A TOO SMART PHONE
Okay, this one goes on the counter right next to my watch rewinder and my salad washer (for which, in my younger days, I actually had some use). Here's a "concept phone" that uses a cryptex device (a type of puzzle that uses a cylindrical set of combination rolls that has to be aligned in such a way so it will open up to reveal what is hidden inside) to dial the number. Once you have input the number you want, just twist the top until an LED turns green. And here I went and wasted my time standing in line for the new iPhone.
