    Is this a new phone from Samsung?

    Turn the image upside down, and it resembles the Serenata a little in its construction!  I wonder if the Serenata will have the pop-up LCD screen?

    Re: Interesting Phone

    Looks like an interesting concept, except I don't expect B&O would let it look like a oversized tamagotchi!

    LOL Laughing Yes, it sure doesn't look as good as some of Samsung's other recent cell phones.

    I don't understand why someone would want the display of their cell phone to rotate. Maybe to watch videos / movies in widescreen, but I don't think we're quite there yet with cell phones.

    Hopefully the Serenata won't be suprising us with any similarity to this Samsung when we see the first images!

    I real hope this is NOT the new Serenata! I agree with Alex, surely B&O wouldn't dare release something that looks like that! Great to see you back again Alex. Hope all is well.

    Re: Interesting Phone

    no way this could be the new serenata. I have already seen this phone in flesh, it is a regular samsung cell phone, nothing more.

    Re: Interesting Phone

    Samsung is making a phone-only phone marketed as the Jitterbug (complete with dial tone!) I can't help but notice a similarity between the shape of the Jitterbug and the shape of the design drawing representing Serenata.

    There's an interesting commentary on salon.com about the Jitterbug, especially the relatively novel nature of a mobile phone only being used to make and receive telephone calls. Is the feature-limited Serene the start of a new wave of phone-only phones?

    What on Earth is going on with all these crappy rebranded cell phones?! That Porsche phone is a Sagem, AKA material especially suited for the bin! I don't understand why people buy these rebranded phones because they're supposedly by D&G, Prada and now even Porsche! At this rate, Lee will soon be signing a deal with Motorola or some other rubbish cell phone brand to release the new and spectacular BeoWorld phone!

    Are you that pretentious that you need to have a fashionable and cool brand advertised across the front of your phone (probably right ontop of the screen, but you're too cool to care)? Vulgar at the same time in my opinion, not to mention an idiot for buying a Sagem!

    Haha! That just made my day, but if you want the real honest answer, it's not for the Chanel logo, but for the curved lines instead on a completely opposite colour. That probably sounds a load of BS, but it's true.

    I have to agree with Peter though, I'm set on the iPhone for now. Smile
