Pocket Scale Masquerades as iPhone

Posted by Joel Johnson, January 21, 2008 10:56 AM | permalink

This "CP3-500" pocket scale has a removable faceplate that has been painted to look like an iPhone. Flip the case over to uses it as a tray to cradle that which will be measured.

The CP3-500 works up to 500 grams, but only in 0.1 gram increments, making it unsuitable for connoisseurs of the finer white powders. It's $53.

You should never buy from someone who doesn't have a NIST calibration traceability certificate for their scale.

Seeing cops are already being told to consider a scale "drug paraphernalia", making an effort to conceal it would surely make this even more suss.

I don't get this product at all. What the heck does the iPhone have to do with this scale. Is this a non-clever clever way of jumping on iPhone's success. Though a mini-scale is a cool thing to have to measure the various weight reductions in coming Apple products, someday the shuffle with not be visible (though I think SNL already played this up).
