Fake Friday: iPhone Phorgery
Today's lame iPhone Phorgery is brought to you by youtube.com, vendor of many things mythical, unsightly or worse. In today's video, feast your eyes upon a novel-looking phone extension that appears to exist in only two dimensions, much as Zod (kneel before him!) was trapped in that whole Superman II thing. Hate the sounds. Hate the font. After factoring in imagination points, today's TUAW forgery score is 3.5 out of 10, with a severe 1.5 from the East German judge.

What a waste of time from the guy who made it.
I don't think he expected anyone to believe it's real... :D

This video is from Finland... Ãiti=Mother
This is a concept, not a fake. A fake would have to be trying to pass itself off as the real thing, which this clearly isn't.
Love it.
I agree, why all the hate'n? what's wrong with you people!

I think it is absolutely horrid. You can see the plastic where the screen is and the GUI looks photoshopped together. If your making a mock up, at least make it look somewhat presentable. Not like some 5 year old made it (Sorry for insulting 5 year olds across the world by comparing them to this garbage)

I was thinking more Star Trek than Star Wars, but a clever idea nonetheless!
