Your Cell Phone Smells Good

If you think that there is not much possible technology advances left in the field of cell phones, than think again. Hyundai has launched a cell phone, MP 280 which is a perfume phone. You can add your favourite perfumes to your cell phone too. The scent of the perfume is released when you open this clamshell to make or recieve phone calls. And its not a one time scent. The phone comes along with a syringe which you can fill with your favorite perfume. The butterfly at the centre of the device has to be injected with the perfume into the handset. About 2 drops of the concentrate are enough to last about 8 hours. The will be launched in China and it costs 9900 Yuan which costs approximately 55999 INR. I must say its a very costly phone.
