iPhones new competition

[blitzkrieg79]

Hey guys,

Check this out: http://www.tgdaily.com/index.php?op...logsection&id=18&Itemid=41&slideshow=20070619

Apparently Porsche is coming out with an even more cool looking and more expensive phone than iPhone. $1600 for a cell phone is definately out of my league and I wonder if this phone also comes with a cigar cutter as one of it's functions

 

[waterskier2007]

that is probably the dumbest idea. i am spending 600 bucks on an iphone, and that is a lot. if anyone spends 1600 bucks on a phone they are flat out retarded. that phone is not even aesthetically pleasing at all. it looks ridiculous.

 

[Me1000]

it is ugly!

 

[waterskier2007]

it is ugly!

agree haha

smells like vertu

check out www.vertu.com - nokias "super luxury phones"

I mean, they take a BASIC nokia headset, bedazzle it with diamonds and gold, and then sell it for thousands of dollars. I'm sorry, what a joke.

real luxury goods (fine watches, jewelry etc.) sort of keep their value as time goes on. You really can't do that with computer tech, since it's going to become obsolete after 2 - 3 years. That's why I always think it's super silly when you see the 10k phone, or some super-luxury laptop. gimme a break

People who live on a dollar a day would say the same about the 600$ iphone, its all about your perspective.

Doesn't look worth the price tag, but it looks so very slick. And a fingerprint reader is cool too. Not a fan of the buttons though

 

[AdeFowler]

Fugly. Not sure how they justify $1600.

 

[waterskier2007]

sure, but if you look at it, how much better than an iphone can any phone be, and to pay 1600 dollars just because something has the name porsche on it. it is like the difference between clothes at old navy at a place like abercrombie. with porsche you are paying a lot for the name (and apple you still have the same situation but its less and u get the better functionality)

 

[DVNIEL]

Wow... $1600?

That better have some special features, like dialing 1 will not give you voicemail, rather call someone to give you a what-what

You read my mind...

 

[dpaanlka]

I'm sure all it has going for it is looks. I'm sure it's software is about as advanced as a normal phone.

 

[Troyte83]

are you kidding me?

 

[Genghis Khan]

all i can say is...why is it that expensive?

it makes the iPhone look like a bargain

Looks like something out of a bad 80s movie.

How do you know for sure?

t. if anyone spends 1600 bucks on a phone they are flat out retarded. s.

I disagree...if some company can offer a phone, with features that justify 1600 on a phone, and people have the cash, why not?


However this phone, or any phone on the market(that I know of) doesn't offer those features(to me)

Honestly, that phones is ugly.
