    FYI, from here - https://justine-haupt.com/rotarycellphone/

    It's clever, but feels like an example of: Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.

    I can't find the pic, but I saw the same joke, except it was a standard hand piece wired into a regular cell phone giving the speaker and mic functions.

    This has me wondering how these folks who walk around texting and making selfies of them selves would react to this device
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    Anyone remembering the Apple "McWheel" launch from a few years back?

    I can proudly say that I do not believe I have ever owned anything made by the Apple corporation, nor have I now or anytime in the foreseeable future think that I will ever have any compulsion to want to own anything made by apple.
    I probably would never have owned anything associated with Microsoft, had Fortran and IBM managed to truly break into the personal computing market
