Unusual mobile phone applications number 1

BBC News (9 Nov) report that fears of being buried alive have prompted an increasing number of people to take their mobile phones to their graves, according to an Irish undertaker.

I suppose the next thing might be internet-enabled coffins.
Thanks to Michael Murtagh from the Northern Ireland e-government unit for spotting this.
