Modu, a new cell phone manufacturer based in Israel, is developing a new set of modular components for cell phones, letting consumers add pieces and parts to a miniature core cell phone to enhance its functionality — or even just its look and feel. Modu’s business plan calls for three basic products in its initial lineup, which it’s calling the “Modu ecosystem.” The core is the Modu, a tiny cellular phone about the size of a domino. Next come Modu jackets, which are stylishly designed phone enclosures, and Modu mates, which are Modu-enabled consumer electronics devices.
