The N95 is a good selling point for this, considering you can probably take about 20 pictures before the battery runs out, i doubt it would get through one night of a festival let alone 3!

Thenceforth, I bopped till day-break

I lament thee!

A poor copy of Duffman, oh yeah!

Why not use body heat?

This thing is bulky and Brits don't like wearing geeky stuff - unlike their buddies across the pond where they simultaneously wear around their (somehow larger) waists Blackberries, dedicated 'cell' phones, pagers? and the always useful Leatherman. So, based on idea I had in the 1990s entitled 'Power Pants' - Orange should consider squeezing juice from the parts of your typical Bopping Brit where there is always guaranteed to be some surplus heat: The crotch! Introducing: Thong Power! A thin cable would then run up form the belt area into the phone, iPod etc. Related puns: Nookia / Bony Erection / Samhung / Tottyrola (Motabona?) / LP / oh, alright, I'll sink even lower: Semens...

Hmm, sounds exciting! What sort of, ahem, "discharge" would be released if I was wearing my Power Pants for a long while without powering anything?

I'm thinking a built-in vibra-unit would be a step in the right direction.

The future's bright. The future's Orgasmic.

Paris, because she would happily demo Paris' Power Pants during her workout.

IT Angle

I spent ages trying to figure out how to say this diplomatically, but couldn't. She's cute, (like the hair), but I want a raver / hippy type chick if I'm to take this product seriously. You lots can keep the eee girl(s), let's have some raver chicks. And a couple of raver blokes to keep the ladies happy...

IT angle cos there isn't one in this case!

It could put this on one arm and charge it while I use my hand on the other arm to send all those kinky texts that'll soon be illegal.
