Steampunk phone works with a punch card

Forget about your sleek iPhones and your Samsungs and Nokias. Here�s a phone you can rock like it�s 1899. This steampunk phone is a prototype by Arthur Schmitt, a modern day Londoner, not a Londoner from Victorian times.

It sports a wire cover over the earpiece, period gauges, visible screws, a spinning number-counter and more. Perhaps the coolest detail is that it uses punch cards and binary phone numbers to control the phone�s features and make calls. Now that�s progress that makes phonebooks look like rolodex�s. �Can you hear me through me amazingly thick mustache now?�
