It seems that each iPhone 5 will have it's own uniquie 10-digit code. This code will allow any two iPhones to instantly connect and the users can communicate in real time. When someone uses your code, your phone will alert, regardless of your wishes.
If anyone finds out your phone's code, they will have the ability to bother you any time they want. This means that a business could bother you just as you are sitting down to dinner with your family, when you're in the middle of a business meeting, or any other time of THEIR choosing!
Rumor also has it that phones using Android and many other operating systems are ready to jump on the bandwagon.
Most disturbing of all, it seems there are several publishers who stand ready to print books listing your name and 10-digit code. This is a particularly slippery slope because it's only a matter of time before one or more of these publishers decides to put your home address in their book!!!
