you really think if we invented time travel then we couldn't invent a poxy cellular phone that doesn't need satellite/phone masts to work?
But what has time travel got to do scientifically with mobile style comms?
That's not an argument it's wild gesticulation of what science should acheive because we managed to crack time travel? It's now in 2010 theorticly possible to travel forward in time if the physicists are to be believed but people still die from starvation?
Makes no sense

There are people that are intrigued enough to voice their theories.

What I find the 'MOST' disturbing is that there is a zebra with a saddle on it, you can't ride a zebra, they don't like it!

i dont know she looks like the sort of mug that would by an iphone tbh.
get a grip pal. iphone cant get reception in 2010 let alone travel back in time and get it. so it must have been an htc desire.
very true
Apparently if you dial #1928* on a HTC desire you can time travel
That's why there's so few HTC desire owners, theyve all got trapped in the past!

I heard Apple are, at least, going to bring out a new bumper which should help us owners relive the previous day.

P.S. a mobile phone would be useless back then without the satelite system we have today.

satellite system
Very itnerestign, she looks like she is talkign when she turns her face toward the camera, as said msot likely shes talkign to the blok walkign off and covering her face for some reason (ugly as fuck?)
OR maybe Chaplin thought there may be a time when phones woudl become mobile and put it iin his film - a la da vinci and the helicopter etc

The time travellers could just strap an HTC Desire to a satellite, dial #1928* and BOOM! You now have signal in the past.

Maybe she's hiding a goiter and telling the camera operator to piss off?

exactly right
there is the speed of light and thats all.

It really is that simple. If we want to travel into the future, we just need to go fast. Really fast. And I think the only way we're ever likely to do that is by going into space. The fastest manned vehicle in history was Apollo 10. It reached 25,000mph. But to travel in time we'll have to go more than 2,000 times faster. And to do that we'd need a much bigger ship, a truly enormous machine. The ship would have to be big enough to carry a huge amount of fuel, enough to accelerate it to nearly the speed of light. Getting to just beneath the cosmic speed limit would require six whole years at full power.
The initial acceleration would be gentle because the ship would be so big and heavy. But gradually it would pick up speed and soon would be covering massive distances. In one week it would have reached the outer planets. After two years it would reach half-light speed and be far outside our solar system. Two years later it would be travelling at 90 per cent of the speed of light. Around 30 trillion miles away from Earth, and four years after launch, the ship would begin to travel in time. For every hour of time on the ship, two would pass on Earth. A similar situation to the spaceship that orbited the massive black hole.
After another two years of full thrust the ship would reach its top speed, 99 per cent of the speed of light. At this speed, a single day on board is a whole year of Earth time. Our ship would be truly flying into the future.
The slowing of time has another benefit. It means we could, in theory, travel extraordinary distances within one lifetime. A trip to the edge of the galaxy would take just 80 years. But the real wonder of our journey is that it reveals just how strange the universe is. It's a universe where time runs at different rates in different places. Where tiny wormholes exist all around us. And where, ultimately, we might use our understanding of physics to become true voyagers through the fourth dimension.

There was something similar to that theory where a monorail was theoretically built around the equator

Can you remember when a digital clock was set at the exact time as one on the ground, the other was placed in a commercial airline and flown around. When they landed the two clocks had different times!?
This bloke explains it, sort of, fell asleep half way through

It's happening all the time, on a large scale with GPS satellites, on a small scale with time being different for everybody, although at an almost non existent amount.
