Hanging up on someone just isn’t as satisfying as it used to be. Scratch that. Hanging up on someone isn’t as satisfying as we imagine it would be… if we had any point of reference. Just because we grew up on cellphones and YouTube instead of rotary and Betamax doesn’t mean we can’t get no satisfaction. In this case it’s something as simple as the iRetrofone iPhone Dock. Each iRetrofone is hand-sculpted and hand-cast in urethane resin and is compatible with sync and charge. It comes in a variety of styles ranging from clear to steampunk and also includes bright red if you’re going for that emergency Batphone vibe. Since the handset is fully functional when you dock your iPhone (not included of course), you’re probably going to have to upgrade your plan because this is reason enough to actually talk on the phone. Even if it is just to hang up.
