A recently uncovered Sony Ericsson patent details a mobile phone with a detachable screen. The utility of such a function is not openly discussed in the document, but we cannot help thinking it would have little benefit over other equivalent designs. The image depicts a clamshell phone, which means if this were a touchscreen, users could discriminate between which data entry method, but doesn’t the HTC Dual Touch solve this problem a little more succinctly? It is an interesting idea for sure, but we really cannot see a place for the LEGO-esque mobile. Any ideas? [Unwired View]

Comment,
Did it pass anyones mind that there might not be a use for this product LEGO-esque phone yet/heard of..,
Let me think they might not have thought of one at all..
We are talking about a large corp that puts to work groups of nerds to find the best way’s to get ideas out of the public.. “they are out to get your IP”.
e.g.http://www.downloadsquad.com/2005/11/01/is-sony-hacking-your-pc/
Now the article above was published in late 2005.., around the same time that sony ericsson had nice square phones like the one in question.
Do you see where this is going ?
with the hacks sony was doing on the general publics computers all they would have to do is put the bait out there sit back wait for a key tag ‘like this page’ to become active on someones pc download/upload the internet histroy/messenger history from located computer and there you have it great ideas for sony to make millions on while crushing the public and generally just being a corp..
If you ask me what this phone/paitent was for I would say it was produced as a method of company devlopement by sony.
Actuall use..,
Sf the phone has a high res camera could use to check if you WIPED PROPERLY.
See around corners.
*** Every phone comes with a bonus clip and baseball cap with screen holder so that everyone can clip their phone on the back of their shirt/bra with the screen attached to the brim of the cap.., never again miss the effects of that really great wind you just passed…,
AND THE BIG ONE
Digital media :- mp4′s etc watch on little screen while phone is in pocket,
