Build your own mobile phone!

Just like you can build your own pc with Dell:
http://www.zzzphone.com
Neat idea to order whatever features you want.

Wouldnt mind getting one but would fear for lack of backup and support. And as far as I can tell it only has a 30 day guarantee!!

Site is highly suspect to be honest!

As a web programmer, spelling mistakes never fill me with confidence so pardon me if I don't want to "Buy Anonther"!

It's like Engadget / Boards ha!

Looks very fake to me to be honest... the whole "Earn up to $75 for every zzzPhone sold through your site" reminds me of the Free iPod scamming days.

EDIT: Haha and I just noticed at the bottom...

LOL - as a web developer the 46 errors the site throws in Firefox and the caveat that:

(Notice to Firefox users: BETA site does not support .js library- please use IE)

were the first things I noticed about the site. It is an interesting idea even if the execution is somewhat less than professional.

(BTW I have no affiliation with this site despite my profession and my signature - little did I realise my signature would be so prophetic when I wrote it back in September)

I read that the zzzphone was a fake.
Dunno if it's the same thing as what you're talking about though.
