Features We'd Like In A Cell Phone
 |
|
Heart-starter Phone - This phone can provide a 180,000 volt shock. Perfect to re-start your heart when you open your phone bill.

Mobile phones are everywhere. They're getting smaller, lighter and smarter.
Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson are fighting it out for cell phone supremacy, and keep adding more and more useless features. Calculator? Who needs that? Currency converter? With the price of calls, who can afford international travel?
There are some features that the next generation of cell phones should have. Here are our favourites.
- Super vibrate- If this feature is enabled, when the phone rings, it gives you super powers. Never miss a call again. The super vibrate phone will shake right through your jeans and onto the floor.
- Predictoscope - You can already see whois calling before you answer. Predictoscope takes caller ID to the next level, and tells you what they want to talk about.
- A full 88-key keyboard - Why settle for polyphonic ring tones wihth you can have an entire piano keyboard in your pocket?
- Videophone - Not the crappy video conferencing of existing phones. This one records TV shows.
- Incomprehenix - Makes the person on the other end of the phone sound like they're talking through a tunnel (note: this feature is already available on many existing phones).
