Normally we give traditional wireless home phones about as much attention around here as talking moose heads on the wall, but when the New York Times points out one which might be cool we have to check it out. They in fact seem to be right - the forthcoming GE Premiere DECT 6.0 28821FJ3 has a nifty GOOG-411 button centered for you to press for business information calls.

GOOG-411 you say? Isn’t that a Google property? That’s right - Thomson and Google inked a little paid attention to deal at CES last month which brings the one-touch, auto-dial GOOG-411 button functionality to a number of its 2008 DECT 6.0 Interference Free phones. This feature is tied to Google’s free, voice-activated, business directory assistance service and will actually be part of more than a dozen GE phones, available in April.

Mild mannered blogger by day, red phone wielding crusader by night. That’s the way we like it here at SlipperyBrick now that we’ve got word of a new red Batphone designed by AbleComm and available for sale for $112.

The red Batphone is inspired by the Batman television series from the 60s. While you don’t have Alfred the butler around to answer it for you can still feel like you are Adam West getting ready to suit up for crime fighting when the phone’s bright red light lights up and flashes to draw your attention.
