The Ultimate Geek Christmas Card

An anonymous reader writes "CNET reports on the world's most geeky Christmas card, and also the most expensive. The card is made out of a 1st gen iPhone, hacked into a Christmas card using cardboard, paper and glue. The card includes a virtual 'bauble' which uses the iPhone's accelerometer to recreate Christmas decorations that bounce and move with the card. The makers of the card say that because of the iPhone's battery life 'you probably don't want to post it anywhere it will take more than 3 days to arrive.'"

I'm part of the development team for this innovative device. The next stage in our progress will be to implement a new operating system, and we have chosen Commo! Linux, as it is the only distribution that is small and robust enough for the task.
