Well, all I can say is that it looks a hell of a lot better than the original 7900 Prism.
Another prism!

So Nokia continues its trend of long, narrow candy bar shaped phones complete with etched triangles in the 7900 Crystal Prism. What separates the Crystal Prisms from the Regular Prisms is the back cover, designed by (should I know this guy?) Frederique Daubal. Sorry, I'm not exactly tres chic when it comes to these famous designers, I only know Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger.

You also get a Sapphire Crystal center key, something Nokia implemented in the 8800 Sapphire Arte. And you get the change the LED colors underneath it. (up to 49 different colors in all!)
What sort of irks me about this phone is that Nokia barely improved the feature set. The camera's still 2 megapixels. The internal memory (no external on this guy) is still limited to 1 gigabyte. The display is still a 2 inch OLED. The Living Wallpapers are still residing in the phone somewhere. And on and on...
At least Nokia did see fit to drop in 3G support (850/2100 mhz bands). Unfortunately, that 3G won't last very long on the BL-6P 850 mAh battery. Talk time is already rated at up to 3 hours.
On the bright side, you do get a free bandana in the retail box.
