Else Mobile: "Time to try something else"?

Surely you delayed your attention on this post because of the picture with a beautiful futuristic gadget. Yes, the same thing happened to me. But what is it? Just a render? Another concept? Someone's dreams? No, this is a new device that I want to tell you about.


The Israeli company Emblaze Mobile (known to its people for the never-released smartphone Edelweiss) recently presented its new brainchild, Else First, in London. So, this is a communicator running on the Access Linux Platform. The first thing that catches your eye is the interface itself. In his speech, Amir Kupervas (CEO of Emblaze Mobile) described it, of course, as “intuitive” and revolutionary. You can evaluate the interface a little lower by watching a video with a prototype and photos.
