Prisoners Don’t Like To Put iPhones Up Their Arses

According to a Folsom Prison guard, the iPhone is not a very popular smuggled-in phone among convicts. It’s hard to smuggle it inside the prison because “they take too much… real estate.”

The question now is: would the new iPhone 5 form factor increase Apple’s market share in the US prison system? And how popular is the 5.3-inch Samsung Note? [Twitter]

    I would think they would want a phone that lasts more than 24 hours on a single charge anyway.

    I’m trying not to think of the pain involved with any object up there… Plus what if you heard it ringing whilst it’s up there… insert digit press hold, keep finger out of nose! #]
