Lovely gadget... Where can I buy myself one?

Grandma-minded desing. Useful, really. I wish I could find a grandma-minded mobile.

I wish I knew. It was in the house we were staying in and we never saw the generous owners who let us stay while they were away on vacation.

It's a larger model but at $20 it's quite cheap. The linked PDF manual suggests decent support for a wide range of producers. I've been looking for something that'll work with my Yamaha amplifier -- this might be it.

@Jordi: Would a grandma-minded mobile be truly mobile?
Jordi Funollet December 30, 2007, 06:12 PM
Mobile's keyboards and screens are getting bigger and better every year, even with mobiles getting smaller. What my Grandma Fina needs is less features: remove SMS, multimedia-messaging, camera, MP3 player, calendaring, internet connection... Just a simple agenda (managed by her daughter) and no menus.

And actually, she carries her handbag everywere so, you know... size doesn't matter. ;-)

Calls this to mind;

The thing looks too big to hold, I think you're best poking it from above, like in the photo.
