Nerds spend $2,000 and two years on iPhone Halloween outfits

Posted on Thu Oct 29 2009

So, what's the Halloween costume that all the well-dressed geeks will be wearing this time around? While many of the common folk will be drawn to tasteless dead-celebrity costumes, at least a couple of techies will be going as iPhones—functional ones that they like to call GuyPhones. In this video, two rabid fans, Reko Rivera and John Savio, parade their iPhone getups, which have actual working 42-inch displays. Alas, this costume is not for everyone. It weighs 85 pounds, for one thing, and has a battery life of only 1.5 hours. The two sank more than $2,000 and two years of work into this, so can't you give them 30 seconds of your time?
