The Blu Jacket concept from Lunar Design aims to turn our children’s children into walking billboards using an electronic fabric based on e-paper technology and space-age organic fabrics. It could display your mood throughout the day, pull up maps using a built-in GPS module, display photos, video and (gasp) even advertisements.

iPhone is already into testing, and numerous units are floating around in super secret pockets. A trusted source from Engadget got a chance to check one out, here’s what they heard.

- 3G proper GPS!
- The the whole thing is glossy black, from top to bottom. The volume buttons are now chrome.
- The battery is (still) not removable.
- The phone itself will be slightly thicker than the first gen device.
- The headphone jack will no longer be recessed, and will finally be flush with the body.
- The device itself uses roughly the same size and resolution screen as the first generation product.
- No solid word on battery life or storage capacity.
