Girly Phones - Not Toys For the Boys!

Motorola PEBL U6

It's called the PEBL.. because it looks like a pebble on the outside. Open it up and there's a reasonably large colour screen and a flat keypad like the stylish RAZR.

Part of the appeal of the Motorola PEBL is how it feels in the hand.. a combination of smooth curves and quality materials make the PEBL a phone that you'll love to hold. But it's not just a pretty phone - the PEBL comes with Bluetooth so you can use it with a compatible headset, a digital camera capable of taking basic snapshots and short video clips, web browser and an email client, plus all the basics such as Java for downloadable games, polyphonic ringtones and multimedia messaging.

It's a quad band GSM phone which means that you can use it all over the world, including the US and other parts of North and South America, which is handy if you travel a lot. The battery life is good, with a maximum of six hours talk time.

In truth, it's not the world's most advanced phone in terms of features, but it is one of the best looking mobiles we've ever seen and it's lots of fun too.
