*squeeeeeee* Pretentious Art Deco phones!

[fluffymark]

Nokia are going to release a pretentious new range of Art Deco phones very soon. Described on their website as:

• sleek object of beauty
  
• compelling as the night
  
• exudes mystery and excitement
  
• like a flame in the darkness
  
• crafted for glamour
  
• bold art deco elegance
  
• exquisite form and dramatic colours
  
• sleekly flamboyant

*shinyshinyshinyshinysqueeeeeeeeee*

I so want one.

Don't buy Nokia: they make nice phones and crap software.

The third time your phone crashes, requiring either a week at some factory, a trip to the West End to a dealer with the original receipt, or forty quid from a backstreet phone unblocker, you'll simply stop using it and go back to your old handset.

Don't buy Nokia.

Every time it happens you lose all the numbers, all the texts, all the dialled numbers, speed-dials, ringtones, stored images and diary entries. Every time. How many times will it take before you stop using it?

Don't buy Nokia. Or if you do, pose with the shiny toy as much as you like and keep a working phone with you at all times.

Have you seen the 7200 model? (http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,6771,47705,00.html) It's a neat little phone and here you can get some great art deco covers for it: such as Klimt's "Kiss". I'm seriously considering getting one, although I am happy enough with my current one :)

I think if you really want a new phone, wait until you get here. Gorbushka (http://www.gorbushka.ru/index_ie.asp) (electronics market) is right across the road from me and you can get an unlocked mobile phone for a pretty decent price (here, there isn't as much discrepency between on-contract and off-contract phone prices, so the prices in general are less evil than in the UK)

The 7280 or whatever is a really nice one in my opinion. Doesn't look like a phone at all. I suspect it'll definately be here by December.

Something for you to think about.

Just thought I'd let you know...

I've spotted the 7260 model here already. Can't remember the price but it certainly wasn't cheap :( Still. Think about it when you get here.
