Good news for Nokia mobile phones fans. The company is launching a concept phone that was brainstormed by a popular Austrian designer, Tobias Hornof.

The eccentric designer is also known for designing other concept phones like Vertu Nautilus or Nokia 8830 Clamsehell. Apart from the remarkable mobile phones, the 22-year old designer also creates shoes, fashion items and other handy stuff, as he is specializing in Industrial Design, fashion apparel and packaging.


Nokia 8900 keeps the same luxury profile as the 8800 Sirocco edition, and probably the same starting price, needless to say that "Sirocco" could cost up to an incredible $28 000, if customized.

The new series should concern all the design fans as it has a smooth minimalist designed package look.

The dream mobile device has crystal glass OLED display. Nokia's 8900 should also include microSD card slot for memory expansion that allows more storage space. The handset has an incorporated 3-megapixel camera for remarkable photos.

The mobile device also has an MP3 player and comes with support for a Stereo-Bluetooth-headset. From the pictures, the mobile phone looks thinner, and let's hope the designer is going to hold on the idea during the production process.

The concept phone is said to be already in works, and the company decided to keep the same comprehensible features that combine really elegantly.

All in all, this should be more than a pretty face. Let's just hope the brainy Chinese won't clone it too soon, so we can enjoy it without "improvements".
