Cameron Diaz Goes Monochromatic For SoftBank Mobile

Japanese cell phone manufacturer SoftBank sure knows how to pick 'em! First with Brad Pitt in his action-packed sexy commercials, and now with Cameron Diaz working it in various print ads (she's already been featured in a few fun and flirty SoftBank commercials as well).

This flashy new ad is gracing the pages of Life & Style this week, and although I can't make out what model of phone it is, SoftBank sure does grab my attention! Rumor has it that Diaz was paid a whopping three million dollars for only six hours of work last year, so I can only imagine what she got for this shoot.

Softbank Cell Phones Come In 20 Pantone Colors

Tired of monochrome cell phones that choose business over pleasure? If you live in Japan, you're in luck. Softbank has released a simple and sleek cell phone line (it looks like a slightly chunky RAZR) that showcases 20 of our favorite Pantone colors - from Pearl Pink, Mint Green, Beige, Gold to Metal Blue. The line is part of a popular "Tokyo Girls Collection," and seems to bank on the fact that most women like matchy-matchy outfits and bright colors. The Pantone revival seems to have started a few weeks ago with the release of Pantone mugs, so these phones are right on target.

The phone features Bluetooth, a 2-megapixel camera, "PC Site Browser," a button face featuring raised arc-ridge keys and a mobile ASV LCD for high-contrast images. The sub-display is capable of up to three lines of text, allowing quick confirmation of newly arrived email. No word on the costs, but for now US fans are out of luck anyway. And I could really use a dose of Vivid Pink.
