Yea, his side of the conversation was pretty clear before he hung up "Can you hear me?". Odd that a cell phone would TRANSMIT fine, but not pick up the RETURN signal.
In fact, quite unbelievable given the difference in signal strength.
Every time I lose cell connection, I can hear the land-line person, but they don't hear me.
Give the guy a break. He was losing the argument and had to have a way out to save face, so his "cell dropped the call". ;) Heh heh heh.
