Keitai Vyuun! - but is it really the best invention ever? I say "no".

Nice to see an upgrade to the grade school eraser cars. Which was a rubber eraser with four staples inserted like a sled for motion.

Wow, these cars will have running lights and a sound system...

Now it's even easier for your mobile phone to fly off the desk and break into pieces on the floor. It's bad enough that they have a seemingly magnetic attraction to countertop edges; do we really need to give them a mechanical assist?

Exactly, mystyk. What I could really use is a laptop which overstates the metaphor of being a toy.

I would prefer an attachment that turned my cellphone into a bouncy red rubber ball. I wouldn't have to worry about it hitting the floor, either.

Why yes. Yes it IS the best invention ever. Arguments to the contrary are fruitless, and will therfore be ignored.

It´s not the best invention ever, but it´s pretty damn cool.

/It´s not like cell phones aren´t disposable items.

And do WHAT with it???

Turn the ringers and vibrate to max,
set each phone to calling the other in an endless loop,
set on fire
and race!!!

Kinda like the Fast and the Furious,
just less so and with more fire.

now someone needs to market a tape-on penny slot1
