if they paided half then it looks like the numbersman earlier blog looks spot on.

shameful, industry selling itself out helped by a few over paided average cd's trying to keep their rep intake.

joke.

I just don't really get it... pretty, but is there an idea? Maybe it was the story half that Y&R didn't pay for?

Oh yes, very pretty. Don't know if I'd spend that kind of dosh for a phone that reflects light around its edges. Now if it could magnify light and cook ants under direct sunlight, THEN I'd be interested.

So why would I be interested in this phone again?? Oh sorry, the ad's not for the general consumers. Dude Catmur, looks like your standards are dropping, or did it slip through when you were on the flight to Sydney to put out some fires over there??
