From Howard Forums:

"Are you there, Oscar nominees? Can you hear me?

Beyonce is hot..

This is true. They talked about this phone on the Today Show this morning. The guy said it was going to be packaged in the Oscar presenter's goody bags and that it will be available to the public in early March. Hopefully this is true!!!!
