whats that smell?

[pontifex]

oh, its my Smell-O-Phone!

I don't have a link because i heard about it on the radio this morning. Some company in Japan (of course, who else?) is making a cell phone that can "record" smells and "play" them back.

it was in the news portion of the news radio show...i'll see if i can dig up a link to it somewhere.

I can't find a link for the exact phone they were talking about, i didn't look too hard either (hey, its friday and still early).
they also reported a breathalyzer type cell phone the other day too. you blow into it and it gives your bac level.

i don't think you are grasping the concept. it seems it just releases perfume.

Smell-o-vision was something previously reserved for cartoons and other gags. Well, Samsung has done the unthinkable and is actually developing a smell-o-phone. This phone will release ?smell tones? upon incoming calls. According to the patent documentation the type and amount of perfume can be controlled. Thanks, Samsung. Now cell phones can annoy two of our senses instead of just one.

maybe the news caster misunderstood. i'm just relaying what they said. they said it would analyze all the parts of a smell and reproduce it, not just spurt out some perfume.
