Everyday there is a new mobile phone model is being released in to the market. Some are trendy, some are smart and well designed and loaded with hundreds of features.
Did you ever wanted to have a phone that’s just a phone. Here comes the lightes…

that’s exactly what you’re supposed to do since that virtual camera will of course be a modu-compliant one. The idea isn’t of course to make you switch constantly between the modu and the camera or any other device but to allow you to spend an afternoon shooting quality pictures, without losing the cell phone functionality. then go home, eject the modu, stick it into the modu compliant laptop, digital photoframe or whatever and store the camera. of course there’s the added charm of the potential modu-enabled fridge later on when you’re snacking, too

Basically the concept of the modu and its host of compliant jacquets isn’t any different from the forced entry of HD flat LCD TV’s into near eveyone’s homes. The LCD works just like the modu : admittedly it doesn’t need to be ejected, but it does invariably produce the mandatory surround system, hd dvd player (apparently already obsolete thanks to blue ray!), cd player not to mention the cables.

Security Systems role over
Gas Meters
Electric Meters
water meters
Personal Car diagnostic systems (hopefully coming soon)
Gas Pumps
Car tracking systems
laptops
Car stereos with a true address book for reference with automatic location finder
over seas tracking of Crates
just some ideas. I hope this is helpful

Good luck, modu!

Very similar to Modu…. But open source…

The way to solve the problem of WAN access is with PAN. Everyone already has a phone with a data account. Just add PAN (BT, wireless USB, whatever) to the other device and make it seemlessly easy to connect the two. Solve the problem of pairing devices – why can’t I just touch the two things together to make them talk to each other?

I think the next step of human evolution will be that in order to survive, people will need to have very good eyes (to be able to look at tiny iPhone or Modu Screens) and very small & quick fingers (to be able to type on tiny keyboards like Blackberry…).

There will be no fat guy with glasses left in 2050 !!

Modularity is silly because you have to pay for all the connectors, plastic around each piece, protection in case someone makes a bad module, marketing and inventory cost, etc. It makes sense when you add highly optional features to an expensive thing, but for mainstream features it’s much cheaper to integrate.

If you want to modularize the mobile phone, how about a dock for iPhone that connects it to a full-size monitor, mouse, and keyboard? It’s your computer when docked, and your phone when undocked. You’ve always got all the features with you, but the usability expands when docked. Just like how an iPod comes with headphones but you can connect it to the stereo. Where is the iPhone dock for car dashboard?!?

Still, it looks nice.

That said, I’m all for anything that forwards the concept of modular cellular devices, the potential is enormous.

Let me see..what I could build around this. May be i will use gumstix ( http://www.gumstix.com) alongwith this.
