Alcatel shows off Playboy phone at CTIA Las Vegas 2008
CTIA Las Vegas 2008 is slow, at least from a hardware/handset perspective. There haven't been many new announcements and even less new hardware on display. Still, some of CTIA's exhibitors really know how to entertain. Take Alcatel, for example. The Alcatel booth wasn't the biggest or glitziest booth on the show floor. Not by a long shot. They didn't have amazing hardware. They did have, however, was their Alcatel Playboy phone and a bunch of hotties prancing around the booth. Unfortunately, it seemed as though I missed the runway show. The Alcatel Playboy phone is a Playboy-branded Alcatel OT-V770A mobile phone for the discerning bunny-lover in all of us. It comes in your choice of Gold, Pink, or Silver metallic trim, and plays up its Playboy affiliation to the brim. The Playboy phone sports the same 1.3 megapixel camera, media player, full-screen video playback, 10MB onboard memory, and microSD card slot as the Alcatel OT-VV770A, with the addition of that Playboy logo and embossed metallic rear-panel. It's not high in features, but at 10mm thin, it's got gobs of style. The Alcatel Playboy phone was only one of 15 handsets that Alcatel announced today. The new lineup ranges from sporty and rugged to stylish and refined - but Playboy got the lion's share of the attention. Go figure. 1 2 ► --- Related Articles at IntoMobile:
