ELLE’s GlamPhone by Alcatel
ELLE’s Glam Phone
It’s not fashion, until a fashion magazine says so.
ELLE is bringing the GlamPhone to American girls starting next month, after setting hearts a-flutter in Europe. Not only do you get to pick between a red or black version (although more colors are available in Europe), but you also get a one-year subscription to ELLE Magazine.
But is it worth it? Not unless you think touting a mirror-screen as a major feature is a good sign. And lets see, a VGA camera? No thanks. Unique carry strap? Not unless you think sashaying around with a cell phone around your neck suddenly became chic.
Other specs include: SMS, MMS messaging, internal antenna, 3MB memory, 6 hour talktime and is only available for GSM network subscribers such as T-Mobile or Cingular.
I’m not 100 percent sold on this model, especially with a scandalous pricetag of $180. I think the GlamPhone has the potential of attracting young gals, but only if they lower the price.
But what do I know. You tell me, do you like it?
