Turn your GBA into a videophone

GBA Video PhoneI've only just posted a link on peripherals that turns your GBA into more than just a gaming machine. Now, there's something called Cam-Pho Advance by a network solutions company called Digital Act that will turn it into a phone... a videophone! Now, what will these innovative peripherals makers come up with next? Something that'll turn your GBA into a toaster?
The Cam-Pho Advance uses a large game cartridge that comes equipped with an internal microcamera and analog modem, effectively turning the GBA into a videophone. When connected, the screen will show both the user and the person on the other end of the line. Communicating with another user is done with a speaker headphone that connects to the cartridge. The GBA's cross pad and buttons will be used to dial phone numbers and change the device's settings.
