Calling With Style

August 5, 2010skype, smartphone, Toys, voipbluetooth, design, googletalk, skype, telephone, voipAndrew

This week’s unofficial style and design award goes to Native Union and their beautiful Moshi Moshi range of handsets for mobile phones, USB VoIP and Bluetooth.

There’s four in the range, the first three created by designer David Turpin and the last by Michael Young. They’re a stylish mix of retro and modern and I think they’re reasonably priced for a well-designed item. I’m tempted to get the Bluetooth handset (MM03) myself.

Two of them have 3.5mm jacks and two are Bluetooth. A range of adaptors are also available from the web site, including one for converting to USB for Skype, GoogleTalk and so on.

Here are a few pictures to whet your appetite but the website has full photo galleries.

And if you are wondering what “Moshi Moshi” is, it’s what Japanese people say when they answer the phone. You can read about the myth behind this phrase over on WikiAnswers.

When it rains it pours someone has opened up the flood gate and I have been inundated with request for proposals from companies wanting to do advertising deals. So I have been burning the midnight oil and will likely pull some 18 hour days over the weekend to get everything pushed out. One more show here in Texas before I head back to Honolulu.
