Sometimes the easiest and simplest ideas are the best. Orange France now teamed up with Bic, best known for their lighters and pens, to create the first "Ready-to-Call" cellphone. And for the first time the name actually makes sense and holds true. 
Not only do you get a phone and 60 minutes of talk time included in the 49 Euro package (about 62 USD), but the phone comes pre-charged, which means that you can actually start calling right after purchase. It’s the perfect phone for tourists or when you simply run out of battery. 
We also find it brilliant that Orange teamed up with Bic. Because what does Bic stand for at the end of the day? Cheap, decent quality and distributed EVERYWHERE. If they used the Bic distribution for the phone, this can be a huge success.
Also the design looks decent. We can even see the Bic phone becoming a cool accessory to have. Now it just needs to be more widely available, hopefully also outside France, and it will be a hit.
The Bic Phone is now available in the Colette online store.

We continue our preview of the Adidas January 2008 Consortium collection. Next in line is the Gazelle, which comes in two popping colorways. We already showed you these over the weekend, but since we have nicer and more detailed pics today, we give show them again.

The green colorway comes with purple accents. The upper is made of premium leather with a snakeskin structure, but a suede feel to it. Definitely interesting.

The orange colorway is really bright, reminding us of security orange, and has black accents. In terms of materials it is the same as the green colorway. Pics via Limiteditions.
Once again these will be available at Limited Edition this week during Bread & Butter Barcelona. Lots of detailed pictures after the jump.

As part of their Tech Pack, Nike will be releasing next year these sneakers under a Safari theme. The upper is covered in a nice heavy suede, and the respective green or orange safari bubble are a nice contrast to that. Definitely a two nice sneakers, that have not been “overdesigned”.

The Michael Lau x XLarge x Fingercroxx figure set that got released earlier this year, was one of the most exciting in terms of designer toys this year. Now Touch Magazine presents a new version of the set, that has been done in collaboration with Maharishi. Maharishi has already worked closely with Michael Lau in the past. This time they mainly worked on releasing the set in a new orange colorway and adding some Maharishi camouflage flavor to it.
There will also be a set of all black and all white versions of the toys, but we do not know yet for what these are or by who these are designed. We’ll keep you posted.
