Yes, Microsoft has a plan. They plan to create a new phone handset to go against Apple’s iPhone and also being very creative with its prototype name by calling it the ofone (yeah right). The ofone has a round LCD screen at the center, and 3 twistable handles that will goes around the LCD screen like a boomerang.

Each of the swiveled body represents a function. The first one is a keypad, followed by a QWERTY keyboard and the last one is a music player control pad.

i just don’t even know where to begin commenting on this piece…
I like how you have to rotate it to read your email… classic.
wait, blue screen!
speaking of the blue screen of death, unlike a damn pc, it throws your back out when you have to toss it out the window, unlike the ofone, it’s light and easy to throw against the wall (just make sure you have don’t have too much space between you and the wall, otherwise it will boomerang right back at ya’)
Oh one more feature as a selling point for ofone is that you can use it as a defense weapon :)
This video is mildly funny until you realize they spent more time on the design of this fake commercial than they did the Zune, then its REALLY funny.
First they ignore you,
then they laugh at you,
then they fight you,
