Cigarette pack handsfree headset is bizarre, remarkably addictive
Maybe it's just because we had a rough weekend, but we've yet to piece together what the purpose of this device is. Officially, it's a novelty cigarette pack-shaped earphone headset for Nokia / Samsung / Sony Ericsson mobiles. That's to say it enables you to just talk into the pack rather than into your phone. At just $6.79, we'd love to say this would at least make a good gag gift, but honestly, we can't figure out what's to "get." Hmmph.[Via Gearfuse]
Finally, the cigarette pack phone
We're not even gonna bother with full specs here -- the only three you need to know are "phone," "cigarettes," and "lighter." The Cigarette King 8383 gives an entirely new meaning to the term "all-in-one" by curiously combining all three products into a single package that takes its design cues from a local brand of smokes. Open up the flip top, and voilà, seven cancer sticks and fire at your disposal! You should be able to find this among countless other oddities in Hong Kong's Sin Tat Square, and word has it they even throw in real cigs with the purchase. If it scolded you mercilessly (or even better, blocked you from calling and texting for a while) every time you lit up, it could be a decent quitting tool, could it not?[Thanks, Paul]
