When we first got word that Verizon would be announcing the Razzle today, a handful of potential posts popped into our brain almost instantly. Thing is, when it comes that easy for us, it came that easy for everyone else, too.
For instance, we could fall back on the fact that “Razzle” rhymes with “dazzle”, making some joke about how, with a 2.2″ screen and 1.3 megapixel camera, the only thing likely to “dazzle” anyone is the crazy twist-and-swivel design. From there, we could play on the idea that the manufacturer, PCD, is “really twisting it up” by having a QWERTY keyboard on one half of the rotating design, and music controls and stereo speakers on the other.
But you know, we won’t do that. And if we won’t write that, what’s left to write?
Not a whole lot. Look for it on the shelves for a cent shy of $70 some time in October.
This looks like a phone fro the late 90’s. And I sure hope that screen is not monchromatic. ;)
You could also comment that Dazzle was a low quality, readers wives porn mag on the UK in the 80′a/90’s!
Give ‘em the old razzle dazzle
Razzle Dazzle ‘em
Give ‘em an act with lots of flash in it
And the reaction will be passionate
Give ‘em the old hocus pocus
Bead and feather ‘em
How can they see with sequins in their eyes?
Didn’t anyone do a Google search before coming up with that name? I presume they’re not planning to launch in the UK, where the name is already used by a soft porn magazine:
