Keep the gamepad only as a slide out external piece. Use an internal zoom option for the internal camera so you don't have a camera physically sliding out, but would definitely have to upgrade to a higher pixel camera. I wouldn't worry about the thickness of the phone that much. I know thin is in but a lot of people still enjoy a thick heftiness to a phone with the rounded edges. It just feels better in the hand. Better grip and won't feel like it's going to slip right out of your hand. Also on the back your could make just the center a flat piece so that when its lying on the table it sits flat and stable. Just some ideas, but it looks like a great concept.also shouldn't be hard upgrading the glass and incorporating a retina/high def screen. Sorry that's all. Keep up the great work, I have a few ideas for concepts myself though sadly I don't have the know how or resources to make them come to be just yet. If there are those of you that do and are willing to help I would love a group to work with.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05657839205031895905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10243151.post-35220528042073670002010-12-13T09:49:15.679+10:002010-12-13T09:49:15.679+10:00Maybe the keyboard could have back lit E-Ink keys,...Maybe the keyboard could have back lit E-Ink keys, so the configuration and language could be changed whenever.

Nice design, fluid and visually appealin...Hey Mat,<br /><br />Nice design, fluid and visually appealing.<br /><br />Though I want one thing more from your designs: realism.<br /><br />iPhone EITE: The dual-slide.<br />Your mechanism looks impossible to build given the space. The total slide area you can extract is 29mm (i calculated based on n95). So it would cover for the keyboard or both but one would be left out.<br /><br />PSP: The trackpad keyboard.<br />Awesome idea, but it would be too impractable. Firstly, the "buttons" at the sides wouldn't be usable/practical. Secondly, the functionality would be quite low cause trackpads have a low accuracy per mm2. A resistive touchscreen may just pull it off (accuracy wise). And the res-touch can provide the mouse alternative. But it will become pointless. Why? It would lose the multi-touch advantage, tactile responsiveness of a keyboard, and the touchpad responsiveness of mouse. So its a trade-off between tactile and mousability.<br /><br />I want to send you my designs, once ive finished the OS looks.<br />It is not a design per-se, but blueprints to build an Omnia. I have scaled everything to be do-able. Its not visually enhanced, but have images of each angle for anyone to grasp. Will be looking forward to sending you these to get your feedback.<br /><br />In the meantime, keep up the hard work kiwi!Kangalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666053989919025358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10243151.post-84976571515098222842009-12-27T09:28:33.096+10:002009-12-27T09:28:33.096+10:00It doesnt seem like it would be possible to have t...It doesnt seem like it would be possible to have the keyboard: <br /><br />1) Slide in 2 directions<br />2)Keep in place when you need it to<br />3) Have enough room for the keyboard and game controler.Zenshaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15588549166479603463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10243151.post-54279387393892996092009-10-16T07:13:51.205+10:002009-10-16T07:13:51.205+10:00I'll admit I had my doubts about your first &q...I'll admit I had my doubts about your first "Iphone Elite", but this is amazing. If apple ever came out with this product I would drop the last 1 and 1/2 years of my Verizon contract, throw out my LG voyager (bleh) and go buy this without a second thought. The only thing I would wonder about is could you add external (higher quality) speakers to the slide out keyboard? They would of course not be used if the keyboard was slided? slid? in. Though I'm only a 9th grader and don't really know a lot about this kinda stuff. IMO the current speakers on the iphone suck.Samuelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15314597381845228261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10243151.post-20234176838533609182009-09-08T05:02:58.862+10:002009-09-08T05:02:58.862+10:00well I really really liked the ELITE it's awes...well I really really liked the ELITE it's awesome!!

I was just wondering what the spec are for the device (if you made any) such as screen size, actual phone size, etc or is it all the same hardware (except for what is on the picture) but with a larger screen?
