Some of the more clever manufacturers, like Palm (NSDQ: PALM) with the Pre and Sony Ericsson (NYSE: SNE) with the XPERIA, rich person been playing with curved sliding mechanisms, but it’s still only a half-solution. Designer Matthias Pugin coooked up these renders of a earphone, the t02, that includes a proper second base proportion of motion, resulting in flush sides when the handset is both surface and closed.
