Why Are Phones From Other Countries So Chic?
I am constantly in awe of technology, specifically cell phones from Asia and Europe. Perhaps I've just grown up thinking of Asia and Europe as fashion epicenters and far more trendy than the US, or maybe I'm just jealous I can't get an 18-Carat Gold Nokia 8800 Sirocco phone, which is available only in Europe, or a LG Candybar Shine, which is only available in Russia. It seems my desire for unattainable cell phones is pretty common.
18-Carat Gold Nokia 8800 Sirocco
Nokia has unveiled the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold phone and let's just say it's the perfect match to the dashing Vertu Ferrari 1947 cellphone.
Encased in an 18-carat gold plating, the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold has the look of a luxurious Faberge egg that's been melted onto a sleek slider phone. It's available in select markets - as in not in the US - with an estimated retail price of EUR $1,000 (or $1,351.80 USD).
LG Shows Off 'Candybar' Shine Phone
LG has introduced a 'candybar incarnation' of its Shine slider phone, reports Reg Hardware and like the glamorous ISSE Monaco Phones from Nokia, it will only be available in Russia for a while.
It's unclear when the Shine Bar - as the non-slider is known - will make it to the rest of Europe and beyond, says Reg Hardware.
Expect it to pack in a 262,144-color, 240 x 320 display; a two megapixel camera with auto-focus; Bluetooth; 50MB of user-accessible memory; and a Micro SD slot for up to 2GB of add-in storage space.

I was lucky enough to meet Robert, Kristen and Taylor when they visited London, and Rob looked gorgeous in a white shirt and suit, which he later wore to the UK fan event. I've already brought you Rob and Kristen's response to questions about their relationship, as well as the pair's revelations about their kissing scenes, and now I've got the lowdown on Rob's future music plans, what he thinks about immortality versus ageing, and the differences between working on Harry Potter and Twilight:
- On whether he's concerned Twilight will overshadow his music: "I want to do gigs again, and I guess the only way to do gigs is you have to get an album to silence everyone and then you can play as many gigs as you want.

Katy Perry isn't the only celebrity hopping on the sparkly, encrusted nail bandwagon.
