iPPeel iPhone case puts a cell phone on the back of your iPhone

We know the iPhone is only mediocre at accepting calls, but come on, people, this is just ridiculous!

OK, OK, the iPPeel doesn?t exist to be redundant, or facilitate another round of those ?Yo Dawg I Heard You Like X? jokes the Internet found funny five years ago. It actually exists to solve a problem corporate road warriors are all too familiar with: roaming charges.

We?re not talking anything complex here: this is the cutting edge of 1999 technology. The big advantage of this phone is that it?s small enough to be part of an iPhone case, and that it?s a dual-SIM card phone.

For those unfamiliar, a SIM card is basically your phone?s identification. The SIM lets you access a network without being charged roaming, for example. The iPhone has a micro-SIM card, for its purposes, but the iPPeel uses two full-sized SIM cards.

So, in theory, if you were flying to Europe and Asia a lot, you could have an American iPhone, and have Asia and European SIMs in the iPPeel, while still using the iPhone?s WiFi capabilities for the Internet.

Sound neat? It is, but it?s going to run you $70 for the privilege of saying you love phones so much, you put a phone on your phone.
