Mobile phone with rotating camera on its top is no longer a concept
Thanks for people of the giant China for your great 2008 Summer Olympic ceremony and this awesome new slider handset. What makes this handset cool is pretty much obvious; the rotating camera! Note that this time it is appeared on the top of the phone itself. Means that It will ease its users to search the best angle for capturing their photos.
Dusan from IntoMobile has pointed out to something important on this handset. However, it is not on the rotating camera itself yet on the possibility of its creator to be sued by Nokia for infringing their patent. As a comparison, IntoMobile has a post that showed us a sketch of their own top-rotating camera mobile phone. It was published on December 3rd, 2007.
I myself personally felt nothing on this patent case since …. hey they are Chinese right? Not only iPhone did they imitate but others too. Nokia is not an exception here. Unfortunately! Bravo China ……

regardless the patent issue (boring bite to consumers), the design idea is good!
