Nokia RX-4 Medallion
 

Nokia RX-4 MedallionIt is rare to find a gadget that leaves LP speechless but the start of this week brought just such a moment, setting eyes on a Nokia RX-4 Medallion is quite a shock as it's not what you expect it to be.

Is it a new rotary engine mobile phone? Is a phone that you wear in an eighties medallion man fashion? well no in fact it's a decorative digital timepiece with customisable images! The RX4 is based around a 96 x 96 pixel 4096 colour screen that hangs on a cord around your neck, the screen can display an image beamed via infrared from a compatible Nokia's phone, the Medallion can store 8 images which you can choose from to match your mood.

The steel cased RX-4 is not that heavy at 36 grams and the battery will last for up to 15 hours before recharging form a standard Nokia's mobile charger, the medallion can handle JPEG images of up to 800k and had approx 2mb of SRam on which to store them.

The 47 mm x 32 mm x 14.8 mm digital trinket is supposedly an image statement and a way of showing your innermost thoughts along with other "marketing phrases" in fact it's really a glorified clock as a touch of the screen reveals the time presuming you can swing the pendant so you can see it while round your neck.

Perhaps the biggest statement is that you have £149.99 to spend on possibly the least functional gadget we've seen this year, sure it looks nice and would be quite a novel thing to wear, once! So if you do like the idea of having a low resolution picture of your dog on a digital device that needs charging every half day hanging round your neck step up and press the Amazon button below.
