It's available with an English QWERTY keyboard or an Arabic keyboard and retails on the Porsche Design Group's website for €1650, or about $2,234. The phone is also available in black with a lighter steel frame.

People who buy the phone will get a special PIN for their phone starting with 2AAXXXXX, which designates them a Porsche Design user.
