Touch Tone Phone iPhone Case

I love the retro gadget look movement; taking old gadgets and using them in new ways or disguising your new gadgets in vintage electronics. That's what we have here with this handsome iPhone case in the design of an old school touch-tone phone (or as we used to call them when they were still relatively new- push button phones). This hand stitched felt case hides a velcro enclosure behind the two buttons from the "headset". There's a hole for your iPhone's headphone wire and even small pocket in the back for the earphones to be stored in. Available on Etsy for $52. At that price I suspect it will be available for a loooong time. Cool retro design though.

Bananaphone! A Bluetooth Headset Shaped Like a Banana

Nothing says class and sophistication like talking into a fake plastic banana. Nothing. Be the envy of your coworkers with this very mature and inconspicuous to use bluetooth headset shaped like a banana. Remember, when you're talking into a banana everyone will think you're crazy. And, little known fact, crazy people can get free entry into pretty much anyplace they want- museums, ball games, etc. Just walk in. Nobody wants to deal with crazy people talking into bananas. Fact. Banana fact.

Chinese Cell Phone is Turned On

This Chinese phone is REALLY turned on. Apparently somebody pushed his buttons just the right way. Mr Phone is VERY happy to see you. How YOU doin' Mr. Phone? If you can get your eyes away from his giant handset for second, you'll notice that he also has less fingers on one hand than the other hand. Lolzzz

Case-Mate ID Holder iPhone Cases

Whether you're going out to the club or just out for jog, sometimes you need to take your iPhone with you and a few other things but you don't want to carry a giant bag or your wallet. That's where these ingenious iPhone ID Credit Card cases from Case-Mate come in. They simply added a small pocket onto the back of a regular iPhone protective case that allows you to slip in your ID, credit card, or some cash. It can hold 2 credit card sized items without adding any significant bulk to phone. Costs $29.95 and comes in a rainbow of color choices. Good idea.

Motorcycle with Sidecar Cell Phone Holder

Here's another desk accessory from the cleverly named Stationary Troops line- it's a motorcycle with a sidecar cell phone holder. Whenever I see a motorcycle sidecar it reminds me of that Indiana Jones movie- is that the most famous sidecar? Probably. Anyway, this mobile phone holder is $19 from Brando and is military themed with a cute little faceless man driving the bike. You could also use it to hold paperclips, rubberbands, or other small office doodads. Maybe even some candy. Mmm candy. It always comes back to candy, right? Very nice.

Golden Buddha Cellphone

The Golden Buddha Cellphone is made of genuine jade, pearl powder lacquer and has a 24k gold plated finish which probably explains it's $1750 cost. Wow! The product description says it's ideal for the successful business woman that wants to announce her elite status to the world." I don't see anything particularly feminine about this phone (well ok, maybe those soft gold curves). It seems equally audacious and gaudy for both men and women, in my opinion.

It does come with a "virtual prayer hall", enabling you to make offerings to various Buddha Illuminati with one of 8 prayers and 5 virtual offerings. I don't know much about the logistics of making a virtual offering but I do know that this clamshell phone also has a camera, video, supports bluetooth and works on GSM at the two frequencies of 900MHz, 1800MHz (sorry, you're outta luck North America!!!).
