Let your fingers do the talking with this winning entry to 2007's list of iF Design Awards winners. Up under the Consumer Electronics/Telecommunications category is contender Sunman Kwon of Korea's Hong-ik University with the Finger Touching Wearable Mobile Phone concept. For the record, there've been a number of attempts by others to utilize the hand as an interface, from NTT DoCoMo's FingerWhisper handset to the Ring Phone.
This one joins the league of extraordinary "hand" phones, with the idea of a wearable mobile glove that slips onto your hand, then like a Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboard, projects a 3 x 4 mobile keypad onto your fingers. Each joint makes up a button. Of course, this totally negates any possibility of handsfree yakking or picking your nose with your phone hand.
