Concept Phone is Weather Centric

windowphone_02.jpg How brilliant is this phone?!? Okay, brilliantly genius or brilliantly impossible - that's for you to decide but designer Seunghan Song does a good job at wetting my desire. Ewww. It's true. I digress.

The phone is a simple clear glass (plastic?) pane, fully touchscreen of course, but instead of some boring weather widget, the entire screen is imbued with current weather conditions that dynamically influence how you interact with it. For example. If it's frosty cold outside, you can draw on the screen as if you're drawing on a cold window pane. Certain controls can only be activated by blowing your breath on it to build up enough fog to bring up the interface. More pics after the jump.

This is completely genius! I can't believe that. I don't know how I'd feel talking on that phone (would need bluetooth), but it's really awesome!
