Video Preview of the Forthcoming O2 Cocoon Mobile Phone

There is no doubt that this is one serious looking piece of kit. It was designed by the cool Swedish firm Syntes Studio, and the video below gives you some idea of the inspiration for the unusual shape. Some have called it an iPhone copy but I think they are wrong! The Cocoon is white like an ipod and it is fashionable but that is where the similarities end, apart for the 2 mega-pixel camera which will lets down both the iPhone and the Cocoon.
