The Guinness World Records named the Modu phone as the lightest cell phone in the world. At just 1.5 ounces and 2.8 by 1.4 by 0.3 inches, the Modu is a full ounce lighter than the already miniature Pantech C300. Without a doubt, it’s the tiniest cell phone I’ve seen outside of Zoolander.

Adding onto to the article that I wrote yesterday, we are really having some unbelievable press coverage this week.
“Citibank today announced that it will make Obopay’s mobile person-to-person payment service available to Citibank checking account customers on a trial basis. Citibank is the first U.S. retail bank to trial an integrated mobile payment service.
The Citi Obopay consumer trial will commence in summer 2008 and will allow Citibank customers to receive and send money from their mobile phone directly into or out of their Citibank checking account. New and existing Citibank customers will be able to enroll in the Citi Obopay mobile payment service in a highly secure manner through Citibank.com or in Citibank branches in select markets.”

Translation: If you are a Citi customer, just add Obopay to your checking account and you can transfer money in and out from your mobile phone!
