While Apple obsesses on slimming down the next iPhone, maker Benjamin Bachmeier instead focused on blowing the iPhone 4 up to Brobdingnagian proportions. That’s why he took a 40-inch LCD 1080p display and installed it in the body of an enormous white iPhone 4.
Bachmeier calls it the iTableous, and while it doesn’t run OS X, it is a pretty impressive Hackintosh. All the buttons even work, and it even has a hinge so you can use it while sitting down. The only thing it needs is an appropriately large case. Maybe Bachmeier should consider laying out the 40 gees for this one?

Someone call guiness….
Nice design, imagine playing doodle jump on it though!
“(…)and while it doesn’t run OS X(…)” – to me it looks like it does run OS X…
It’s great and all, but I couldn’t get past all the heavy breathing.
CD should have come out of the SIM tray. Pretty high quality workmanship overall, and I understand there’s probably a language barrier, but the heavy breathing was pretty distracting.
OMG IT”S THE iPhone 5!!!
the breathing plus the way he is shaking the camera and touching the table in such a sensuous manner leads me to believe he is SO excited about his table, he’s ready to fuck it in the headphone port. Â A little weird, but a cool table.
Hey look, it’s Apple’s answer to the antennagate issue…making the iPhone antenna bigger than the average consumers hand otta shut em up!Â
Cool set up but the guy sounds like a serial killer following his next victim with that creepy breathing

And you thought the Japanese are the only crazy people in this world.
Anyway, which carrier would this giant version be on? And what plans are available?
Shaky McShakerson needs to invest in a tripod.
