fits right into engadgets princess and unicorn themed room eh?
Dang it, they stole my idea... Now what the heck am I supposed to do with all these dead Tribbles?
I wanna cuddle and huddle it until... well, you know.
until someone calls?
something like that :P
till you jizz in ur pantz? :D
How could anyone think that looks nice?
kitsch!
reminds me of something paris hilton would like
its not for looks, its for the ergonomics..
Sir Elton's got a new phone on his wish list!
I'd get a landline just to feed this animal!
I'd get a landmine just to feed this animal!
Fixed it for you.
Who's talking about furries -_-;
100m get
Never furget
I see what you did there.
Somebody call the MPA (Muppet Protection Agency), now not only killed to make coats and hats, but now household gadgets.
How do you clean it when the fur gets dirty?
Use your bluetooth headset for phone sex. Duh.
Lol wut

[irrelevant and misplaced post]
[Killer Instinct announcement]
oh god engadget's comments are starting to turn into digg's.
[apple fanboi retort]
Manah Manah
Eyes. It needs eyes. Then it's furrrfect!
As long as it isn't what I thought it was....
mmm... that would totally fit with my moustache.
Oh no, they killed a Tribble for this phone!
This is nothing but a blatant iPhone copy. Flashy and covered with fluff.
OHHHHHHHH SNAP!
Where the details Engadget? Maybe I just found my next must have office accessory and MUST buy it!
BTW: it would fit right in with my princess and unicorn themed cubical.
Is it actually a rotary phone or is it just a rotary phone imposter?
um... is anyone else oddly aroused by this thing?
Nope,just you...
Rest of us modern men like our forests deforested :>
Very much just you....well you and the random Furby and tickle me Elmo that is browsing Engadget.
it looks like furby had sex with miss.teen america and made a deformed child. ha.
Nah, no real fur.
Is that a Muppet?
its soooooo horrible lol
Where's Paris when you need her............
If this were USB or Bluetooth, I might have to actually get this. If only to piss others off.
I just hope I can dial it with a pencil.
All it needs is a Hello Kitty face and it would be purrrrrrect.
To clean it just throw the whole thing in the washer.
dare i say this phone is...Fabulous?
Elton John has 3 preordered.
Harmony Kendall, your phone has arrived. :-P
Oh yeah man!!!
If the price is right I can totally see myself buying a few of those to give as birthday or Xmas presents; what the hell, I would even keep one for myself.
This designer definitely has a sense of humor and it created something that can't be easily forgotten (even though one whish he could).
Great.
It should be chosen as the iconic product of CES '09.
Valentine's day is just around the corner. Get one for your sweetheart now. And risked being beaten to deal with it.

like i so totally need this.
and every other middle school whore
Hey, I didn't know Vertu had released another phone.
Not sure about Elton having three on preorder, but I'd be willing to bet Mariah Carey picks one of these bad boys up.
We're Elle and Bruiser and we approve this phone.
Things to do today: 1) Take out the trash
2) give my phone a flea-dip
The designer of this phone sure has a sense of humor. By calling this Crapgadget, it's obvious that the editors of Engadget don't.
Is that REAL plastic? The thing looks really cheap and tacky, but the big question is does it have call waiting and redial!
I really like this phone....well only a girl who is sophisticated would want this phone! I mean just look at it! and i am serious! only glamorous people deserve it!
jk lol i mean just look at it who would want to wake up to that in the morning if it is next to their bed!
looks like paris hilton shit a phone.
Looks like something for pimps.
I prefer my phone shaved.
