"Last Word"-iPhone The Costume

Friday, October 30, 2009

SUSIE GHARIB: And finally tonight, if you're looking for a clever Halloween costume, you'll be hard pressed to top these Florida iPhone fans. John Savio and Reko Rivera have taken their tech worship to a new level, actually becoming iPhones. They did it by hooking their iPhones to 42-inch flat screen televisions and powering the whole get up with a car battery. These guy phones don't just look good. They're fully functional! The get-ups cost about a thousand dollars apiece to make. And Paul, they hope to get some of that money back by winning costume contests. They get my vote.

KANGAS: So this is the latest, the latest thing in Research in Motion? What do we call this?

GHARIB: Well, I think that's a different company, but right idea.

KANGAS: OK.
