The AK-47 Walkie Talkie phone

The AK-47 Walkie Talkie phone is the perfect thing for that urban warrior on your gift list, featuring a built in dual band 900 / 1800 GSM phone and working Walkie Talkie all bundled in a slick retro handset. Packed in its cleverly designed carrying case -- replete with a Chinese Army red star -- is the handset, headset, USB cable, instruction booklet (in Chinese only), and thanks to the belt strap, it's ready to accent any modern military ensemble. With a huge 6800 mAh battery, this 255 gram handset will give you one month of standby time or 30 to 50 hours of talk time, which is ideal for really extended assignments or cross-country treks. Rounding out a pretty full list of specs is a 2.2 inch touchscreen, 2 megapixel "shooter" (that's a pun, get it?), GPRS connectivity, MP3 ringtones, LCD flashlight, and a microSD slot that supports up to 1GB. All of this mighty backwoods mojo can be yours for the paltry sum of $225.

Laugh as you may, but we have a construction company and I would love to put these phones onsite.

Also would love to drop one in the tool boxes we ship, so that when they mysteriously go missing with our transport companies, we could track them down.
