attitude optional, image a must. Nokia

Explanation:
Check this out:
Nokia Medallion I RX-3
Your images just got a lot more personal. This tiny color display hangs on a choker-style necklace, forming a dramatic backdrop for
accessorizing your look. Attitude optional, image a must.
http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,8764,48650,00.html

The Medallion I communicates with compatible devices via infrared. This means you can transfer images directly from the Nokia 3200, Nokia 3650, Nokia 6220, Nokia 6600, Nokia 6650, Nokia 7600, and Nokia 7650 phones, and the Nokia 9210 and Nokia 9210i Communicators
The 4096-colour screen shows your personalised image, of which 8 can be stored at one time. Alternately, a single touch will bring up a time-piece. Controls on the Medallion are used to browse and delete the images stored on the unit.

The word "image" might have dual meaning here..... Sorry, but I'm not good in creating catchy slogans in Chinese. Let's see what the others come up with.............

Nokia 6230 Medallion I RX-3 advertisement text: Your images just got a lot more personal. This tiny color display hangs on a choker-style necklace, forming a dramatic backdrop for accessorizing your look. Attitude optional, image a must.

This remind me of Bertolt Brecht\'s famous \"Geschichten vom Herrn Keuner (Mr. Keuner\'s Stories)\" in which there is a story with the title \"Weise am Weisen ist die Haltung (Wisdom of the Wise Lies in the Attitude).\" Nowadays, it doesn\'t matter much what an attitude a person exhibits, but image is a must! That is why I put the slogan ironically as \"态度无妨、形象第一.\"
