Sky News reports that a British snowboarder, buried alive by an avalanche in the French Alps, has been saved by the light from his mobile phone.
"Tapped at almost 5,000ft he managed to phone a friend who raised the alarm. But as darkness fell he still had not been found.
His would-be rescuers rang him and told him to use the light from his mobile to guide the helicopter in."

Now if he'd upgraded to a Cyber-shot phone, he'd be regreting it.

i must agree, the flash on the SE's phones is nice, but the light is a nice extra that many people appriciate.

you should expect people to carry any equipment to prevent situations like that
but it's a nice use for a phone.'
I'd say it was a W810 with 'S.O.S. light' feature ;'-)
