Christian Dior Launches Line of $5,500 to $7,900 Cell Phones

Christian Dior has launched a line of cell phones priced from $5,500 to $7,900.  Now, who would pay that type of money for a "bling" cell phone?

The French company, known for its high end fashion brand teamed up with ModeLabs to design and manufacture the regular handset and miniature phone barely larger than a USB key.

The Dior phone offers all the typical features such as a camera, text messaging, touch screen, camera and rings tones. However, the phones come with a new unique feature which is a miniature version of the phone which clips on the outside of a bag for easier accessibility. The tiny phone, named “My Dior,” communicates with the regular handset. The idea is to make answering phone calls simple and hassle-free for women.

Survey by Mobixell Shows Potential for Ad-Sponsored Rich Media Services

Mobixell Networks, provider of mobile multimedia and advertising solutions, announced a new UK survey.  The survey, taken by 832 mobile phone users, reveals a sizeable opportunity exists among the 16-34 year-old demographic to offer ad-funded mobile content via rich media services like multimedia messaging or mobile video services.

The findings reveal that 35% of 16-35 year-olds would use more MMS and 29% would use more video services if they were offered free or discounted in return for receiving mobile adverts.

The survey, which was conducted by independent research company Gfk NOP on behalf of Mobixell, revealed that user's interest and receptiveness in accepting mobile adverts extends beyond the traditional realm of SMS text messaging - as exemplified by services like Blyk - into rich media services such as video clips, photo-messaging and Mobile TV.
