Porsche is launching a phone in association with Sagem :

1600$ : who find that the iPhone is expensive ? :P

BTW, I know that Tag Heuer will also launch a phone soon and it will cost big money too :wink:

fingerprint sensor is cool. i think that will be on a lot of phones in the future

Personnaly I am not totally convinced by fingerprint sensor. I have them on my Samsung P310 and my wife's U600 and I often tap on them without wanting to ... but it can be cool too as it works quite well. So I don't know if it's cool or crap :|

I will wait to experience a totally figerprint screen on iPhone if I am crazy enough to buy one ...

The Porsche P9521 is so new we cannot find a lot of information on it at the moment, but obviously its by the Porsche Design Mobile Group, aimed at Porsche fans and anyone who wants to tell their friends I Own A Porsche.

so what they say is that its a phone for a right attention whores? :D :P

I don't think girls are going to think it's very cute when you keep telling them that you have a porsche all night and then call a cab on your porsche phone.

i remember being in the airport in frankfurt and seeing a phone for almost 10,000 euro...i think it was called vertu. pretty stoooopid if you ask me

Vertu made very expensive phones despite not being up-to-date in technology (they based on Nokia phones but with nothing more than bluetooth ... when they have it). They are, however, very resistant and made of expensive materials ...

I think they cannot use the latest technology just because all the latest models are sort of final tested at the customer and they have bugs. If you pay 10,000€ for a phone you expect them to be flawless and in that case, the latest technology is not the way to go.

If only major companies thought like you.

i don't imagine that phone to be very 'comfortable' to live with. the edges look rather charp and the materials will surely feel rather cold. not to mention it might be rather heavy?
