The Compass Phone

 

Who says life cannot be a fairy tale?

Here is an interesting gadget that helps you live that fairy tale life or a typical screen play from a clichéd romantic movie.

Boy and girl like each. One of them moves away. The other uses the Compass Phone to track down the lover.

Well… it’s not quite like this, but it could. This Compass Phone points towards the direction of the person you are trying to track through an in-built GPS receiver. This makes locating someone you are supposed to meet a whole lot easier.
