Sure, it looks like a gigantic, touchscreen HTC phone -- but we'd be hard-pressed to say this has any use outside of demo purposes and party time hijinks. Our guess is that this is a hilarious prank meant to thrill the interblogs, but it is possible that HTC has decided to move away from the tried-and-true handheld market to a more robust, manly line of products. Like a participant in a cat-fight, we won't &quot;go there&quot; on the specs, suffice to say, they make it sound really, really real. Check the video after the break to see the &quot;phone&quot; doing its thing, Ten Commandments-style.&quot;<br /></em></p><p><em><img alt="" border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/500/spt/auto/1202427939.usr6.jpg" /></em></p><p>Just when we thought HTC had made every conceivable form factor.</p>

It may well have been a "joke" but I still think it would be a pretty cool device to have ... lol
