Ubiquitous interfaces

Innovations in user interfaces aren't that common, so I was really pleased to see NTT's new cell phone has a novel way of showing the current battery status...

The phone comes with a built in motion sensor and the current battery charge is displayed on screen as a glass of water; the emptier the glass, the less power in the battery. Novel, but immediately understandable, a classic ubiquitous computing interface.
