Modu's T-Phone captured in the wild chilling with Android? (video)

Look everyone, it's the littlest handset come to deliver Android cheer. Last month we got word that Modu was working on a touchscreen device dubbed the T-Phone, featuring full 3G and microSD expansion, also referred to as the Modu 2. Now we have video of what looks to be the same phone out in the wild, running an early version of Android (possibly 1.6) and looking rather fit next to an iPhone and an HTC G2. Curiously, this is said to be lacking 3G data entirely, only pulling data over WiFi, but we have to think that's just an issue with this prototype and not something that will be a feature of the retail release. It also sports FM tuning and, curiously, a stylus -- resistive ahoy? We'll have to wait and see.

Holy Santa Claus Shit, is that small or what?

[SolidSnake Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:40AM]

Looks like a VERY small Droid.

[pankomputerek Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:47AM]

@PrepaidAndroidUSA I bet it's smaller than the world's "smallest" android phone as claimed by SE.

[geekthree Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:51AM]

@PrepaidAndroidUSA I believe the term that best describes this is "chode".

@PrepaidAndroidUSA
That's what she said.

@PrepaidAndroidUSA

Screen size? Resolution? Come on, Engadget, do at least a little bit of research.

Also, the source says that there is no 3g at all.

@threpac
The article says that too. Just saying.

[MrFluffyThing Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:23PM]

@PrepaidAndroidUSA For some reason i think of Zoolander...

[DefPoet Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:39AM]

OG Droid min?

[pankomputerek Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:46AM]

Now... Who will want that?
It's cheap-ass kids phone right?

[DefPoet Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:02AM]

@pankomputerek
NO it is a developers tinkerers dream device it can connect to other modules and do just about anything

[LordThree Posted Jul 28th 2010 1:48PM]

@DefPoet That's funny, I'm a developer and tinkerer and I wouldn't walk across the street for a free one of these. He'll, I wouldn't leave the room I was sitting in if you told me that's all I had to do to get a box of these. It's a tiny useless device that will require a pull down magnification plate to use. Then of course if your hands are bigger than a 4 year olds you'd be hard pressed to manipulate it and it will be slipping thru your grip all the time.

[Dev one Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:52AM]

Whoever designed that thing should be removed from the building.

[Dell Discount Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:00AM]

I'm such a Phandroid! :-)

[Robhimself Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:00AM]

Wow. Where's the stylus?

[Doml Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:37AM]

@Robhimself capacitive screen , no stylus needed xD

[Robhimself Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:48AM]

@Doml I'm pretty sure infant fingers are still too large for this phone. Forget ever having to type on it unless you have really small hands.

[Mobile Broadband Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:02AM]

@pankomputerek

LMFAO!

[Endrowid Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:10AM]

That's where she got confused.

[Professor Hubert J Farnsworth Posted Jul 28th 2010 8:43AM]

0:30 - mmm, I love them thick. Double entendre intended.

[thisNthat Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:06AM]

That's sweet! An Anti-Evo 4G!

Me want as 2nd phone

[Prevacator Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:31AM]

Nice Droid-esque lip there.

[RomanAM17 Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:32AM]

This just screams failure.

[BobVeeTech Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:45AM]

It's so small that it's gross.

[SamTime Posted Jul 28th 2010 10:34AM]

WTF did u just call that magic/sapphire a G2? Tim Stevens -1

[mosamjc Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:22AM]

My aria is just the right size. If it was any larger it wouldn't fit in her...pocket.

[Predaking82 Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:37AM]

I think it's dope. I just hope I don't confuse it with my throwing stars when I am on a mission.

[ajkovar576 Posted Jul 28th 2010 12:26PM]

finally i have a phone i can give to a baby

[jeeps Posted Jul 28th 2010 1:12PM]

Not mentioned is that in the 1 minute and 42 seconds total of that video the battery went from 100% to 3%.

[wisausnk Posted Jul 28th 2010 1:59PM]

A Smal Thick Phone for Women ;)

[typesett Posted Jul 28th 2010 3:23PM]

I wonder if form factor is the next innovation... we have medium and large... what is "small"

[weinerschnitzelboy Posted Jul 28th 2010 3:36PM]

Looks like a droid knockoff, but a lot smaller.

[TheAntithesis Posted Jul 29th 2010 2:37PM]

For those of you wondering, the babbling in the video includes key information such as "Turn of the fluorescent lights" and "Now we're talking!" remarks.
Nothing useful, although the guys filming are clearly Israeli, making it more likely that this is actually a modu prototype.
