Japanese telco giant, NTT DoCoMo is releasing a scented mobile phone in the shape of the SO703i from Sony Ericsson.
Why? I don’t know but apparently the phone takes scented sheets that smell when you open the phone. Something to do with relaxing odours and there’s 11 to choose from. NTT has already tested smells in the cinema so that the fragrance released matches what's on the screen. A load of crap, I know.
The company has named its offering the D8000iDS, which boasts a double-screen: a normal TFT on one half and a touch-screen on the other. Do not expect to ever see this over here where phone makers think car exhaust fumes, rotting rubbish and under-arm sweat are all the odours we deserve.-Martin Lynch
