THE ULTRA LIGHT Modu 1 phone will hit the shops in the UK this month. The Modu 1 is made by an Israeli manufacturer and the company claims it is a Guinness Book of World Records candidate, no less. Not just small, the phone is hyped as the lightest cell phone that money can buy.
We're not sure about the Guinness World Record claim but for punters we're guessing it will be a pain to use. Its size is about half the distance from your ear to your mouth, making it impractical unless it's used hands-free. Some things just have to be at least a certain size to be useful.

The Modu 1 Mobile phone is as stripped down as they come. It measures 72.1mm x 37.6mm x 7.8mm and has a 1.3-inch OLED display and a built-in speaker. You get 2GB of memory, Bluetooth, an MP3 player and you can even make phone calls with it.
That aside, the Modu 1 cell phone also has an array of what we're sure are tasteful interchangeable jacket covers.
"Our launch in the UK with Purelygadgets is an exciting development in Modu's distribution," said Sariel Engel, Modu's VP of sales and business development.
"This partnership will make the Modu phone and Modu jackets available to a new and dynamic market. This is a winning scenario for Modu, Purelygadgets and UK mobile phone customers."
Purelygadgets is selling the Cell phone for £129.99 on its website.Modu 1 - World’s Lightest Mobile Phone in UK set Guinness World Records 2010 Video
