This phone was made to look like a pack of smokes and it can also hold a half a pack of cigarettes in the back...- [via] Link.
It could be a nicotine fueled response to the cell jammers (both commercial and DIY) which also fit inside packs of cigarettes too. Pictured above, I believe this one was from "advanced-intelligence" - Link.
And there's the open source hardware version, the WaveBubble - Link.

The advanced-intelligence jammer looks suspiciously like the adafruit jammer, but they are claiming twice the range she does without an external antenna. That would really suck if these guys are selling a devices she put in all the work on when she herself cannot even sell a kit due to FCC regs.

Reminds me of the short story "A Piece of Wood" by Ray Bradbury.

That's a pretty cool idea, but that particular cell phone jammer is so small, why do you need to conceal it?
