I saw this a few weeks ago but didn’t post it, because I’m lazy and because it’s hitting shelves in the US no time soon. But the new photos, coupled with the designer label, are just too good to resist. It’s black but, whatever, it’s sexy and it’s PRADA. This isn’t just a dressed up version of an already existing handset like the Dolce Gabbana Razr.

The LG KE850 Prada phone, which looks like Apple’s iPhone to me, will be going on sale in select mobile shops and PRADA stores in Europe (read: the UK, France, Germany and Italy) at the end of February, and in parts of Asia by March.

While I’m at it, I’d like to take a moment to moan about the quality of mobile phones / cell phones available in the US. I’ve voiced more than once my annoyance at being relegated to the ubiquitous (and by ubiquitous I mean ‘Even the terribly unfashionable girl who still has 1980’s hair has one’) RAZr whenever I’m in America.

Yeah, I know, I could pay roaming charges on my British baby but…not gonna happen. I just bought my US laptop for half it’s UK price. Why can’t I get a decent phone here? Why can’t I get the PRADA? *Sigh*

Technophiles go here.
