You will need:
• 1 Star Trek Communicator toy
• One Bluetooth phone
• A microcontroller
• Many other electrical bits
• One smart Asian nerd girl

Thus, Diana Eng wedged the good bits of a cellphone into a Communicator, and now it works, complete with the sound effects. Pretty damn sharp -- if you have the parts and skills, you can learn how to make one yourself here. Thanks to Borg-Cylon Love Child for the tip.
