The cellphones market is all buzzing around lately. smartphones, PDAs, Berries, Chocolates and now iPhone and Prada phone - 2 big shots that are coming from some of the most powerfull brands in this world Apple (who never done phones before) and Prada (who actually did). Who is going to win? Or there is actually market for two $600-800 priced phones on this planet?... It's hard to predict considering the emotional appeal of the Apple brand on its fans. I wonder if someone compared amounts of sold Prada bags and ipods. That could serve as some prediction for the future of both brands. While I can't see the future yet - here is simple features comparison that might help you to decide which side you are at (considering you agreed to pay $600-800 for a phone)
Both phones are touch screen and both have GSM, PRADA's UI is Macromedia Flash-based and opts for a minimalist, white-on-black display as opposed to the more OS Xish GUI of iPhone. Prada has a removable battery and upgradable memory which iPhone doesn't have, and most importantly it's not limited to Cingular.
So will devil that wears PRADA kill devil that has APPLE?
