Homebrew Wooden Cellphone

MIT PhD candidate David Mellis has recently achieved fame for his custom designed and built cellphone. $150 worth of cobbled-together parts got him a GSM phone with an 1.8″ color , 160×128 pixel, TFT screen. He used a clever way of forming the pressable buttons in the plywood cover. Digi-Key must be happy with the unintended product placement opportunity in this picture of David and his companion trying out his wooden phone.

About RF Cafe Copyright: 1996 - 2024 Webmaster: Kirt Blattenberger, BSEE - KB3UON RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
