Porter x Monocle THREAK!

[mrmax]

"Monocle has teamed up with BlackBerry to produce 100 unique Bold 9700 handsets. We have created our own wallpapers for the screens and each device comes pre-loaded with Monocle’s 25/25 travel guides to the best business cities and resorts in the world. We have also created a special strap. They have 16GB cards and are also supplied with battery, charging pod, world charger, media player headset, USB and gift packaging." Its got wallpapers!!!

You've got to hand it to them to have the balls to try and pull this one off. This speaks volumes about the Monocle readership.

They should do a feature on reel to reel tape machines. It seems very Monocular.

Expansys has, however, already begun accepting advance orders for the Bold 9700, which it has priced at a VAT and postage inclusive price of £422 ($696/€465) SIM free.

What a ******* joke, a 125% markup for some wallpapers and a logo. I hereby boycott Monocle and all its ****** products from here on out.

Monocle-branded fountain pens and typewriters. You'd be like a pulsing neutron star of pretentiousness.

Word on the street is that The Rake is coming out with a The Rake x Kleenex collab for all you guys to wipe the drool or...

Any idea where you could get them around Hong Kong?

Considering The Rake is sold at 7-11's here, I expect you could buy it on every corner
