MoPods Cell Phone Alert Gadget

mo-pod.gifThe MoPod just goes to show you that they will make anything & try to sell it.  I know it’s rather cute, but completely ridiculous.

MoPods are adorable cell phone accessories.  Their function, besides looking cute & cuddly, is to spin & flash when your cell receive calls or incoming text, as indicated by the pic.

Cost for this teenage frivolity, $9.

    Bought one for my girlfriend. She is hearing impaired and can talk on the phone but has a hard time hearing it ringing. Ridiculous now?

    No, Mike. That was actually a good use of this little guy. Hope she loves it & thanks for the comment.

    Interesting comments you made about MoPods. Mostly true. But why “ridiculous”? Because they’re not functional? Well, as the comment from Mike about Allison said, and you acknowledged, they did provide a function for her. How about my 84-years young Mom putting hers on her table at a restaurant because she can’t hear her cell phone in a crowd? How about a hunter on a deer-stand getting alerted silently to a walkie-talkie call from his buddy? Or a student in a class? Or even a business person who’s phone ringer is turned off? Anyone who’s in a noisy place, or wearing headphones, and can’t hear their cell phone?

    But even if they’re frivolous, they’re really fun. AND, they draw attention from others.

    And now there are new Characters, and more on the way with Christmas Characters. Here’s another use: light up your Christmas tree with them.

    Thanks for your interest.
