A personal mobile communication device which lets you
be free and fun. It is light, simple and carefree. You can change its form
according to your needs during the day. You dont have to carry it in your
pocket or on your wrist. You can carry it anywhere, in anyform. You can roll
it, bend it, put on your clothes like a clip. It also makes some form changes
that makes it more ergonomical: i.e. when you want to talk on the phone, the
body form turns into the form of the good old telephone. You can personalize
these forms and record them. So it fits you the best in the way that you have
chosen. Also e-motions let you send forms to other 888 users: i.e. you can
send a heart shape to your girlfriend or a dancing figure to your friends to
call them to the party tonight. This way you can talk without
words.
According to the comments by the Nokia Jury:
This refreshing new idea has been perfectly
executed. The phone gives information on whats happening (e.g. an
incoming phone call) by changing shape. The user interface works
entirely without keyboard and seems very easy to use. A simple yet
stylish and futuristic design: the Nokia 888 is only 0.5cm thick!
Good graphical execution. Excellent as a
whole.
The Nokia 888 concept transcends conventional design and allows you to morph into any design you wish, roll it, bend it, clip it, whatever.
I think specs are peripheral to the topic here. We have all seen great innovation with Nokia's phone designs especially with the Nokia 7280 . Yanko Design features the Nokia 888 which is a lightweight communication device with a totally flexible form factor. What does that mean? you can roll it, you can make it a wrist band, you can straighten it, however you want it. The site mentions use of liquid battery and flexible touch screens for the concept. Lets wait and see
