The last paragraph raises the question of why the man had five mobile phones.
Well, it'snot hard to see why. You need an OPTUS one for "YES TIME"
and a 3 phone for your FREE 3 minutes. A Telstra phone for the FREE
calls to your favorite five friends on any network, a SOUL phone so
you can call home free and a Vodafone so you can enjoy the 365 pre-paid plan :)
See - easy!

Japanese police have arrested a suspected gangster after he ignored
an airline captain's order to turn off his five mobile phones as the
plane was taking off.
Naoyuki Shimoda, a 34-year-old DVD sales clerk, was arrested today on
suspicion of violating the Aviation Law by ignoring the captain's
order when he was on board an aircraft taking off from Tokyo's Haneda
airport, a police spokeswoman said.
He was arrested following a police investigation into the incident
which occurred in March.
Shimoda, who was suspected to be linked to a major crime syndicate,
"repeatedly used his mobile phones despite the captain's order not to
use them", the police spokeswoman said.
Following the captain's order, Shimoda said "Shut up! Why don't you
call police" while continuing to use his mobile phones, public
broadcaster NHK reported, citing police sources.
It was the first arrest in Japan for using a mobile phone on an
aircraft in flight and is punishable by a fine of up to Y500,000 ($A5,000).
After the police investigation, Shimoda admitted the offence and told
investigators it took him a while to turn off the mobile phones, NHK reported.
It was not known why he was carrying five phones.
