iPhone-like device for the rest of us
Posted in This Just In... on April 21st, 2009 by gkrakow
Do you feel bad about not owning an iPhone? Is it that you don’t want to be like everyone else? Or maybe you’d rather not switch carriers. Or you don’t want to spend $200-$300 – plus nearly $100 per month – for a cell phone? Then again, maybe you refuse to use a cell phone at all.
Have no fear, the i-wood is here. Not to be confused with the late, great Elwood (my sadly-missed Weimaraner who actually had his own personal Website/blog back in 1997) the i-wood is exactly what it looks like: a piece of wood!
Model number is 3B — which is super, secret code for 3 layers of bamboo. When everyone else around you takes out their iPhones you can whip out your i-wood and tap along with them.
i-wood’s marketeers put it this way:
“With our exclusive 3B technology, fast connection speeds, support for those of us who live in reality, and our all new applications, i-wood is the all-in-one solution you have been looking for. It will help you redefine your relationships wih people by showing them how truly irritating they, and their portable devices, have become.”
The i-wood weighs next to nothing and costs about the same: $10 via the Website’s PayPal shop.
