Model Car Cell Phone

Cellular phones shaped like favorite automobiles

A cellular phone that looks like the car you drive or wish you drove becomes a conversation piece in more ways than one. Keypad and display are placed on car's underside. Headlights and taillights illuminate with incoming calls. Somewhere on the order of 1/40 scale could swallow contemporary cellular electronics and result in a usable yet pocketable size.

       A chassis-shaped fascia might be quite delightful, especially if you could incorporate the car alarm beeper into it.   

       I have to insist that the car be pull-back, for races across the desk at work.

       And the pullback mechanism could also incorporate a recharger.

       I think a model car mouse would work as well. +
