I've never seen this Ericofon design before, because I was -30 when it was released in 1956, but it's so stylish and cool that I'm glad someone decided to hack it into a Bluetooth receiver.

The project brings a lot of the Ericofon's charm into this century, with the ringtone replicated and even a dialtone, for anyone who remembers what that is. Instructions and documentation of the process are available on the creator's site, but you'll have to find your own Ericofon to do it.
