Are you the type of person who cares more about brand name than functionality? Me too. Kidding! Well, now that Armani is joining the ranks of other uber-designers releasing cell phones (Prada, for example) there is yet another sophisticated smartphone to pine after.
Only this one is special! This touch screen phone features a special rape alarm. It's too bad we have to even think about things like that, but it's great to have the option out there. Here's how it works: you, the user, program 5 of your closests contacts in a special emergency contact list. When in need of assistance, simply press the volume key four times and the phone will automatically send alert texts to those 5 special contacts, who can in turn, try to contact you, or if need be, the police. It also activates a built-in GPS tracking system that locates your exact whereabouts.
OK, it's a smart idea, but if that were my phone, I have a feeling I'd be accidentally pressing the volume key quite a bit. Say you're in a crowded place, for example, or you have too much crap in your purse. No harm really, except that those 5 people will get an unnecessary text. Better safe than sorry!

P.S. Here are the specs, in case you're interested: Tri-band 900/1800/1900 GSM, 3 megapixel camera, 2.6-inch 262K color QVGA touchscreen LCD, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP support, microSD expansion, full Internet browser, and support for H.263, AAC/MP3/WMA audio and MPEG-4 video.
