One of my favorite geeky/nerd gadget sites out there is Nerd Approved. They always managed to find the best nerdy stuff to spiff up your office or simply add to your uber-geeky collection of random stuff. Today I noticed they are featuring a ‘Presidential Hotline Phone’ and couldn’t help but want to order one. Priced at $98, the phone actually works and could/should be used to make yourself seem a little more important than you really are :P Funny stuff. The official description:

Imagine people’s reactions when your bright red phone rings, with the presidential seal on the face plate, and you pick up the handset and say, “Yes, Mr. President.” At that moment, you are probably the second most important person in the world.

Apparently this same device has been used in movies made by Paramount and Walt Disney Studios as well. You can pick one up from redhotphones.com for $98.00.
