Nokia L’Amour 7088 - World’s first Fat-Ass Phone
Nokia have announced the Nokia L'Amour 7088, a low-specced designer phone in the company's L'Amour range. I say designer - whoever designed the L'Amour 7088 clearly has a love of shapely arses, as this phone has one fat ass! But then Nokia calls it "the pinnacle of mobile fashion design", so what do I know?!

From the press release:Inspired by the same indulgent palate of colors and textures that has defined Nokia's L'Amour Collection as the pinnacle of mobile fashion design, the Nokia 7088 makes its debut today, bringing a new level of sophistication to the CDMA market. The Nokia 7088 is not only the first CDMA model in the popular L'Amour Collection, but it is also the first to apply this collection's remarkable design language to a sliding configuration.
The Nokia 7088 makes a striking first impression, with attention drawn immediately to its jewel-like select key and carefully sculpted directional pad set into a metallic frame. Bold leather-inspired textures are found on front and back surfaces of the Nokia 7088, enhancing the tactile experience, and further accentuating the artful balance between technology and nature that is the hallmark of the L'Amour Collection's design ethos.
"The Nokia L'Amour Collection has been enthusiastically received by design minded individuals around the world. We are pleased to be able to bring this bold expression of style and taste to CDMA customers," said Larry Paulson, vice president and general manager of Nokia's CDMA business. "The Nokia 7088 is certain to attract instant attention with its beautiful form and generous set of features. Coupled with Nokia's hallmark quality and easy-to-use interface, we are sure that customers will have a great long-term relationship with it as well."
A dedicated key makes it easy to activate the integrated video recorder and camera with LED flash, allowing captured images and video clips to be enjoyed on the extra-large 128 × 160 pixel color display found on the Nokia 7088. A two-way speakerphone, voice recorder and calendar feature make the Nokia 7088 as productive as it is fashionable while the built-in mobile browser can be used to access information on the go.
The Nokia 7088 release date is scheduled for the 2nd quarter of 2007.
