Orange France gets exclusive on Levi's 3G slider

Not just jeans friends, ModeLabs Group's Levi's handset is also all about the 3G experience, at least for Orange France users. This clunky slider features triple-band GSM, 2100MHz UMTS, 2 megapixel cam, Bluetooth, FM radio, and a microSD slot to extend the storage for your digital media. Orange is even offering to fill your memory card slot with a 1GB card and give you somewhere to put it with a Jean pocket-shaped case if you get there soon enough. We saw Levi's first branded set some time ago and it's encouraging to see them stepping up with faster data services -- well at least UMTS. Who knows, we may one day see some on this side of the world.

This looks incredibly similar and has the same spec as an own brand handset already in Orange's lineup - the 'Orange Berlin'.

As dumb as I think the concept is, I get that some people want to have a Prada or Armani name etched on their phone, but since when is LEVIS a name someone shows off? "OMG, YOU'RE RICH ENOUGH TO AFFORD LEVIS?!" "I know exactly what you mean! I won't wear ANYTHING without a Levis label on it!" Am I missing something here?

Just so you know, if you buy genuine designer Levi's they can get fairly expensive, up in the multiple $100's for 1 pair of blue jeans.
