Put an Armani In Your Armani
It appears that Armani and Samsung are to introduce a new mobile phone in Europe in October.

A Prada executive said they had also been approached about doing Prada-branded electronics like TVs. But Prada said "nada" because without a furniture line it made little sense.
Armani has Armani Casa, of course, so the joint venture makes more sense for him.
