In the easter eggs it says that you can find out what is in the un-opened FedEx package. I don't have the DVD, but what's in the package? [According to imdb.com, "Robert Zemeckis was asked at a Q&A session at USC what was in the unopened packaged. He replied that it was a waterproof, solar-powered, satellite phone."]

[No one knows what was in the package. I think Jack doesn't open it in order to keep his sanity. The package is his only link to his life before being stranded, working for FedEx and making sure packages get delivered. He was determined to make sure it got delivered just as he was determined to survive and get back to civilization. Success in one meant success in the other.]You may also like: Cloverfield | Star Wars | Terminator 2: Judgment Day | I Am Legend | The Simpsons Movie
