We’ll i'll admit to never having heard of Taiwanese cellphone manufacturer Okwap, who are said to be totally big over there right now,but they’re trying to give their handsets a little spiritual edge over the competition with a new divinely-blessed limited-edition cellphone. Each of the 2,000 Matsu phones have been blessed in a ritual at a Matsu temple (Matsu is the Chinese goddess of the sea or something like that) and comes with a hologram of the deity on the back, religious chant ringtones, and Matsu-themed wallpaper. We fully expect Motorola to strike back with a Jesus phone soon, though we’d probably feel bad swearing on one.
