Watch Out iPhone: Wood Phone's Here To Kick Your Ass (LINK)

August 12th 2008 06:07
Wooden Mapel Phone


Maple Phone is the creation of two designers who have won silver design 2008 awards. This basically mean they are pretty good at designing shit but not as good as the people who won gold awards.

To me, it looks like they were going down the creative ideas path for this phone, took a wrong turn, completely fu*ked it up and killed everyone in the hypothetical creative ideas car.

The phone does all the usual handset functions as well as the wood having special touch sensitive buttons to "make the wood come to life" - Oh please, the wood already had one shot at life, remember, before you douches chopped it up to turn it into a phone?

The main drive for making phones out of wood is their high recyclability and the overall lower cost of producing wooden phones.

I give this phone 4 out of 10 heaps goods. Who do these designers think they are, Apple? They can't just put a crappy 2MP camera in a doge ass phone and say it's touch sensitive and make people want it. Only Apple can pull that shit off.

Infact if my girl friend gave me this phone as a gift I'd be like "ahw... geez thanks, Tracey. Now get your shit and get out, I'm leaving you". Then I'd burn her tree down because I'd presume she'd have to be a hippy to want to give a gift like this.
