3GWeek - Asia’s Mobile News

I’ve never ever read Dan Brown’s magnum opus, Da Vinci Code before. So it will be a little difficult for me to describe and associate this cellphone here in 3GWeek. But never mind, I guess most of you has read the book at least for once.

And if only you read the book, please imagine what should Opus Dei’s guys did with this no-named-yet concept cellphone. Well, if you confuse to do it, Anthony James from Yanko Design has already help you actually. Here is the description.

This phone called “_______” (yup, it has no name) uses haptic technology to provide physical feedback for making a call. To turn it on…twist a section, to dial a number…twist a bunch of sections, to make an international call…break your wrist! There is no display and no buttons. The vibrate feature should prove popular with 50% of the world’s population.

And here is what the designer (Marc Schömann) said about his creation.

You turn the dial of every element to the desired cipher. If you entered the number you turn the first segment “to phone” (green LED). If you want to hang up the call you turn the first segment to “hang up” (red LED). The phone works without buttons and without a display and based on the old dial phones.

Note:

I need it not! Are you?
