I asked this on a deal way back and was told that it's only 110v (and not 220v) can anyone confirm this?

Good thing when the iphone 5 comes out this won't fit with it. Gotta love those port changes. Yes they're giving people an adapter (supposedly) but when the product requires the phone to fit in it perfectly, probably isn't going to work too well.

@andrasko15:
They do that to give you the privilege of buying a whole new set of add-ons.

@andrasko15: you don't actually need to plug this in to use it. It works wirelessly via bluetooth. Though you won't be able to charge it while using it (suppose it won't fit)

Did anyone else think "Bananaphone" while reading the little blurb in the sponsored deal tab?

I'd be more impressed with it being a "retro" phone if it had rotary dial.

I don't get why anyone would want this. So you can pretend you are using an old-timey phone?

Most docks don't fit a iPhone with an otterbox.
I wonder if this one will?

@thunderthighs:

...Yet fractionally slower than a super llama.

Since thunder is slower than lightning (it's just physics, Miss Thighs; no reflection on you personally), I therefore conclude that super llamas approach the speed of light! They could probably exceed it on a bicycle...

What's that? You believe otherwise? Prove it! Yeah, that's what I thought.

@colbytitus: I want one because my house is a black hole for cell coverage. There's a few places that I can get reception, but if I move around while I talk things get garbled all to hell. With this, I'll be able to leave the phone where the reception is good and wander around the house as I please.

Has anyone every had one of these? The reviews on Amazon aren't great.

I'm mostly impressed w/ the floating hand set. Now that's technology!

I bought one off woot and had to return it because it wouldn't connect to my iphone. the replacement works fine, but it was a hassle getting it replaced by woot. It's very cool as a charger and the bluetooth headset connects to 2 iphones and a wall jack.

@thunderthighs: Of course there is. Silly me, why didn't I think of that.

Although even with a rotary-dial app, you still don't get the tactile response of sticking your finger in the hole, turning the dial at the right speed to register the number, etc. Good but not complete, IMHO.

In other words, some things just can't be done by software alone.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
