Prideaux , who was born without his left arm , always had bother finding a stead to well use his earphone — he would either have to balance it on his prosthetic arm or commit it flat on a table , neither of which was commodious to do . So he pitched the idea of embedding a dock for his Nokia C7 ( Nokia ? ! ) inside his fibreglass and laminate prosthetic limb .
technician at Exeter Mobility Center make a cast of characters of Prideaux ’ Nokia phone and work up a new prosthetic limb to those specifications . It worked just as Prideaux want . He distinguish the Telegraph :
This phone is slightly narrower than an iPhone and has both a qwerty and alphanumeric board , which is well-off for me to use . My Nokia C7 sit within my forearm , between my stump socket and the single thickening circle that bear my branch attachment in place . Now when I get call I can either sustain my arm up to my capitulum or put it on speaker phone . I can also take it out if I need to . Texting is also much easy and a mass safer .
See ! Versatility . You rid up a sack , have your phone always approachable and live in a futuristic reality where your prosthetic arm is impertinent than a silent sarcoid one . I care your creativeness Mr. Prideaux , I care it a lot . [ Telegraph UK ]
