Nokia's Cell Phone Avatars, submitted by mjq jazz bar. If you thought my illustrations for the Blade article were bad wait until you see these animations from Nokia.

Things only get worse when you see what a monster looks like in the minds of Nokia.

This sort of crap would be completely unremarkable on some shitty Geocities website. This is one of the biggest telephone manufacturers in the world.
