Following up on the vintage phones story a reader tipped us off on a great company producing a weird array of hands free kits. Now most people know about the original vintage handset but these are even better.
Banokia
First up is the Banokia which is an extremely real looking plastic banana that works perfectly as a hands free kit for your high tech mobile phone. Imagine the looks you will get talking into a banana while walking down the street.
Deskia
My favourite is the Deskia which is explained perfectly on the Mockia website:
Experience the joy of 1960’s telecom without actually having to be there. Perfect for the workplace – some lovely retro kitsch to brighten the prospect of any power lunch or board/bored meeting. This lovely gizmo will also look rather charming placed on the bar of your lunchtime “office” or mounted on the dashboard of your Bentley. Please be aware that using this phone whilst driving is an offence and will make it far more difficult to hold your Pimms and Cigar. However stylish you may think it looks, it is dangerous and silly. So get a chauffeur. It is big, clunky, chunky and downright pointless, but I guarantee that everyone you meet will want one too.
Brickia
Last up is the Brickia which makes you look like Zack from Saved by the Bell. This vintage phone doesn’t do anything apart from act as a hands free kit, and for just £39 its a bargain.

I guess there’s a new ending to that “is there a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me” joke.
