The Kuma Phone -- or "Bear Phone" -- by Wilcom is a stuffed bear that holds a SIM card and is an actual working phone. Users can even program four numbers into speed dial, which can each be dialed by pressing one of the bear's four paws. It also vibrates and makes custom noises for incoming calls, which can be answered and ended by pressing the animal's tail.
Call me crazy, but I thought we were tending toward sleek and shiny phones...The item was recently shown at the Good Design Expo in Tokyo. Maybe it can help you get your bearings - haaa, get it? bear - rings. I love being corny.
So, How much for this fuzzy phone, you ask? Oh, only $500. What a rip - they could have at least picked a cuter bear instead of some raggedy-ass looking furball.
