Coming to the market soon are the new Nokia 8800 Arte phones but they aren't for those with thin wallets. Retailing at $1,465 and $1684 respectively, the Nokia 8800 Arte and Sapphire Arte are the most recent look for glamorous cell phones. With a 2-inch display, 3.2 megapixel camera and 1 GB of memory, this fancy device even sports an anti-fingerprint coating to keep it looking sharp. Complete with a leather pouch and noise-canceling bluetooth, its the perfect holiday gift for the chatty-Cathy on your list.

The latest in blinged out cellphones is the Diamond Nokia N95, and there's no argument that it's 'doing the bling thing' in a big way. Coming from Alexander Amosu, the phone is a combination of 18k solid gold and 3.30 carats of high-quality diamonds. Available in a limited edition of only 10, each phone is custom set with 325 diamonds and the owner's choice of white gold or classic gold (white gold for me all the way), and of course each will be numbered from 1-10. Name or initials also available, $24,482.

Fashion designer Giambattista Valli teamed up with Nokia to create a new, limited edition phone that was just as much of a fashion accessory as it was a technological tool. The Nokia 7373 Special Edition was the result. The phone is available in two colors, Powder Pink and Black Chrome. The pink phone has a pearl necklace in place of the standard strap and has gold-tone heart and skull charms. The black phone has a high-gloss finish and has a matching black strap with a chromed skull charm. Each comes in a coordinating carrying case.

The phones will be released in Europe in March, with an estimated price of 280 euros ($368).

Partnering with Lamborghini, Nokia has just designed a limited edition Nokia 8800 Sirocco phone that is ideal for the Lamborghini owner who wants to match his car to his mobile. The stainless steel phone casing is etched with the Lamborghini logo and the words "Automobil Lamborghini." To further the theme, it also includes Lamborghini wallpaper graphics, engine-inspired and a short video documentary about the cars. The tri-band GSM phone has a screen of scratch-resistant sapphire coated glass, a 2-megapixel camera and 128mb internal memory, as well as an mp3 player, xHTML browser, email, Bluetooth connectivity and a hands-free speaker. Only 500 will be produced and they will be exclusively available at selected Lamborghini dealerships.

The Nokia 93 is an intriguing device. A bit more than a phone, Nokia bills it as a multimedia computer. It creates MPEG4 quality video that can be viewed on the high-def 2.4" display. It also serves as a video player, has a 3.2 megapixel camera and Bluetooth v.2.0. The Nokia N93 sells for $699.99. Nokia has created a studio website for those with the Nseries devices who want to share video. The only downfall to the phone seems to be that fact that for a phone it is pretty huge, especially for those who are addicted to the ultraslim Razr.

The Nokia N72 is an addition to the Nokia Nseries line of phones and is designed to provide a multimedia experience, as well as facilitate communication. It has a 2-megapixel camera and integrated digital music player, with dedicated capture and music player keys, an integrated browser, FM radio and support for Visual Radio. A rep from Nokia said that "with this device people will feel like they can express their extrovert nature."

All technical capabilities aside, this phone is gorgeous. It is available in a pink pearl finish, as well as high-gloss black, and has "digital textures" on the back, which are customizable graphic designs that allow you to "make the phone your own."

The phone comes with a matching headset and wrist strap and is currently being released in "key markets," which seems to include everywhere except western Europe and the Americas.

It looks like the gorgeous Nokia L'Amour phones are now available in the US. All three versions are on sale at the Neiman Marcus website. Sure, they sell them at the Nokia website, too, but wouldn't you rather pick out something to coordinate with your new phone? They're called fashion phones for a reason, after all.

There are two models, the ultra-slim 7380 ($650) is mostly camera and a little bit of phone. The 7370 model ($400) comes in both warm and cool color palates, so you can select which one will best match your existing wardrobe. The "warm" phone is a golden amber color with white floral etching, while the "cool" phone is a chocolate brown with grey and tan accents.
