If you're a mobile musician wishing that your cell phone could play some soulful tunes, then you need to check out the Band in Your Pocket concept phone. The Band in Your Pocket concept phone is a conceptual cell phone that comes with attachments for five different instruments.
Designer Marianne Bailey designed the Band in Your Pocket phone to convert your voice into musical stylings. A harmonica and what looks to be a flute are just two of the five instruments available for use with the Band in Your Pocket.
A musical mobile like this would be a great way to set the mood for a date or spice up a boring wait in line. Finally, hope has been given to those without discernible musical talent--myself included.
