   Some years ago I got called by a friend, but neither of us could really hear   
   the other.   Turns out he just left his car and was walking away, but his   
   phone was still connected to the cars speakers and microphone.   
      
   Another story I read was where the neigbours of a guy had to call the police   
   because of his sound system blaring at a high level.   Turns out the guy had   
   left and, while walking away, tried to play some music on his phone.  When   
   he could not hear anything he kept upping the volume.  As it turned out his   
   phone was still connected to his home sound system (until out of reach), and   
   he was upping its volume, not his phones.   
      
   iow, bluetooth might be handy, but have it automatically connect can also   
   work against you.
