Well, if you don't count the planet to orbiting spaceship calls. Oh wait, we do have satellite phones. Guess we need get cracking on the spaceships rather than the phone tech.

They flipped up just like this and had the same buttons, but they were of course plastic, and this weird slate blue color, and of course they worked about as well as toy walkie-talkies ever do. But they were still cool!

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> I've had one of these for years already. Mine looks to be a little better quality than the above picture, however mine does not have any pre-programmed voices. Instead I can record my own voice, and play it back. Also I assume that Paramount must have thought only nerds would buy the item back when I got mine, because it has a built in calculator underneath a barely noticeable inner panel. While I love Star Trek I could have done without the calculator.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> Quick, some one mod it in to a cell phone!

ParadoxControl

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> I am all for shiney gadgets, but this really needs some form of usefulness. I suggest a built in tazer so you can at least fight back when they come at you with the straight jacket.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> it looks very poorly made.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> Well at least I know now where Motorola got their clamshell design.

No you're not. They've been around for a while. The Master Replicas one was pricey but I'll buy one for $30.

I will personally crotch punch anyone who says otherwise. Please include your home address and work hours with your dissenting post.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> @ctthoqqua: Ok, so I'm not crazy. I was sure I'd seen these around over a year ago.

permissionmag

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> Put a cell phone in it, and have the keys on the outside be able to scroll, select, answer, etc. Then add the ability to clamshell, so if you need to actually dial, you can.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> oops x23 already thought of that

RayCeeYa

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> Man that would be a sweet enclosure for a project.

How about putting the guts of a bluetooth headset into one of these?

RayCeeYa

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> Hmm... This is a re-release, I think. My nerd brother has one of these, got some weight to it, with the chirping and the lights and the voices and the hoy-hayvn.

ctthoqqua

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> a better idea than putting a phone in this (since you'd have to cut something somewhere to allow for keypad / power / etc) ... is put a bluetooth headset/speaker in this. could probably keep the sounds it already makes as well. just got to figure how to make the "beep-beep" happen on a call... and the "chirp" happen on opening (along with making the opening action connect the headset).

MAKE... i'm looking in your general direction. make it so.

]]> <![CDATA[Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn't Communicate]]> I'd really like to see a cell phone built into one of these.
