this is a great product. wonderfully designed. I have often thought that mobile phones should be used when your are er.. mobile. when u are sitting at ur desk for hours together or at ur home, its better to have a docking station like this with all the connections. I even tried to do this with my computer.

kudos for this concept. it will become a reality one day. u see

The title “Beefing Up Your Old Mobile Phone” is not named by me.
And in fact that Screen2 is not designed for old moblile phone but a smart one.
It can help us operate the smart mobilephone as easy as PC.We can use the PC to operate the phone by Screen2.
Using the keyboard of the PC instead of the phone,and the screen of Screen2 instead of the phone too.

Lu Le, go back to the drawing board for this.

When you say “older cellular phones,” I think outdated and largely worthless units like the LG that I have – which is sold by the dozens at Walmart as a prepaid phone and is, in my case, beginning to suffer hardware failure.

Factors you have to account for are the following:

First note that a mobile phone is only as good as its operating system. If the phone has an obsolete programming, your phone is obsolete no matter what you connect it to. If you can somehow compensate for this with the Screen2, that’s fine, but I don’t see how that would be plausible.

Second is that plugs are not universal unless you use a USB jack in which case the location varies from phone to phone.

As for third, it’s stationary. This would not be an upgrade for a phone, it would merely be a temporary interface. People would still be compelled to buy the latest and greatest MOBILE phone.

Rework it and tweak it. I like it, but I doubt it will work as-is.

Not to mention the plug differences, the fact that most cells from that point in time would probably need severe changes to their operating system, and the very simple obviousness that…THIS THING IS STATIONARY.
