These are probably one of the only 'show off' accessories that I actually like. I'm far from being a boy racer but do like the blingness of them.

I've never seen or heard of such a thing. Can someone describe them or post a picture?

Personally, I'm quite fond of those lights. Every time I see someone with a phone decked out like a christmas tree, I feel better about myself.

Because I know at the end of time, when everything is said and done, God will take all of those people aside and ask them what they were thinking. And when that time comes, I will be standing on the other side of the room, laughing at them.

grrr - those lights are in the same league as cars with small blue lights at the front - 'cause the driver wants to pretent he's a copper. Ironically enough said driver is usually one that doesn't like coppers

I hate lights on cell phones. It's just really distracting when your with other people to see those lights.

The government has been cracking down heavily on smokers lately. "Second hand smoke" is apparently a pollutant. Maybe we can get them to ban "light pollution". That sorta flashing could send an epilleptic into seizures. That can't be healthy.

Here's an example of the lights everyone's talking about: http://www.daydeal.com/files/images2/e315colorbat.jpg
Personally, I think they work for a certain kind of person. I just don't happen to be that kind of person...

If they were to ban light pollution, they would have to turn off all street lights, ban all casinos and their fancy lights and probably ban large buildings xD. However, if you ever go out into a place at night with no lights, you can really see a lot of stars. I'd rather live in a no-light place than a place where its permeanently day.

^Same thing here. Didn't know it had the lights when I got it either, then my phone rang and I saw all these lights in the corner of my eye, lol. I actually like it though.

I saw some guy with one of these and loved it. I have to say if it was my phone I would easily get annoyed with all the blinking.

I cant stand these little light add-ons. It makes phones look really stupid - how people can think it looks good I will never know!

It takes a certain mindset. I know a guy in his fifties, maybe close to sixty, who would probably add these to his phone if he knew about them. He's just that kinda guy.
