From TFA:
"the special edition Star TrekĀ® Communicator Phone offers fans of cool mobile technology the ability ... access ring tones ..."

Ring tones??

Star Trek communicators only make one sound. Ring tones would totally ruin the experience. Anything other than the staticy chirp-chirp-chirp heard when Kirk flips open his communicator would be unthinkable.

As a side note, anybody ever read the Star Trek Technical Manual? The original series version has a complete circuit diagram for the communicator... unfortunately I don't know quite enough about electronics to really figure if it's a real radio circuit or not... it's certainly plenty complex though..

1) Does it run Linux?
2) Does it use an open standard to interface with the teleporter?

Why no picture of it?
