Nokia's 8800 back in black

by Thomas Ricker, posted Apr 20th 2006 at 2:22PM

You know, we have to hand it to Nokia for keeping their luxury 8800 handset worthy since its launch over a year ago. Already available in original stainless steel, a limited Aston Martin Edition, with over-the-top gold plating, and even as a candybar-style knockoff -- she's now resurrected herself in Black stainless steel. And that £799/$1429 price tag makes this the most expensive version yet. You go old girl, you go.

it was actually already available in black since december's launch of the first Nokia Flagship Store (Tverskaya), in moscow.

probably now it's worldwide.

I don't know about anyone else but I think most Nokia's phones are awesome. I would compare them to buying a long enduring and long lasting car like Honda!
