Who says innovation is dead?
Now we just need a major phone producer to pick up this idea!
I love Deal Extreme.
what you dont see is the wire trailing the 30 feet to the phone...
i'm sure this will inspire more chinese upskirt fetish websites now.
Now easier to get upskirts.
Ha 2/3 comments about upskirts...what a classy readership you have Engadget
3/5 Now. you can mention upskirts but no one else can.
...and now you just made it 3 out of 4!
Damn now its 3/6.
Why think it when you can post it on a gadget blog!
I'm not that twisted sadly... one day I shall be not today.
It's too FUGLY to get up a NICE skirt. Sorry but true. It's better to pay a fee to record under the skirt for better quality shots...

Fusion Fuzo
YOU'RE too ugly to get a nice upskirt...
What?
Go home.
@Mr "Professional" (lol)
It should be something more along these lines:
You are too ugly to get up any nice skirt.. actually, scratch that.. You are too ugly to get up any skirt at all.. and no, your mom doesn't count..
Im Professional I see up many skirts for cash, the proffessional way

Yes, tape the cam to your foot, and stick that leg out.
alex, right on
@Alex,
Classic!
People did it with little mirrors on the top of their shoes, before this phone was invented.
30 feet? Sounds like Bluetooth to me, then.
This is truly great.
The shenanigans one can get up to with this are endless...oh wait, 2 megapixel camera with poor low light capabilities probably.
I swear to God I'm going to pistol whip the next guy who says, " Shenanigans."
Hey RemDX what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?
You mean Shenanigans?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
:>0
shenanigans | sh əˈnanəgənz | plural noun informal
-- secret or dishonest activity or maneuvering
I'm not saying I like the recent overuse of the word, but it's definitely used correctly here. It's not just the name of a fictional restaurant.
Oh dear, I seem to have misplaced my phone camera.
Haha im just wondering how it went from 2/3 to down to 3/5 up to 3/4 down to 3/6
Math is hard....
Hey Kris, i was just kidding
Mr. Blurrycam's weapon of choice.
That is seriously cool. And here's another cool use for it. You could snap the camera out and leave it in your car when going somewhere that doesn't allow cameraphones (courthouse, etc.) then just snap it back in when you leave. Perfect for someone who wants a cameraphone, but frequents places where they aren't allowed.
Just in case I ever decide to take up employment in the Pentagon.
I don't know what court house your going to... but sorry court houses don't allow phones periode.
Is a nice idea, pity that it will either end up broken/lost/bad picture quality.
Wow... think of the possibilities! Endless........
hair pie!
But, that's MY pie! :(
Nerds and their Revenge, FTW!!
Does Engadget have so much experience reviewing phones that they can tell the quality of the phone by looking at it's back - no,a PICTURE of it's back?
Yes
I think the coolest idea of this is if applied to other phones is upgradable options in the future. Think about switching out the modules for other feature set. Like a 8 mp cam or music hard drive , gps, or what ever.
I've thought of this before myself, but the industry would never allow it. Lets just say the "Want a better camera? Here's a better phone" concept isn't really flawed as far as their concerned.
this should be filed under 'keeping it real fake'
that's no Casio Exilim. it's a JingPeng Exilim.
Yea, good idea.
think about all the business users who are not allowed to use a mobile phone with a camera in their company.
this would be a cool way to update some parts of a mobile phone (if they would work so long hehe)
Wow, even the company that sells these devices rips off another company's logos.
Not 2 Megapixel just 300k.
Keeping it real fake indeed.

Wow, what an awesome idea :D
also, are those instructions on how to remove the camera placed UNDER it?
most bodacious
They love those upskirts over there.
" 2 x "3800mAh" lithium ion rechargeable batteries"
Did anyone catch this in the specs on the site? I wonder how long this thing can run on a full charge... because to put it into perspective I believe the iphone 3g battery is 1300mAH, 3800mAH just seems nuts to me.
Sorry, correction iphone 3g battery is 1600 mAH
I find it amusing that the instructions on how to remove the camera are only revealed once you've actually removed the camera
C'mon, made in China or Japan?
Public toilets are fun again, yahoo!!!!!!
