"Working" Apple iPhone Costumes Just Plain Win [Costumes]
Gizmodo — Powered by a car battery and full-size 42-inch LCD TVs, these working iPhone Halloween costumes from Apple costume idiot savants "Reko and Bobby" are surely iPhone fanaticism manifested in physical form.

Working Apple iPhone Costume Anyone?
