Darkie Armo Girl, Karine Bedrossian’s electrifying one-woman show, commands attention from the moment it begins.

After using it for a week I think the iPhone has an average phone, average camera, but an amazing browser and is afterall an iPod mp3 player... It could be the begining of a blurred but beautiful friendship...
