The mouse phone is a silly little cellphone in the shape of a strangely mutated Mickey Mouse. While the average lawyer might overlook the similarity in shape to another ubiquitous mouse, I think even a dumb lawyer’s interest would be piqued by the addition of the Disney logo to this lump of plastic detritus. That said, it costs $225 and includes an FM radio tuner and audio/video playback. Apparently the ears are speakers. Go figure.
