From Fashionista

Giorgio Armani already helped design a Vespa, and now he's getting his own cell.

Samsung will launch an Armani mobile this October in Europe and the States, with a sleek design true to Armani's brand vision.

The move comes after Prada paired with LG and Diane Von Furstenberg did a Sidekick, but the new gadget's real competition will probably be the iPhone, which has no fashion connection other than the fact that it's really cool.

Maybe more interesting?

An Armani Exchange phone already launched last October in parts of Asia, followed by a Calvin Klein phone later in the month.

Samsung Armani phone!

Looks similar to the LG Prada phone. This phone doesn't seem so appealing to me.

I found it's fairly easy and intuitive, and really fun to use the screen is very good, and it's great for watching shows when you have to catch public transport, the hard bit is getting it cracked for use with an Aussie carrier.

If you use EDGE(GPRS here) it is. You can store videos on it like you do on an iPod and if you can get onto an unlocked wireless you can use their Internet :D
