Nokia and Aston Martin have decided to work together to develop the Aston Martin edition of the Nokia's high-end slider phone - 8800.
The stainless steel device will be manufactured in strictly limited numbers, features a discrete laser-etched 'Aston Martin' logo and comes together
with a unique charging station with the words 'Power, Beauty & Soul" etched on it, in a packaging bearing the Aston Martin wings. The Nokia 8800 is a tri-band mobile phone, offering a full color 208 x 208 pixel display, complete with SVGA camera that offers both image and movie functions. Moreover, the Nokia 8800 provides a digital music player (that supports both AAC and MP3 formats) with 64MB of internal memory. Other features includes Bluetooth connectivity, GPRS and
EDGE technology compatibility.
In addition to the
Nokia 8800's standard ring tones, which were created for the phone by award-winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, the Nokia 8800 Aston Martin Edition comes loaded with a selection of exclusive Aston Martin content, including ring tones that sample the evocative sound of the Vantage's (380 horsepower) V8 engine.
Nokia 8800 Aston Martin Edition is available for a price of about $1400.
