Right, here goes, today’s been a cool day for mobile news, so I’m on an utter blogging-fest today! (And no, I’m not just doing it to beat Chewie’s post count, or get more comments, thereby implying you love me more……..)
Intriguing news has come through to us from various sources, today. Acclaimed watch-maker TAG Heuer have announced they’re teaming up with French mobile-maker, Modelabs. TAG Heuer, it seems, are wanting to expand their product lineup out past watches, and into the arena of mobile phones.
When you think about it, it’s nothing new in the mobile industry. LG teamed up with Prada for the, um, LG Prada. The Samsung Armani is on its way (and yes, we’re going to look at that VERY soon!)
And now Modelabs and TAG Heuer team up, and we can expect to see the phone some time in 2008. But, what might it look like?
Well, these are TAG Heuer watches:
And these are examples of Modelabs work (phone on the left, mp3 players on the right):
Hmmm… It’s either going to look: a/ very slick or b/ mental. Or maybe both. Either way, it’s gonna rock.
Just one thing, if either Modelabs or TAG Heuer are reading: please god, in the name of all that’s holy, make it a phone on a wristwatch, like Dick Tracy had! I’ve wanted one of them since I was 7!
