FS: NIB Prada phone by LG

The sexiest and most luxurious touch screen cell phone around (only other one is Apple's iPhone)

I have a brand new Prada phone by LG on hand. Although I charged it once, I never used it - Plastic covers still on the phone front and rear.

Phone details here - http://www.pradaphonebylg.com/ (enable pop-ups to get to it)

This is a tri-band unlocked GSM phone that I bought in Europe and works with ALL US carriers that have GSM (T-Moile, Cingular, etc.).

These are not available in the US (except through ebay and the likes). If you check ebay, you will see that the average selling price is around $700.

I am asking $700 shipped (from Europe).

Please PM with any questions

This phone looks nice. Too bad it doesn't have the 850mhz band or I'd pick it up.

Great looking phone. Does no 850mhz mean really bad reception in some areas of NA?

Yep...some of the NA GSM network was built as 1900 and some was 850, it all depends on what region you're in (and consequently who built the network.

if you're using tmobile you're good. Cingular in my area doesn't do a very good job without the 850mhz.

In the majority of the US the network was built either by Voicestream (now T-mobile) or one of the companies that are now part of "The new AT&T". The Voicestream networks are 1900 MHz while the AT&T ones are 850 MHz. In some areas, these networks overlap (i.e. major cities where there are a lot of users and AT&T doesnt want to pay roaming fees to T-mobile for customers using their network) however outside of major cities, generally there is either one frequency or the other. 850 also works about twice as well inside buildings.

since this is sold i gues i can ask an off topic question: would the iphone work like a regular ipod with the same hook up or no? i am wondering cuz i used to use my ipod as a cd changer and if you could do that with the phone, that would be cool. and maybe possibly you can even do a hands free using the same hookups...
