Looks snazzy. Think they are following in the line of handset makers offering designer handsets like the Motorola Dolce & Gabbana Razr, and the Nokia Vertu. Hopefully at a more modest price than their competitors.
The virtual keyboard is an interesting feature found more often on PDA's. Don't think they will sell many in North America though because it's a European style tri-band lacking the 800 Mhz band used commonly on this side of the Atlantic.

Yeah but I dont think its aimed at the North american market as the US seems hooked on the most part on cdma...(Ewwwwwww) rather than gsm tech!
