Can you imagine having something that big hanging off your belt? At least put a retractable cord on it. :lol:

I think I would like the Mayfair for home use and Holborn Exchange for car use.

One of the things you cannot do with the current candybar or clamshell phones is, rest the phone on your shoulder and lock it between your head and shoulder (I mean old fashioned tilt your head and hold phone). Holborn would allow me to do that in car :D

The only problem, I may distract the other car drivers off the road :lol:
