It seems unclear whether the non-smoking indoor rules apply to e-cigarettes. I've asked the Department of Health and they are checking.

Would you buy them in Hong Kong? What do you mean by "psychological elements"? I met a guy who said he like the action of smoking an e-cigarette.

Sane people smoke real cigarettes or quit smoking alltogether (IMHO).

I can't believe this....? E-cigarettes, now this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of!

As an ex-smoker, and maybe other ex-smokers might agree with me, one of the nicest things about quitting is not being a slave to something; having to carry all the paraphernalia of smoking around with you. Now you can plug your cigarette into a USB??

Wow, quitting is hard, really hard; You already look like a dumbass when you're smoking, think how much of complete tw%t you're going to look using this absurdity. Quit for f*cks sake.
