Sausage stylus comes to the US

It was a little less than a month ago when news broke of a South Korean company called CJ Corporation noticing a sharp increase in sales of their frozen sausages. CJ did some digging around and it turned out the good people of South Korea were using their sausages as iPhone styluses. Someone who was sick of taking their gloves off in the cold Korean winter to use their iPhone found out that the sausages were electrostatically compatible with the iPhone's touch screen, and nearly as effective as using a human finger.

South Korea is one of the most technologically advanced countries on the planet. Anything they're doing, we want. And now we can have it. CaseCrown, a company that sells iPhone cases, has acquired a large shipment of the Korean sausages. They are on sale for a limited time for only 99 cents (down from $3.99). So if you don't mind carrying a mixture of dubious quality meat around in your pocket and live in a cold area, the iPhone Sausage Stylus may be just right for you! The sausage stylus is compatible with all iPhone and iPod touch models.

It’s always amazed me, that people, specifically journalist, can actually climax over ridiculous stuff like this meat stylus, yet when hearing of a literal BILLION dollar stylus, such as the SUPER-SOFT-TOUCH stylus seen at http://clg3.com/7.html - they don’t even contact the individual. Who, in their right mind, would want to carry an eventual smelly meat stylus around with them, in which, on top of it all, is only productive at the North Pole, not to mention, in no way works as effortlessly, or well as the SOFT-TOUCH stylus seen on that link?? Everyone? Get a grip.

I've used the end (well where its chopped off at harvest) of a cucumber a couple of times -works just fine! Feels better to walk around with sometihing in your pocket thats not made of meat.

I'll take preorders now!

"Here Kitty, Kitty...I need to use my iPhone." Unfortunately, my cat (named Shakespeare, Shaky for short) would soon become uncooperative.

I'll still prefer my pogo sketch stylus, thanks. Same functionality and doesn't leave greasemarks. Why do the koreans want to reinvent the wheel..

Funny and gross. Nothing like carrying around uncooked meat. I don't think I want my iPhone or clothes to smell like rotten meat.

the sausage is ready to eat, so it's cooked.

Will we have to use a polish sausage with the ipad? Would a "lil' smokie" work as a portable mini pocket stylus. I can see it now, Jobs said no stylus's... this is not a stylus, this is the iMeat and iMeat Nano.

Anybody else wondering what makes the Korean sausages' meat so special that it's the only one that works? Soylent Green anyone?

+1 for the Soylent Green reference.

The question is, how long will it last before going rancid?

as I have replied above to another asking about taste, this thing actually DON'T require refrigeration.

so the shelf life is long enough.
