'GhostRadar' Goes Portable

One of The Raw Feed's favorite crazy Japanese companies, SolidAlliance, has taken the "GhostRadar" concept and designed a PORTABLE version designed to dangle off of cell phones. The company announced today an alliance with a company called Strapya, and their intent to later sell the device as a cell phone accessory. (In Japan, most cell phone users have a strap with personalized junk that hangs off the phone.) GhostRadar "works" by detecting changes in surrounding magnetic waves, indicating the presence of a ghost. The original version, launched about a year ago, also served as a USB storage drive. Given the timing, you may be tempted to believe that GhostRadar is some kind of April Fool's prank. But if you know anything about SolidAlliance, most of their products are at least this nutty. The tiny GhostRadar goes on sale in late April. I want one.
