Sure, we’ve seen plenty of iPhone clones in our day, but we’ll say this: this is the clome to beat all clomes. It really takes the KIRF standard up a notch, running the best fake OS X we’ve seen to date. This one’s identity is less confused than many of the knockoffs we usually see, and if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one of these 4GB having-babies… well, you just might be able to convince your grandma that it’s the iPhone 3G S. Video is after the break.

This DIY project takes common parts, including a clock from IKEA and a fluorescent desk lamp, and turns them into this sweet robot voice modulator that makes even the most emotional, dramatic vocals seem cold and calculating.
This doesn’t look like the easiest project we’ve seen; it calls for laser cutting and a significant amount of audio tech know-how. But the results are pretty much exactly what you’d want, and it’s definitely a sweet-looking end result. This thing even features audio-in so you can plug in instruments, pre-recorded sounds, or anything else you want, and the pitch-shifting and vibrato buttons let you adjust the robot sounds on the fly. Check out the instructions for more info on how to sound like a robot. [Instructables via MAKE]
