"It's Alive!!"
Having seemingly exhausted all possible permutations of inanimate objects for use as cell phone mascots (don't count on it, though), Japan's Strapya World has begun enlisting the animate. Really now, who wouldn't want a miniature living plant sealed into what may be the world's smallest mason jar - swinging along on a strap attached to their cell phone? The Super Bio-Tech Mobile Plant Cell Phone Strap lets you take your own tiny, living plant wherever you take your phone - without ever worrying about feeding or watering!
Put on your plants!
One might ask how the plant stays alive without food or water, but that's an unanswerable question. You see, your tiny Cattleya or Cactus has all the food and water it needs - in the form of a specially engineered "bio-tech fertilized colorful solid liquid".
Guess who's calling?
Strapya offers the Super Bio-Tech Mobile Plant Cell Phone Strap in your choice of Pink or Blue... can you see where this is leading? Right - your lady friend will be buying one of each and giving the blue one to you. Tie it to your phone if you know what's good for you. C'mon, it's not so bad... it's not like it's tied to your, er, never mind. Just grin & bear it, and show the world you love and are loved!
Pink and Blue, from Me to You...
The Super Bio-Tech Mobile Plant Cell Phone Strap in Blue or Pink houses a tiny, living Cattleya or Cactus and only asks that you don't leave it under the exposed sun. As Strapya sez, "It's so gentle". Get them from Strapya World, Japan's leading retailer of cell phone straps and accessories, for just 1,029 yen (about $8.79 US) plus shipping.
