New LG Handset To Feel Fleshy

Thumbnail image for lg_skinphone_2.jpg

The new LG SH240 handset looks like any slider out there. To set it apart from the rest, it has a feature that will either entice you or make you freak out. Regardless of which reaction you'll make, the SH240 is going to touch you.

The SH240 is LG's latest slider handset. The phone's party trick is that the keypad is crafted from silicone to make it feel as though the user is tapping out a text message on someone's skin.

I'm not sure just how comfortable it's going feel like when you press the buttons, but it all sounds like something from a science fiction movie involving cyborgs. Other than the fleshy contact, the phone offers a 2 megapixel camera and Bluetooth. It's only available in Korea for now, retailing at roughly $400 USD.
