Vodafone Japan's karaoke phone

Despite redeeming features such as a 1.3 megapixel camera, Toshiba’s latest handset for Vodafone Japan both crosses a boundary of good taste and gives invaluable ammo to people who like to moan about how annoying cellphones are. It doubles as a karaoke mike. Yes, you heard us right. You download backing tracks to the phone from the web, plug the handset into your TV, and sing into the mouthpiece. Hey presto, voice plus music issue forth from the TV speakers. Fun at parties! Just don't invite us.
