The 01 Phone Coming in 27 Days! Wait, What is The 01 Phone?
Here it is folks, the handset of your dreams! A sexy touchscreen device with a slide-out laser projector keyboard, 32 GB of internal storage, 3G and a 5 megapixel camera are among the specs. Amazing right? T3 got the scoop on this little puppy this past Friday and it looks like a hell of a contender. But wait. There is no reference on the 01 website in terms of who the manufacturer might be and no specs are given at all. In fact, all there is on the site is a countdown timer. So umm, how did T3 get the specs on this bad boy? Oh yeah, that’s right… It’s fake. A quick whois shows that the 01 Phone website was registered by the British company Future Publishing. Yeah they also happen to run T3, the site that got the scoop on this amazingly fake handset. So there are one of two possibilities as far as we can tell: Either this tiny gadget blog is pulling a Techcrunch and getting into the hardware manufacturing business, or this is a pretty unethical attempt to boost traffic. As such we’re not even going to link them. That’s not to say that you shouldn’t check them out of course. In fact, we have word that next week they may run a scoop on an upcoming $200 UMPC with 10GB of RAM, a 2 TB hard drive and an integrated dish washer. Hot!
Writing about them AT ALL is giving them too much exposure. Whats the point in covering this? Its a waste of everyone’s time and you’re giving them exactly what they want.
Do everyone a favor and delete this post.
Not much to do on a Sunday afternoon.
Now how long will it take before HTC actually copies the style, slaps WinMob on it and gets it too market lol!!
Yeah, maybe you should cover the bigfoot they found in georgia too.
Ha I bought a copy of T3 once in like 2001 just because they had a picture of a Motorola Accompli 009 on the cover. Thank god for blogs.
OMG is this coming to Sprint? I want one!
I agree with MobileRoar. Waste of time. Thx for wasting my time.
Well as a Verizon customer, there’s no danger of them getting it anyway…It would have been far to cool a phone. I also hope Sprint gets it…LOL!
Nice looking devices if they could pull something like that off. Otherwise, they are just another bunch of fakers trying to drum up advertising traffic.
We should reserve the right to track them down and slap them around a little bit with a sock full of boiled new potatoes. The little red ones. *slap* hahahaha…. Now that’s something that would end up on youtube!
Gee, now I have the urge to do that to someone just for the sole purpose of putting it on youtube. Man, if these guys lived near philly I would be very, very afraid if I were them.
lol, how would you type while on the go.. Like on a bus, walking, or anywhere else there is no flat surface?
Madmike said it all

I’ll stick with my aibo that walks my REAL Dog, feeds my family members, rents DVD’s, burns and makes automatic backups of my computer.
Did I also mention he can transform into 1 of 6 preprogrammed victoria’s secret models? I mean, of course, when people all me they show up as holograms but it’s OK. I often like people hearing and seeing my conversations.
It’s what it is!!
it is attention seeking at its worst – they are probably desperate for more traffic
there are no blurry pics, no details, no rumours or anything
