Fujitsu's Latest Mobile Phone Splits In Two

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the i-lost-my-keyboard-now-what dept.

angry tapir writes with news of Fujitsu's new phone which is taking the sliding phone keyboard a step further by allowing it to detach completely. "The F-04B was announced as part of NTT DoCoMo's new line-up and is scheduled to hit Japanese shelves in March or April next year. At first glance it looks like a conventional slider cell phone: grab onto the bottom of the phone and a numeric keypad slides out. But decouple a catch and the entire back half of the phone can be pulled off."

    Now you'll have TWO overpriced batteries to replace instead of just one!

    Are YOU using the TOOL, or is the TOOL using YOU? Think about it!

    It is so that you can lose one part and have to purchase a replacement for it, only to find it in your couch months later.
