What would be cool is if the "jackets" expanded beyond handsets with different functionality, and the modu core piece itself (do they just call them "handsets"?) was able to be put in other things like rental cars (could also have radio presets and seat adjustments in it), which could also integrate with the GPS in the car, store your maps, destinations, preferences, and of course connect with an onboard speakerphone. Or slip it in a netbook and do some Internet stuff or turn it into an ebook reader without having to pay for a wireless card. Since the modu concept was first envisioned, and the iPhone came out, phones have gotten a lot less bulky and more elegant, reducing the need for different jackets as mobile phone form factor replacements.

I thought they were originally shooting for jackets with 16GB of storage? Only 2.5GB is a bit of a bummer if that's true.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
