Who says technology is just for guys?

The Imobile phoneV588 looks like something that came out of Disney’s Totally Spies cartoon. But this one is real. Alternatively called the G88i, this mobile phone is a compact face powder case. For the guys, this is the one your ladies use when they want to powder their noses. This unique dual-band GSM phone is encased in a circular pop-up lid with a built-in mirror. In it, you will find a 2.6 inch LCD screen which will display information such as contact numbers and text messages. Not just a mobile phone but it is a MP3 /MP4 player and USB connectivity. We’re thinking this is how you can transfer your mp3/mp4 files to and from the “compact” phone.

According to reports, this lovely phone can record video, can listen to music via its multiple speakers and send and receive files using its Bluetooth capabilities.

What could have been cool would be to use the mirror side of the compact as a display unit. Unfortunately, the mirror is just a mirror. Nothing fancy. But at least you can watch yourself while you text. Not to ordinary compact powder case, I suppose.

Who would actually buy this phone is my guess? Does this unit really meet a need or is it just something cute and fancy to have?

The unit is on sale for $120. Make-up sold separately.
