And you thought is was just a phone
posted by hdittmer at 2:05 AM
For some people a mobile phone is just a way to communicate. If you visit Tokyo's Harajuku district you will come away with a distinctly different impression. You will find racks of phone covers that look more like tie racks than phone displays. You will see pens for writing on the housing of your phone. Then there is the service in Seoul that will shrink wrap you phone with a digital image of your choice. Maybe you prefer the phone painting service or the tables full of phone charms. Of course there is always the stickers for the phone and the radio control toy tank you can drive with your mobile phone. If all else fails how about the ad on the Japanese subway that suggest you "Find a husband on your mobile phone!". So how do you top that?
