Alcatel Make Fashion Cellphone Faux-Pas

I'd love to be able to dismiss Alcatel's fashion-phone fumble with ELLE magazine, the No.3 GlamPhone, as a dismal failure in waiting, but I've a horrible feeling that the same people who think a V3i is a suitable gift for your mother simply because it's purple will be drawn to the sub-spec'd lump of crud mistakenly thinking it's "cool".

We're obviously meant to look beyond the 1.3-megapixel camera and – Wow! – MP3 player, and instead marvel at the different colours.  Which would you pick?  You've got until June to decide, thank goodness.  A decision so weighty shouldn't be rushed.
