Pocket scale looks like iPhoneWhat has our society come to when drug-dealers and calorie-counters look for pocket scales that embody the new hotness in the cellphone industry? Who are we kidding – calorie-counters? This thing’s marketed at illicit-substance traders – drug-pushers, drug-dealers, whatever you want to call them.

The iPhone-shaped scale is being offered for $52.49 and features, well, an iPhone-shaped “expansion cover.” We like the attempt at the iPhone-homescreen look. Everyone else is jumping on the iPhone bandwagon, what’s to stop a pocket-scale manufacturer from doing the same?

Now, does this thing work with current jailbreak solutions? We imagine that could be a useful feature for anyone in the drug-trafficking business.

Oh, and if you’re wondering what this is doing on a mobile-related post, it’s shaped like an iPhone. That qualifies as mobile-related in our book.
