Pictures of Japanese phone with Moog-like interface
Mobile phones seem to be going all retro. The other day we posted Alcatel's new OT-C850, which bore more than a passing resemblance to an early-80s handheld games machine. Now we have news of Mitsubishi's new Music Porter X, which seems like it wants to be a MiniMoog when it grows up!
More details of the Mitsubishi Moog phone (and apologies to the much-missed Bob Moog!) after the jump.

Mitsubishi Music Porter X 'Moog phone'
The Mitsubishi Music Porter X is a mobile music phone with 1GB of memory. And, er, that's about it feature-wise, which is somewhat unusual for a Japanese phone.

Now if only it played like a Moog, too!
Oh, and for those of you still unsure what a Moog is...shame on you! Here's a pic:
