Vertu Constellation To Be Launched

by Engadget staff posted Jul 3rd 2006 at 5:57AM

According to, of all sources, a video on Google Video, the next Vertu line will be dubbed the Constellation; we understand it will feature quad-band EDGE (finally!), Bluetooth, and significantly higher resolution and larger screen. This new model should launch in the September time period; stay tuned as we expect further details to start trickling in shortly.

I'm sure Warren Buffet and the Sultan of Brunei look forward to these further deets.

Oddly enough Warren Buffet doesn't really go for the bling. The man drives a 2001 Lincoln Town Car, even though he has 44 billion (of course he is giving 40 billion of that away to charity, leaving him with a mere 4 billion to subsist on).

Usually the folks that go for the massive bling are mere hundred-thousand-aires (or worth only a few millions). Warren Buffet doesn't have to show off, he's Warren Buffet, biatch!

I'm pretty disappointed. I bought the Signature and Ascent, but this one is a bit ugly. I think I will probably have to pass....

Last month I was in NY and when i was visiting barney's they showed me the new catalog and the new vertu was already in it.They didn't know when he was available.It looked nice.Same colour as the ascent and it has a joystick-button.

Holy Crap. Buffett drives a Lincoln? That's not "modest" or "thrifty"... that just plain tacky. I guess it figures that Ballmer drives one, too. They could at least treat themselves to a basic Jaguar... jeez.

And what if they threw in s60 to boot? Wouldn't that just be incredible? The screen looks tall enough. . .

Apart from being quad band I reckon the phone is based on the Nokia 6230i
