Morphing Modu phone: it’s a player, picture frame, broach, pterodactyl

Modu is ready to show the world their ideas on how cell phones should be. Their concept is the “guts” of the phone (that is it in the center of the photo) should be allowed to move into new housings, preserving the basic phone functionality but allowing new features specific to that housing. Follow?

The base Modu phone is a small thin chip-like unit. This unit, dubbed “lightest cell phone” by the Guiness World Records, slides into all the jackets or could be used by itself. From their site:

By sliding modu into a wide range of phone enclosures & consumer electronic devices modu enables consumers to create an entirely new personal communication experience and meet their ever changing needs, preferences and style.
