This handset is part of the Grand Line series of luxury phones made by Mobiado and it’s the first QWERTY phone under this brand. Mobiado 350PRL comes in white, black, pink and gold and it supports GSM/eGSM 850/900/1800/1900 connectivity, HSDPA and WiFi. There’s also a 2.36 inch display on board, GPS, a 3.2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth and USB.

The specs list is completed by a 2.5mm headset jack and we found out that the new Mobiado phone will retail for $2600, more than 8 times the value of a Nokia E71 unit.
