From the LG press release... "LG Electronics, a pioneer in consumer electronics and mobile phones, and PRADA, one of the world's leading brands in the luxury goods industry , unveil the first completely touch screen mobile phone. The PRADA Phone by LG introduces the world's first advanced touch interface which eliminates the conventional keypad making the overall usage experience a highly tactile one. An extra wide LCD screen maximizes visual impact, allowing the user to benefit from several key features of the phone, including the 2 megapixel camera featuring Schneider-Kreuznach lens, video player and document viewer capacity. Above all, these features contribute to the phone's beautifully sleek and simplistic appearance. Glowing icons on the face of the phone disappear when not in use to reveal a pure, un-adulterated black exterior. The phone is ultra thin (just 12 mm), nonetheless it hosts an array of additional multimedia functions, including an MP3 player and a music multitasking function for messaging. It also boasts an external memory slot, allowing the user to increase memory capacity for images, music and film clips." No word on pricing yet

That reminds me one of my favorite Seinfeld episodes

It doesn't say anything about internet connectivity. I wonder how much without the Prada logo attached. At that price I'd definitely get the iPhone instead.

Damn! I have to believe that that device/hand has been photoshopped into an existing photo that conveniently had a Prada display in the background. Can't believe that be so sloppy as to use a man's hand, though.

Will someone please make a decent phone for Verizon? Great network, crappy-ass user technology.

So phone manufacturers are not inclined to make something really special for that company.
