iphone killer, with the right weapons in hand of course.
m$'s phune could end up looking a lot like a teddy bear.....
where is the mic again?
1.vibrating teddy bear, 2. sexy asian chick..............hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
p.s. of course they will hold it against their ears in public.
I'm not sure she can fit that bear in her cha-cha. Not sure she would want to, either.
On a side note that's completely related to this tech: teddy bear + bluetooth headset = the above.
Sidetalkin'!!

Thanks mate, I had some good laughs here. That's the best comment! Ever!
They couldn't pay me $199 to use that thing, let alone have me shell it out to them.
At least the apple fanboys now know how we feel about the iPhone.
looks like a stupid/fool/idiot...etc. (please add more ~)
no one is courageous enough to produce a cellphone shaped like a dildo, with customizable vibrate function (set interval and intensity of vibration)
Heck, that would take phone sex to a whole new level!
Of course, a Beach Boys ringtone would be standard...
"I'm diggin up good vibrations..."
I cant bear it.
Is she fur real?
Is she fur real?
ok, this is me leaving.
is this the first time a double post has been high ranked instead of low ranked?
That lady, shes talking into that teddy bears crotch!
Aw man, I was going to say something about that!
Maybe I can follow off with, "The last thing we need is Asian chicks talking into animals' crotches."
It needs a red, flexible, telescoping boom mic (furry of course). Here comes the lipstick!
This would be a great product for young children. They are more likely to hold on to a teddy-bear than a mobile, it could easily be programmed to phone mum.
I don't care how 'sensible' it seems...I'm not having my kid talk into a teddy bears crotch.
I still can't believe it. If this is not some late/early April fools then...wow, just wow.
That's an ugly bear though.
Ha-Ha-Ha.
If it's Japan then we can be sure that the concept is a pun on phone of one of the main characters in Macross Frontier TV show (anime):

the green thing is phone and teddy bear (well, it's not a bear) at the same time. On the picture it actually also has a hologram of her brother's avatar (skull): in the frame the teddy bear is playing voice message from him.
How cute :)
I think it is too big.
It looks like she's talking to teddy's privates.
Can't they modify it so you don't have to speak to the teddy bear's penis?
what penis?
someone adds a phone to an innocent stuffed toy and suddenly we have some of the filthiest comments anywhere... and that's the people against the idea!
if the teddy has a speaker phone, then she can put it down, and talk to the teddy bear "normally". just make sure you dont have a friend named teddy, "hey teddy! how are you doin today!"
Only in Japan.
"mushi, mushi..."
I would like to hold that asian check against my ear and make a call. :)
and talk to her crotch huh? well, me too :D
"Hello? Are you ok? I'll get you out of there as soon as I find a scalpel!" - Teddy ate her baby...
Welcome to 4chan!.
Talk about being ridiculous and amusing at the same time.
Will this make it to the States?
Man I just look forward to reading the comments.
It just makes my day.
Why has no one commented on the first line of the article, "but this one is just too darn cute to call weird"? Excuse me? This is the very definition of weird... and stupid.
pedobear, is that you?
