> If you're robbing an iPhone user, you'd probably be safe hacking off a thumb. Can't imagine many people give up the convenience of using their thumbs to unlock.

Anecdotal, but I know people who have configured only the index finger to unlock the phone because they prefer it to the thumb.

If you wanna know something and he won't tell you, cut off one of his fingers. The little one. Then tell him his thumb's next. After that he'll tell you if he wears ladies underwear.
