Gizmodo Reflects on the iPhone's Lack of Video Conferencing

Over at Gizmodo, Jesus Diaz has taken the white hot bile and scorn he feels at the iPhone 3G’s lack of forward facing video camera and funneled it, still boiling and frothing, into a nerdgasm of creativity.

Over at Gizmodo, Jesus Diaz has taken the white hot bile and scorn he feels at the iPhone 3G's lack of forward facing video camera and funneled it, still boiling and frothing, into a nerdgasm of creativity. Behold, the Apple Videoconferencing Kit.

His pitch perfect parody can be seen above, in a "leaked" clip from the user manual. From the press release:

Using a unique silicon-based mirror material and natural bamboo wood for its handle and base, the Apple Videoconferencing Kit measures an unprecedented 0.5 inches at its thinnest point. Its low weight and unique shape—developed following strict Human Interface tests and anatomical studies—will allow the user to easily hold it in front of the iPhone 3G camera, allowing face-to-face video communication with users all around the world.

Even the price is right: an Apple standard $29. Might we suggest that Apple also introduce a special seven year Applecare package, just in case you drop it.
