14. Nokia N-Gage (2003-?)

The N-Gage launch is one of the more memorable debacles in tech history as the original device--a combo phone/portable gaming system--had a very odd design for talking. You had to hold the unit vertically on its side, making it look like you were holding a taco. It also sparked "side-talking," which is immortalized on the side-talkin' Web site.
