Tech Companies Get in Touch With Their Inner Fashionista
2006-12-03
Diamonds on a cellphone are a girl's best friend.

Hence "bling kits" of adhesive crystals to adorn phones. And T-Mobile, which swiftly sold out of its $400 Juicy Couture bejeweled pink phones, now has a limited-edition cellphone line designed by Diane von Furstenberg.

Gucci bag? No, thank you. This year it's about the Dolce & Gabbana Motorola V3i, a $400 golden-colored phone so gilded and so thin it evokes a supermodel.

Companies are trying to get technology in touch with its inner fashionista, marketing to the fairer sex by tickling them with pink and smaller, lighter and easier-to-use devices that speak to a more feminine sensibility.

#2  When I first joined "M" I tried to get them to decorate their phones with silver and turquoise for a west motif and semi precious stones for other motifs. I was told I was a idiot for suggesting it. Now that I am long gone... they begin to approach it.
