Stun Fone iPhone accessory: YouTube spoof or real product?

Uh, discharging 10kV near a phone containing delicate electronics? Bad idea, and definitely voids your warranty.

However, the ad is FAKE: you click on the link to purchase (check-out), and it takes you to an ad agency (Stun Creative, the agency that presumably created the wanna-be viral marketing campaign).

Spam, pure and simple. You guys was hood-winked.... Check your facts before passing along this crap.

No way, my boyfriend and I just came up with a similar product like that a few weeks ago...I even blogged about it!!

It's not easy to push both buttons at the same time on my 3GS. And when you must absolutely get it right the first time without fiddling with the phone or holding it a certain way, it's useless.

I say fake for the simple reason that the iPhone 3G and 3GS use a
rocker switch for the volume... you can't press both volume buttons at
the same time.

Definitely fake, although it does look real. When he shocks his buddy, you can clearly see that he doesn't actually touch him. Not to mention that tazing somebody in public unprovoked is considered assault (the girlfriend incident at the end).

FWIW, Apple wouldn't approve an app that modifies the functionality of the hardware buttons.

This thing looks really cool. Good thing Christmas is soon!

This will make you LOL.
