KTF's EV-W100 Phone Lets You Be Deepthroat
By taking a feature common to webcams'"lip syncing your face to a cartoon avatar'"and putting it in a phone, KTF's providing "privacy" calling for anyone with this 3G phone. How it works: instead of playing back the video broadcast to you, the EV-W100 uses the lip-sync program to generate either a male, female, pig, or gorilla image to stand in for your caller. The phone's other features, such as a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth stereo, and a 330,000 word dictionary are fairly standard. It's interesting to note that people in Korea and Japan are so used to 3G video calling that they've had time to develop applications like this, whereas here in the US, setting someone's picture to show up when they call is some kind of monumental achievement.
