Advantages: Attractive looks

Disadvantages: Virtually none but expensive

The phone is superbly elegant and spells style. Not showy with its minimalist look, yet oozes style and good taste.

All phones should look good, and not just a candy bar. Of course, I think it will attract a host of detractors because of its price, it will price out many.

And these detractors will then complain of the low specs for the high specs. If you look at it objectively, it is truly an art piece. 8800 is like a Ferrari of phones (Vertu is like Rolls Royce, but how many like a Rolls' design?).

And its features are easily the top 10% quartile with superb sharp screen, EDGA, GPRS, high-level Bluetooth and phone of 0.5mb, which while lower than 2mb, actually more than serves its purpose. In fact, we really don't need a 2MB phone!!! (And heh, check the specs, its Bluetooth is different from many phone's "Bluetooth" that does not work well. A point many don't know.

All said, this evokes desirabilty. Like a Ferrari. Expensive, with many saying they don't need it for point A to point B, but highly desirable to all, but only limited to a few.
