How about a handset in which every face carries a keypad, microphone, and speaker? Imagine grabbing it quickly - from inside your bag, from off a shelf, from under a car seat - and freely interacting with it without needing to turn it over or align it right side up?

This was the line of thinking that over several years led me finally to conceive of CUin5. Whichever surface you touch first becomes active and aglow, while the others lock in place.

Talk from a wide surface. Talk from the edge. See beyond its limitations and read the poetry between the lines.
