So, if you haven’t guessed, it’s black. Plus it has rounded corners and a smoked-glass sliding cover to protect the keypad. Inside is a two-megapixel camera that’s also capable of shooting video, 128MB of internal memory, an FM radio, and stereo Bluetooth.

It plays MP3 music, and is quad-band so you can show off that smoked-glass around the world, you globetrotting fashionista you. As I said, Carphone Warehouse has the exclusive here in the UK, and is offering the 8600 for free, if you sign up to an 18-month O2 contract for £50 a month (although that does include 1,200 voice minutes and 500 texts a month).
