It’s not quite surprising that many companies are using the upcoming FIFA World Cup event to attrack more soccer fans to buy their product. They made a soccer-related, or to be exact, a world cup-related, products, hoping that those people would buy the product, only because they come with their favourite team’s color, FIFA logo, etc. A blatant example is the Dynabook TX laptop from Toshiba that comes with embedded FIFA World Cup trophy images on its cases.

Another company that try to steal soccer fans’ attention is Sagem. This mobile phone maker recently presented the World Cup Limited Edition of myC2-3 cell phone. This mobile handsets, only available in England, comes with a St Georges Cross drawn on its body. Looks pretty cool.

However, it only looks pretty cool. On the inside, there’s nothing special on the phone. You’d only get the basic features, such as color LCD screen, WAP, polyphonic ringtones, dual-band network, and couple of games. This cell phone will only attract hard-core England soccer team I think.

Sagem’s myC2-3 cell phone is now available thorugh T-Mobile with PAYG tariff at Woolworths for £59.99. Remind you that this phone is a limited edition world cup edition, so it won’t available after that big soccer exhibition end.
