If you want to look cool, but have no money, then, my friend, the iFraud (tm) is for you. It consists of a white pair of headphones that don't actually plug into anything (just your pocket) to mimic iPod users, a small circuit that mimics the most classic cheesy cell phone rings to go off at regular intervals (like in the middle of a meeting/class), and a PDA/PocketPC like device, complete with stylus, but no internal electronics.. You can be the most hip kat in town, and only pay about $10. (and no monthly phone/iTunes bills!)-- kumpf, Mar 03 2005 (?) Looks like an iPod http://www.ipodloun...php?id=2719_0_7_0_C [not_only_but_also, Mar 04 2005] They should send you fake bills, too, so that you can show them to others & chat about the prices.-- phundug, Mar 03 2005 Bills as thick as phone books for extra status.
Perhaps this could be manufactured and marketed by the same company that makes those fake security cameras.-- bristolz, Mar 03 2005 excuse me, I just gotta take this call, be right back.-- zeno, Mar 04 2005 Hilarious. This is the techie's version of fake Louis Vuitton bags. I like [phundug]'s fake bills bit, too.-- Machiavelli, Mar 04 2005 oh, and how about some of those "Authentic" stickers to put on the bills of all of my hats to give them that fresh "in" look. :)-- kumpf, Mar 04 2005 Oddly enough, I used to do this on the bus to avoid having to talk to some of the crazies that like to chat about their love of trucks/hookers/baking soda/and the ever so enjoyable 25 Minute Story About Getting the Clap. It's even better when you get to make up your own words to sing along with. "Yeah yeah I just stabbed somebody. Yeah yeah then I took his wallet. Yeah yeah I'm gonna do it again and there's nothing you can do to stop me, my friend."-- AfroAssault, Mar 04 2005 It's ironic that it's exactly those sort of people that I avoid on the bus.-- wagster, Mar 04 2005 Get mugged and have the last laugh!-- calum, Mar 04 2005 random, halfbakery
