Protocol at The Langham Place

Thanks to cell phones, hotel telephones are almost as extinct as an actually room key. Not at Hong Kong's hyper luxe The Langham Place, where high tech phones are protocol.

The Langham is the first hotel in the world to install color, touch screen Internet Protocol phones. That's IP phones to all you techno savvy types. The phone not only provides free, worldwide texting and emailing, but hotel wide Wi-Fi, mobile guest room connections, and even streaming video so you can catch the latest video of your cat doing jumping jacks back home on You Tube.

Even better, returning guests can update their preferences online and when they return, find their favorite porn sites and 800 numbers already programmed in. Now that's service.
