By all accounts,
Nokia's designers are either on a cutting edge so far into the future and so deeply advanced that we can't understand it, or they've all gone off their medication. The bizarre
7500 Prism (which may or may not be the
similarly styled 7900) made its debut at a Nokia fashion event in China today, along with the
8600, 8800 Sirocco,
6110 navigator,
5700 XpressMusic, 6500 classic, 6500 slider and the
3500 -- though none of them were as totally zany looking as the Prism. The phone's specs are at least fairly normal, featuring a 2 megapixel camera, microSD slot, a QVGA screen and rocking the
S40 (version 5) OS. It's unclear at this point why the company believes people will want a diamond shaped keyboard, but since the FCC has already approved this model, we'll soon learn if they really do.
