This phone has a small set of teeth inset into the bottom. They can open and close using a hinge set into the rear of the cover. When an incoming call is detected the teeth start snapping manically. If the phone is left on a table it will move and jump about menacingly until you answer it.
Mind
your fingers.

What I imagined...

This would make a good pager too! Would you need to put your ear between the teeth to answer it? |
|

Don't do that [bung]. It's not dangerous, but it will hurt. |
|
|
Simple, useless, entertaining. [+] |

I imagined this as a set of wind-up teeth that clacked instead of ringing, and hinged open like a clamshell to become the headset. I'm bunning that, rather than that (rather scary) picture... |

"Sorry, no, it's not a bad connection; I just got my phone out of my purse and it has a mouthful of chewing gum..." [+] |

That's how it started out [moom], but it went a bit sinister in photoshop. |
|
|
Only logical. The vibrate function has found many alternative uses already... |
|
|
Will it nibble at fleas? Woof. |
|

Sorry, if this thing rang I'd be faster than lightning when reach for the cricket bat. I'd be hitting it out the ground rather than answering it. |

Just can't keep away from that ol' Photoshop... <linky> |
|

didn't this happen in a scene from cronenberg's videodrome? |
|

I don't know, but it's obviously a film I need to see. |
