Operator, this is Bluetooth calling

It's a time-worn formula in the retail business, especially when designers run out of ideas: Update an old product and call it retro chic.

ThinkGeek has done just that, with this Bluetooth retro handset, an updated version of the corded model introduced earlier that also works with mobile phones. Why? We have no idea, but it would make a perfect complement to the updated Princess phone in the next room.

After you're done yapping, you can head to a drive-in movie.

OK new question. . .

the designer should embed the entire cellular in the retro handset. one less device to carry.

no thank you

I didn't like the old phone and remaking it with new tech makes it just that worst.

Retro Comfort

I can say that these old handsets were VERY much more comfortable while talking & using my hands. But of course the over the ear Bluetooth is so much better, why would anyone want to crane their neck even the slightest just to use this?
