    Many people tend to do other things like walking, reading or even cooking, when they are on their mobile phone.

    Get away from it all with the mobile with a difference
    But does that mean you are not really concentrating on the conversation itself?

    Researchers have come up with a device that effectively shuts out the outside world, leaving you to focus on what you are saying.

    Haha, that's insane. But it's true, sometimes you can put the phone down and just after doing so you ask yourself "what?" having talked to someone but not taken in anything they've said.
