Actimax fancies the Pherophone
JAPANESE scientists have developed a mobile phone which can advise users if 
there is a sexually compatible partner close by and an Essex based telephony 
supplier could be one of the first companies in this country to stock the 
device after securing an exclusive distribution deal with the makers. The 
'Pherophone', manufactured by Natsuki Corp, uses advance pheromone 
technology to detect if a sexually compatible person is near and sends a 
silent message advising the user. The phone also shows how close you are to 
the person via an indicator bar similar to a mobile service signal strength 
indicator.
John Massey one of the UK's leading suppliers of converged telephony 
solutions told CNET. "I have met the manufacturers who came to my Basildon 
HQ to show me how the phones work. It was hilarious seeing my staff running 
round room checking out who was compatible with whom and it threw up some 
interesting surprises! I have ordered an initial batch and hope to have them 
available via our website in a month!"

Kirsty Jones, senior consultant at leading online dating agency 
Getadata.com, commented: "This is a brilliant invention and will save all 
that wasted time chatting up people that will ultimately have no interest in 
you. I expect it will become an essential tool for people in crowded bars 
and anywhere there is a chance to meet someone special. Just imagine the 
thrill of getting a full indicator bar when sitting next to someone on the 
train!"
