Recently dialaphone.co.uk posted a new entry on the “The 10 Craziest Cell Phone Accessories.”

Their choices are rather odd, but there’s a couple I definitely have to point out.

Would you like a pen that’ll flash when you receive a phone call? Or better yet.. one that’ll flash when your coworker is getting one? Or a student in your classroom? Then you definitely want the creatively named “Cell Phone Pen” from AsSeenOnTV.com.

Sadly, it must be “within 0-3 feet” of the cell phone in order to work. That’s pretty close! Even more sadly, it only works with TDMA/GSM carriers such as AT&T and TMobile.. All you Verizon and Sprint folks are just out of luck. Boo.

That’s ok though, folks! We still have a little something for you CDMA folks (and GSM too)… How about a garter belt cell phone holder? No purse tonight, ladies? No problem. Just strap your phone to your thigh. Guys too if that’s your thing! This beauty can be found over on www.strapya-world.com :

This one isn’t crazy. Just cool! (And maybe a little dorky) How about a belt clip case that happens to have solar panels on it to help keep your device charged? Find it over on EZPlaza.

The Dialaphone article did have several.. odd choices. The title of their article is “The 10 Craziest Cell Phone Accessories Ever.” Yet they include things like screen protectors for PDAs (Geeky? Really?) as well as Phone Tattoos (Which I have seen some nice looking ones of!). I don’t find these things too crazy. Do you? Have you seen anything crazier? Let me know!
