Despite the Altec Lansing logo the concept's designer decided to use on the graphics, this isn't actually something made by the company. So, can someone to just go ahead and make design into reality already? Because I definitely don't fondle my current speakers enough. [Yanko Design]

No offense to the guy at preThinking, but there's a reason why Palm didn't make the back of their phone look like a ad or something you'd see at a NASCAR event. Leave Britney alone, as it were. [Prethinking]

Apparently, the energy consumption of the device is so low that you could run it every day for eight hours and only pay the equivalent of around five cents extra on your electricity bill for the month. However, this isn't the first time we have come across an air conditioner of this type—Thanko came out with a version last year that is powered via USB. It also appears to be a little cheaper than the Kuchofuku model, but we are not sure how well it stacks up in terms of butt cooling performance and power consumption.

It is common knowledge that prison would be a bitchin' hang out if: 1). There were no criminals about and 2). There were no rectal violations going on. Unfortunately, most prisons are founded on the above two tenets and Big Sandy penitentiary, in Kentucky, is no different. Thus, when an unidentified inmate's partner paid him a visit with an iPhone, our man was overwhelmed. He was so excited he probably did a sissy punch the air gesture and the like. However, after realising the law enforcement would confiscate his new toy, he did what any man would do: He shoved it up his ass.

Though it may have seemed to be a good idea at the time, when he came to retrieve the device he encountered some difficulty. It was stuck and he was royally screwed. Obviously, he lacked an IQ above 10, because instead of swallowing his pride and gaining some medical help he hoped, in vain and excruciating pain, that he would shit the device out. Man, did he wait—for three whole, colon-congested days.

The wall of his rectum became ripped and infected; finally he was forced to seek medical attention after he could no longer hide his discomfort. Upon operating, the flabbergasted doctors found, to their amazement, an iPhone—they tried hard to save the phone, but they were only doctors after all. They did an excellent job on the patient however, who is said to be recovering and is all set for more anal adventures when he returns to normal imprisoned life. We are guessing he is going to need some explanation to hand, drop any suggestions below. All aside, we hope you have all learnt a valuable lesson: Do not put an iPhone up your bum, you will probably have activation problems and reception will be poor. Not to mention the whole infection/pain thing.

UPDATE: This story is not confirmed with the original source. Someone's bum may or may not be in critical condition due to the JesusPhone.

Still no clue whether they solved that fart potential blowing up into your face problem though. – Jason Chen

The only downside I can see is if you let one go, the air cooler will blow it up right into your face. Blech. – Jason Chen
