This Softphone concept phone from designer Quian Jiang uses a series of discs that have electronically wired cotton fabric in between. The idea here is that things are soft and flexible. For example, being able to fold up the keyboard would save some space. How about simply squeezing it to initiate or end a call?

The Softphone is a concept device at the moment, so those who absolutely love to squeeze the Charmin will just have to wait. One problem I see with this device is that it would attract dirt like a magnet. Who wants a filthy cotton squeeze phone? You might as well make your calls on a half-used roll of toilet paper.
