What’s Not: Concept, concept, concept! And I fancy the desk version more than the soft version.

You want a phone that does all your business, but you’re sick of those complicated butt-dialers by the name of Blackberry, and you’re not up on fruit. So you’ve got to look around. Here’s what’s up.

The G0 runs on Android and Google Chrome. It’s got a flexible oLED touch panel. A slide body, revealing the four buttons and the camera lens. High LED on back to tell status of the phone (liking this- never really liked sounds coming out of my pocket all the time):

Red Flashing – battery almost exhausted
Green – 100% cell
White Flashing – incoming call
Purple Flashing – something is wrong because the phone isn’t supposed to have purple OR Prince is calling.

Take note that this design was caught up in some email twists and turns and arrived to us a little late, woops! So it’s also on gizmodo and DVice – but we’re all pals, right? We can have some conference calls on our G0 phones, right?

A little more info on the Maglev concept:

The use of the physical properties of magnetic fields generated by superconducting magnets to cause an object (as a vehicle) to float above a solid surface.

- Merriam Webster Dictionary

This method has the potential to be faster, quieter and smoother than wheeled mass transit systems. The technology has the potential to exceed 4,000 mph (6,400 km/h) if deployed in an evacuated tunnel.

- Wikipedia

The above speed(s) are, of course, assuming you’re rocking a bullet train on the magnetic-levitation tracks. With a car using maglev wheels, the benefit is much, much less. But a benefit nonetheless. Rock them wheels!

Party here. Right on this lovely device. Although I’ll never be a fan of objects that require more and more batteries, more and more things to plug in, I’d say this is certainly a beautiful solution. Or at least beautiful. What say you alcohol aficionados? How well do you think it’ll play out if it’s produced? Is it “green?”

Cheers!

10) LMacTouch by Mayyen Chan

The LMacTouch gloats on a touch screen that is adjustable and nifty green features. It is ergonomically designed to be flexible for comfort of the user. The green factor comes in via the option to use solar energy as a power source. Something we never find in Apple designs.

9) iRing by Victor Soto

The iRing syncs with the iPod or iPhone via Bluetooth giving you total control over your Apple media devices. It features a bright OLED status display with touch-sensitive function strip, and a rechargeable battery life of up to 2 days. Despite these neat features, I don’t expect it to replace your wedding rings!

8 ) iLight by Miyoshimasato

If gadgets aren’t symbolic enough, let’s add some peripherals to the game! Let’s add a torch, yup the one that lights up and does away with the darkness! OMG! An Apple Torch…Seriously? How many of you will fall for that! However, its “recharges via USB” is so typically Apple!

7) Sony Apple Remote by Jason Roebuck

Mother of oxymoron! It’s a SONY but in a sinful Apple iteration! Remote control be damned and so with the features, I don’t see either of the companies coming up with this obvious design!

6) iView by Nuno Teixeira

Do we see this coming alive even though we lust for it? 100% NO!
Too bad that we won’t get to enjoy the giant curved screen upfront or the mini screen at the back; two webcams (front and back), all a waste! Many things maketh a Mac, we wish this was one of them!

5) iShow by Moti Barzilay

iShow is a portable projector designed for Apple’s line of iPods, iPhones, and MacBooks. The clam inspired body turns on when you pull the two discs apart to expose a pico projector and ports. As a peripheral something like this will do well, but only if Apple would listen to us.

4) iSpine by Tommaso Gecchelin

You guys really appreciated this design and kudos to Tommaso for conceptualizing it. This concept has all the zing in it to make it the perfect-o lappie. When such ideas are showcased, one feels that there is so much more to be explored in this tech world and so little accomplished! Alas, Apple doesn’t indulge in concepts to realizations.

3) Apple Mac Folder by Tryi Yeh

Tryi Yeh attempts to give us a skinny MacBook with an awesome UI, which is similar to the iPod. Those who enjoyed MacBook Air will probably like this, but the question is, will Jobs go for something like this?

2) iSphere by Chris De Schryver

The iSphere is here coz I’m 110% sure that we won’t see something like this coming out of the Apple stables. It’s bulky, gaudy and totally kitsch; three things that Job’s design team doesn’t believe in.

1) iWish by Mat Brady

If PSP and iPhone got married and had babies, then iWish would be their first born! Since this match is never gonna happen, there is no point in wishful thinking dear Mat. However if a romance does blossom; a baby like this would be a step in the right direction. Even better that the PSP phone rumors we have been hearing about since ages.
