Ah, Elite Modeling, one-time home to
such high-end faces as Tyra Banks, Claudia Schiffer, Gisele Bündchen, Cindy Crawford, and Engadget Mobile's
all-time
favorite
Blackberry
warrior,
Naomi
Campbell. Well, guess who made a phone for the Dutch. That's right, the Elite Modeling eML1 Elitephone doesn't only
carry a killer byline ("A mobile for models by Elite Model Look!" -- no comment), it also features a
"mini and sexy clamshell" (we can't tell if they mean the phone or its case), 6 Elite model wallpapers to
remind you of your own bodily imperfections, VGA camera, 160 x 128 internal display, and GPRS data. But oh, the irony
of such a modeling agency not only producing a cellphone -- which is just a crappy Korean device that's been knocking
around for a coupla years (a Newgen, if we're not mistaken) -- but making that phone one of the chubbier, rounder
devices on the market. In fact, if anything we would have expected Elite to badge the RAZR or one of the countless
brand-name
fashionphones, and let the chubby, homely
handheld be the 1337phone instead.

No.
Just, no.
These are too small.
come on, they aint bad as a emergency handset which you could use as a keyring, id buy one just to mod it in a diff casing, would be fun
Elle should have hired Nokia. If I wanted an ultra-chic phone with an underwhelming set of features, I'd get a Nokia 7380.
