This is insane! Now they have come out with a smart shoephone! One of United States top telecom service providers- T Mobile have launched their new product, Sidekick, a smart shoephone (It makes me laugh every time I type that).

Once you watch their YouTube video, you will know how crazy it can be. This product doubles up as a shoe and a smartphone-a very outrageous idea! I was shocked to see this video come up in the recommended section of my YouTube account and was pretty sure that this is some hoax that's going viral. But to my surprise, this is an actual product! [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQQuOICUylQ[/embedyt] Companies are going an extra mile to topple competition and be the boss in the industry. T-Mobile has gone beyond that by introducing such a product. The Sidekick, (i'm tired laughing, so no-more smart shoephone) has a variety of features such as retractable laces/earphones, hazard detection, speakers, pairing to other Sidekicks by a shoe tap and God knows what more! You receive calls by removing the shoe and placing it on your ears; how silly is that! My parents would think I've gone crazy if they see me do that. How can an individual walk with one shoe on and use maps on the other!? This invention has got me going bonkers. Go ahead and watch the video to see how technology is touching new highs.........or is it lows in this case? Hope its something new that you got to know and let me know what do you think of the Sidekick and whether it will sell in India. P.S: I use a T Mobile subscription in the US and feel its time to switch :-P
