Not that it wasn't
official already or anything, but nothing demonstrates dedication to a product like an exclusive home on the web. Yep, LG has just launched a standalone microsite for the altogether sexy Prada II, and while you already know about the specs -- HSDPA, WiFi, 5-megapixel camera, 3-inch 400 x 240 pixel capacitive multi-touch display and quad-band GSM connectivity -- you probably weren't aware of the matching Prada Link Bluetooth watch. As you'd expect, the timepiece syncs with your Prada II and shows your incoming calls / texts, and we'll go out on a limb and presume that it tells time, too. Sadly, the tidbits we're most interested in (a release date and pricing) aren't clearly available on the site, but we'll be refreshing like madmen hoping for that to change.

I wonder if they'll do a Windows Mobile version like that did with the original Prada (don't remember what they called the WM version). I'm just not a big fan of feature phones which I why I'm wondering.
does this phone work on american networks?
This is no iPhone knockoff! I think the Prada Watch is a cool addition.
F*CK off advertising your site dickweed.
I thought iPhone was for fun?
Wow, even replies work as advertised here...
That above was meant for Ocean "clak" 20th.
Btw: Now that I actually looked at his name I regret even reading on...
You realize you *cant* reply to him. Must have been blocked by engadget.....
So any phone with multi-touch is a iPhone knockoff? Interesting.
Just kidding -- tedious.
Hmm... apparently Clak's comment is un-reply-able
(oh yeah, be jealous of that double hyphenation)
Yeah! Same happened here!
He's THE ONE! err... TEH FIRST!
If everyone low ranks him do you think his post will eventually fade out completely and disappear?
hopefully if everyone low ranks him, he will just fade out and completely disappear.
This is smexy.
Who are you? The Devil?
har har.
You're right. And since the iPhone knocked off the original Prada no-one should have bought it either!
Douchebag.
Fuck. That was to iEye.
Or even clak/ocean/whoever.
Ah fuck it. Time for bed.
see above.
Seriously, Android would pull them so much more attention and sales...
Android and Prada?
Lady and the Tramp 2?
They already made a LATT2?
Disney you whore
I would feel rather fruity wearing this...
SE has a similar watch series.
Oh, my! It's the new PraD.O.A. phone!
If it is ripping off anything it is the SE Xperia.
The touch screen better work better than the 1st gen- it was completely hopeless in my experience. And slow. And smudgy. And plasticy. With a poorly thought out OS.
So lets hope for a few improvements then...
"The new Prada mobile will be available with a starting price of 600 Euros though major mobile dealerships in Italy, UK, France, Germany, Spain and Netherlands in the 4Q of 2008."

You know, i like the blue tooth watch idea. You could keep your phone on slient, great for work, meetings, movies etc and still not look like a tool when someone calls
This is the most disorganized commenting i've seen yet hahaha
oh and btw... this was also to Ocean "clak"!
j/k
Why is it making Bluetooth watch? Does it want to break Bluetooth's spirit?
Weird, I read the title twice and thought it said "making" instead of "matching" both times. Must've been the Internet gremlins.
1980 just called, they want their watch back.
Oh, 1980 just called back they want their joke back.
That's kind of hot. To bad I doubt it'll never make it to Verizon without being neutered.
Can you yell into the watch Big O activate and a big ass robot come out of the ocean?
If not, I'll pass. :3
Oh, and Clak really needs to stop having sex with his Steve Jobs blowup doll.
Will it be an unlocked phone? I think that I'll cry if I can't own it. I was holding out for the G1 to come to Canada but I've fallen in love with this gorgeous phone
In other news, Apple to unveil bluetooth watch at next keynote.
Wow, return of the Texas Instruments LED watch...
If I'm not mistaken wasn't the first Prada out before the iPhone. My wife loves her Prada 1 and wants this new one. I think its not a bad phone, not my cup of tea but woman seem to love it. Improvements I hope they make, faster processor witch should fix the sluggish screen response, better browser,wifi, more ram.
I don't know whether to smirk or Awww...
I was under the impression the Prada was out almost half a year before the iPhone...
Sigh, this was supposed to be aimed at clak, at the top. :-/
I don't know whether to smirk or Awww...
Yeah, because the people who jock Prada clothes are really going to want to buy that ugly ass watch. I get it now...
I think People behind this phone are not very intelligent, because they did not include GPS, FM features in this . With the price tag of 600Euros, Intelligent people will not buy this phone. What a failure of design
