The Ultimate Phone
Look at the phones on the market today. They [almost] all suck. Even the best ones aren't perfect. The Moto RAZR was, and still is a sexy phone, but the interface is horrific. The Sony Ericsson K800i is also a good looking phone, and has great features to match, but it still doesn't stand out much more than anything else.
The world is long overdue "THE phone", and something tells us it might come from Apple. We have had a good long think about what THE phone might look like, and here's what we came up with.
Well, there you go. In all its touch screen scroll wheel goodness. If Apple do make a phone, and they want it to be the best, why not incorporate the best iPod in the world...
Movies, Photos, Internet, all in H.264 glory on that wonderful full face display.
Not to forget PhotoBooth Express, the on-the-go camera effects application to express yourself.
Better not go on for too long otherwise we'll end up sounding like Steve Jobs at a keynote...
We can dream.

If you want to see what looks like something Apple would design...This is it.

I assume that circle is a touchpad.
The screen would break really easily then, no?
Apple wouldn't make such a high use item with such a shithouse screen design.

Oh yes they could. Look through-out mac history. They usually end up breaking in the same ways, due to design flaws.

Simple is Apple's style, this seems a likely Apple design.

You are the closest. It's a 16:9 touch screen over the face ofd the device, iSight on top. There is a slide out qwerty keyboard on the side and the device is thicker. For a detailed take on the device see:
The Apple Concept Device

Remember this is a phone, not another iPod.

I like it. The full-face screen lends to lots of possibilities for applications. The bezel is of perfect thickness, and the camera is well-placed. I guess my only concern is the lack of obvious ear and mouth pieces.
Nice work.
