 Talk about a geek in training. This lucky baby has her very own iPhone! It's made of wood, of course, but hey, it's an iPhone! Plus, it won't suffer any serious damage should she get the urge to chew on it. And that, my friend, is exactly the point. Flickr-user cjonesgo, who carved the toy--which he has aptly named the iPhoney--by hand, explains:
Some good friends have a teething baby and there is nothing she wants
more than to get her hands on Dad's iPhone. This is an attempt to find
an acceptable substitute...
All in all it took about 4 hours to
make. I probably could have done it in less, but I had a very
discerning client. Everything had to be perfect!
It's all
natural, nearly indestructible, and just a neat thing to have around.
The best thing about this project is, of course, the smiling baby. The
worst thing is that I don't even have a an iPhone of my own and this
has given me a serious case of iPhone envy!
Now I have to make one for myself, because I am jealous of a baby.

what about splinters?

@robit: if the kid is making splinters of this thing, the kid is probably WAY past the teething stage, and thus doesn't need it any more.
