Toshiba's Bizarre Softbank 815T PB RoboPhone
     


Toshiba has created what must be the strangest
mobile phone to date. It comes with a set of articulated legs and
arms that turn it into a Transformer-like toy robot. The phone's display
turns into the robot's face with eyes and mouth. It was made for a
Japanese TV show called "Ketai Sousakan 7" but doubles as a toy for the
kids. I think that TV show title translates as "Mobile Phone
Investigator 7". The phone itself, as if you cared, is a 3G device with
a 3.2 MP
autofocus camera and QVGA screen. An Akihabar
article includes 45 photos of the phone in various  poses, on TV,
and with cute Japanese girls. See Softbank's
press release (Japanese) for more details on the phone.
