    It touches buttons on a purely silly level like the surfacing and lovely slimness. Wonderful.

    I want one. In red. Now.

    Stupid stupid article.

    I actually prefer the old look: less blingy, but a nice tecno look.

    Lets hope they improved the camera quality a lot..

    I wonder

    How many of those slim thingys will be broken in two by being put in a rear pocket and sat upon a few minutes later ?

    I wonder if it'll be available..

    ...in a 3D Burberry finish. NEC needs to tap into the chav market if they want to compete in the UK!
