We all know that Russians have many new billionaires in recent years due to the oil boom, and here's a handset that might appeal to them due to its relative rarity - it has been reported that only 10 of these phones will be released via the Euroset mobile network. The Incrudo Phantom as it is known comes in a minimalist design that is fashioned with luxurious materials, where both the apparatus body and buttons are made out of high strength titanium alloy while the display uses sapphire glass that is virtually scratchproof. A blue sapphire acts as the OK button, and the other features of this rather brick-like handset are :-
GSM/GPRS network compatibility 240 x 320 resolution display at 16 million colors 3 megapixel camera 8GB internal memory
Don't think the well-heeled will find this to be as desirable as something cheaper and more common IMHO. I personally think it looks butt ugly - what about you?
I don't recall Engadget making an oath to always provide specs when talking about a phone/gadget/bla. After all, that's why the Via and the Read link are. Via and Read links which, by the way, give more info than your copy/paste.
Thanks that makes a lot more sense than the story above. There's loads of newly rich millionaires in Russia, and they only have to find 10 tasteless enough to buy this. I am betting they'll sell out in no time. The ability to stop bullets is valued in Russia as well.

I'would'nt be surprised if that thing only sold on Arab or Russian market: they don't care what they're buying, as long as the prive tag is hefty.
