How to Get a Cell Phone For Free (be famous)

So what do the celebs, the A-List crowd, carry as a cell phone? The answer, according to an article from Forbes, is a Blackberry.

Of course, that hasn't stopped heavy-hitters such as Nokia and Motorola - even Palm - from hiring so-called "gifting companies" to host rooms at big events and drop some free phones into the pockets of stars.

Even though the ubiquitous Blackberry seems to be the rule rather than the exception in Hollywood, celebs have been spotted with the Nokia Sirocco Gold and Luna, Sidekick LX, Samsung Blackjack II, and those freakin' pink RAZRs.

Speaking of exceptions, the one in-phone that hasn't been spotted all that much is Apple's iPhone. My guess is that they've become sort of commonplace that they're starting to lose that coolness.

Either way, check out Forbes' article Celebs Make A Statement With Cellphones for the lowdown on phones in the hands of the rich and famous.

(And if this post sounds vaguely familiar, it's probably because of this. )

You'll probably have to wait a bit until your comment shows up, due to the legions of spammers that have set their sights on the Nokia Phone Blog.
