Japan develops mobile phone with human touch

Japanese researchers said Thursday they have developed a human-shaped mobile phone with a skin-like outer layer that enables users to feel closer to those on the other end. “The mobile phone may feel like the person you are talking to,” the Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International (ATR) said in a press release, describing the gadget as a “revolutionary telecom medium”.

The project is a collaboration between Osaka University, the mobile telephone operator NTT DoCoMo and other institutes. They hope to put it into commercial production within five years by adding image and voice recognition functions.

The prototype, slightly bigger than the size of a palm, features an outer coating that feels like human skin, ATR officials said.

    That “human touch” mobile phone even has boobs! They thought of everything, didn’t they? Kill two birds with one stone?

    Perhaps the slogan should be “cop a feel while you make that call”! Finally, the perfect mobile phone for the man is here! Perhaps the next model will come with a JLo Ass to caress while you make that connection! These guys are brilliant! Considering how many married guys never get any or don’t want any from home, these things should sell like crazy!!
