Vatican warning - mobile phones are killing your soul

   

Round here, mobile phones are known, day to day, as useful tools of communication, and essential devices for the modern human. Over in the Vatican, though, a different view of mobile phones prevails, according to the Telegraph.

According to Father Federico Lombardi, mobile phones are causing ongoing and irreparable damage to people’s souls.

Modu lays off a quarter of their workforce - did they misjudge the mobile phone market?

   

Way back when (well, in February), we ran a story on Modu, a company aiming to bring modular mobile phones to the market. They had potential, they had a fighting spirit, and they had a unique offering for people who wanted something a bit different from their mobile phones. Put simply, they made a tiny little mobile phone module, that you could slot into other ‘jackets’, like a USB Modem sleeve, or a top-end camera phone sleeve, or whatever, the idea being that the jackets gave you your extra features like camera, or media player, and so on.

Pointless invention with a silly name for people with more money than sense - Awethumb!

   

I haven’t done any ’silly concept’ posts for a while, but we have an entire section on this blog dedicated to silly concept mobile phones. Basically, I pick a famous brand name, and vamp about what their concept mobile phone might be like. However, I have to admit defeat and say that I probably can’t come up with a sillier concept than this, fresh from the pages of Engadget Mobile (who, it would seem, have written their entire post with tongue welded into cheek). It’s a set of thumb protectors, that you wear when texting, or using your Blackberry.

And its name? Awethumb.

Oh. Dear. Lord.

The 01Phone - Are we witnessing the future of mobile phones?

   

I’m a great lover of concept mobile phones, as should be readily apparent to anyone who reads this blog. I loves ‘em, and quite frankly, the more ludicrous the better. However… there are two flavours of ludicrous. First, there’s “this phone is completely daft” ludicrous; second, there’s “crikey, if they make this phone, it’ll change Earth’s orbit, it’s so good” ludicrous.

It’s safe to say that the new concept ‘01Phone’ falls very firmly into the second category.

American mobile phone network says T-Mobile G1 is rubbish, everyone else quite likes it

   

By now, most people have heard of the T-Mobile G1. It’s the first Google Android mobile phone, it has that marketplace thing, people queued up for hours on opening day to buy it, and so on. All reports seem to indicate it’s flawed but genius.

Well, all reports except the one by American network, Verizon, who say it’s flawed but rubbish, according to Engadget Mobile.

Nokia concept mobile phone - made of tiny water balloons

   

It always does my heart good to see patently mad ideas for mobile phones. It’s even better when that mad idea is, in fact, completely genius at the same time. Well, that’s case with a new concept mobile phone by Rune Larsen.

According to Softpedia, it has a touchscreen, with built-in, inflatable, balloon-y keys on it…

Mental, but genius.
