If you always wished you could own a gadget inspired by the design of Logan's Run or The Last Starfighter, you're in for a treat. Nokia's Prism cell phone has all the triangular geometric shapes you could possibly want in a phone, going so far as to make the keypad buttons all triangles, letting you imaging you're dialing up the Master Control Program in Tron every time you call someone.
Beyond making you nostalgic for sci-fi camp, the Prism comes in two varieties, the 7500 and the 7900, each a bit different in design. Both GSM phones include a 2-megapixel camera along with a music player (doing MP3/WMA/AAC, in case you were wondering). But the higher-end 7900 (shown above) includes such, uh, slants as quad-band GSM, 3G connectivity, and 1 GB of internal storage. They should be coming to Europe in the next month or so for $290 (7500) and $550. No word on a U.S. release.

How about a better pic (like http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/bto/20070808/nokiaprism_270x302.jpg)? It's okay. After the release of the iPhone, I'm wondering what the 7800 has that would outweigh me buying it over the iPhone?
