THE GIORGIO ARMANI PHONE
Samsung has teamed up with Giorgio Armani to launch a luxury mobile phone. The Giorgio Armani-Samsung P520 phone is a tri-band GPRS/EDGE with a 2.6-inch LCD display. The features include a touchscreen which gives off a light vibration when selecting an icon, Bluetooth, microSD expansion, music player, USB 2.0 and a 3 Megapixel camera. It is the size of a credit card, 10.5 millimeters in thickness and comes in a black leather carrying case. I am very excited about this collaboration as these are two of my favourite brands in their respective fields. For those who are lucky enough to be living in Europe, they will get their hands on them in November for €400 (US $565 / AU $645). The rest will have to wait until January 2008 which is when they will also launch the LCD TVs as part of the Samsung-Giorgio Armani high-end product line for Armani/Casa.
