USB Ferris Wheel Phone Stand shocks and awes

Unfortunately, we've no idea exactly what mobiles are compatible with ConnectLand's USB Ferris Wheel Phone Stand (aside from the HTC Touch, obviously), but we're all probably better off that way. This undoubtedly bizarre device can be powered via USB or a pair of AA cells, and it sports an incoming phone call alarm in the form of... wait for it... a spinning Ferris Wheel. That's right kids, whenever your handset receives a call, the wheel starts to spin and LEDs begin to flash, giving you plenty of motivation to hand out your number to anyone who will call it. Those with money to burn can snap one up for $27, but if you're that curious to see how this thing works, why not save your dough and peek the (intensely boring) video after the jump?

Look it's the London Eye!

[flaming_ghost_ @ Oct 31st 2007 6:54PM]

Look is another piece of chinese junk!!

[Homeboy @ Oct 31st 2007 6:48PM]

Cool but if I hear that sound when I feel a little PMS-ish that thing would end up in the nearest wall.

[Carbonize @ Oct 31st 2007 7:16PM]

Contemplates the idea of someone called homeBOY suffering from PMS.

[Oskin @ Nov 1st 2007 11:07AM]

PMS-ish... ish... Tell me if i'm wrong but i'd say he means when he is cranky more than that he's an actual girl... But I could be wrong

[Sirocco @ Oct 31st 2007 6:57PM]

It's a rainbow of fun.

[ben @ Oct 31st 2007 6:57PM]

Thats kind of trippy in an odd way...

[holycow @ Oct 31st 2007 6:57PM]

wouldve been better if it just SPUN (without the music), and have the ringtone come out of the phones speaker.

[endlessoul @ Oct 31st 2007 7:29PM]

OR find some way to pipe the phone's ringtone through its speakers.

[holycow @ Oct 31st 2007 7:39PM]

oh damn i just read what i wrote.. i meant
...and have the phones ringtone come out of the speaker.

i put "phone" in the wrong spot

[onin @ Oct 31st 2007 6:59PM]

I'll fall back to sleep before I can answer the phone. rock a by baby =)

[grjohnston @ Oct 31st 2007 7:02PM]

When I heard the phone's ringtone start playing, I was first annoyed, and then thought "who's going to win?" and then it was definitely "Rock-a-bye Baby," by sheer perseverance. Yay classics, boo new stuff.

It's almost as horrible as Hello Kitty's gadgets.

[Drew @ Oct 31st 2007 7:42PM]

That's sooo obnoxious....

[Lemmiwinks @ Oct 31st 2007 7:43PM]

Great. Now I'm terrified of clowns again. $12K worth of therapy, down the drain.

[Slashy the Clown @ Oct 31st 2007 9:18PM]

I'm coming for you in your sleep...

[Wolfticket @ Oct 31st 2007 7:56PM]

I probably works with all phones as it is probably one of those cheapo things that activates on the interference you get when your phone takes and incoming call next to a speaker or something id imagine. I'm going dressed as one next halloween.

[Tired_ @ Oct 31st 2007 8:11PM]

This would be cool if you were deaf...and, for some reason, had a hearing-required-style phone.

[Syd @ Oct 31st 2007 8:45PM]

And then what? Hello? Hello? Anyone there? Why can't I hear you?

Maybe it's cause I am deaf?

[Dan @ Oct 31st 2007 8:47PM]

I see this as a pioneer in the area of graphic notification. Before long we should see fish quivering/jabbering, monsters waving, phalli getting erect, etc, etc. More, more!

[Syd @ Oct 31st 2007 8:53PM]

What? Your phalli didn't already get stimulated indirectly by looking at the Ferris wheel spinning?

If mine lasts more than 4 hours, I'm seeing a doctor...

[Miron Chereshnev @ Nov 1st 2007 2:19AM]

@Syd
Phalli is a plural.
I hope that was a typo...

[CUBSWILLWIN @ Oct 31st 2007 10:09PM]

stop yar darn advartesin ya whipper snapper!!
Sorry in the mood today =D

[inMyOpinion @ Oct 31st 2007 10:20PM]

it would be a REALLY GOOD LAPTOP if it had and LED flashing ferris wheel, but that would take up your one USB port thus making it just a good laptop... its a bit of a catch-22

[jorge @ Oct 31st 2007 10:28PM]

not new. A few years ago if you bought a certain sony ericsson phone in china, Taiwan or hong kong you get one for free with sony ericsson brand on it.

[Wolfticket @ Oct 31st 2007 11:48PM]

Would you buy from a man who spams on a USB Ferris Wheel page and spells the word manual "manuel"?

[Jeremy @ Oct 31st 2007 11:52PM]

Well, after watching that I can see no reason why someone wouldn't want that.

[tekdroid @ Nov 1st 2007 1:44AM]

sure, this is nice, but it's no dancing sound-activated flower, who were decades before their time.

;)

[Galley @ Nov 1st 2007 8:38AM]

That truly is, the epitome of excitement!

[Student Driver @ Nov 1st 2007 2:16PM]

Fine, now I want my Bluetooth Rollercoaster. Obviously it needs to be 2.0+EDR in case I'm bored on my patio.
