Kinetic phone is charged with motion and wishes

kinetic_phone.jpgBoy, do I ever love concept designs like this. Designers just love to create these fantastical designs with absolutely no basis in reality. I mean, hey, that's what engineers are for, right? Figuring out how to make designs work? If so, some poor engineer really has his work cut out for him.

The Kinetic phone only has basic cell functions, no multimedia stuff that might suck up unnecessary juice. Why? Because all you have to do to charge it is "give it a few upside down turns to get the kinetic rotors going again." That's it. You never have to plug it in. Boy, you've got to wonder why no phones work like this if it's possible to do, right?
