Thought these retro handsets for cell phones and VOIP-enabled computers from Native Union that we got before Christmas were fun. So did our customers to A+R on Abbot Kinney since this line of Moshi Moshi phones sold out in 48 hours. They are back and we should be getting the yellow, blue and green models already in our store online soon. Until then, we have the black and red with a base online.
Part of the appeal, of course, is the juxtaposition of the retro receiver with the space-age PDA. (By the way, the line is named after what Japanese folks say on greeting one another out of tradition and, for some, superstition. According to lore, ghosts and naughty fox spirits cannot repeat the word Moshi.)
Stacy Julian of Big Picture Classes, a customer from out of state visiting us this week with a band of lively girlfriends, saw an instant love connection between the green Moshi and the Kate Spade case of her iPhone.
Now that's a stylish connection.
So fun to see my phone on your blog! Thanks for the link to Big Picture Classes. It was a delight to meet you all!
