Modu modular phone wants to combine all gadgets into one

A new device dubbed Modu wants to be your only gadget. Modu is a barebones cellphone which can slide into other gadgets such as a media player, a GPS, or a stylish keypad for the cellphone.

The device can be completely modified so there are almost unlimited possibilities for what it can do and look like. Although simply changing the skin of the cell phone is one option, it’s also possible to turn the phone into just about anything else. An anything else with calling ability, that is.

It appears that Modu is trying to take on big competitors such as the iPhone. However, instead of trying to have it all in one, it is trying to put one into all.

Although the pictures are rendered and the phone is a concept for now, Modu has a release date of October 1st set in Israel, Italy, and Russia. Of course it would make its way to the US soon after as most gadgets do. The price is said to be around $300 for the Modu and two jackets. There will be a total of 10 jackets available at launch.
