And if it's funny that Verizon is using a Prada-designed phone, it's even funnier that the iPhone is a ripoff of that very Prada-designed phone.

Run that spin a little harder, Trevor.
Spin? Nevermind of course that much of the iPhone's UI has been in OS X and iPods for years now. Next you're going to tell me that OS X ripped off one of Prada's handbag designs.

I've seen that phone demoed and it doesn't come close to the iPhone's UI. It's not even a poor man's iPhone. As for spin, it seems that Prada and LG need to do a better job. There's tens of thousands of news stories about the iPhone and I've never seen one about the Prada phone. I'd be willing to bet that more iPhones were sold in the first few weeks than there will be of that phone in 6 months of sales.
