Alcatel returns with another special edition handset to mark England's attempts at the imminent Rugby World Cup.

The special England Rugby version of the One Touch 602 features a just 102 MHz processor and 240 x 302 screen resolution.

Keeping up the England rugby theme is a team emblem on the back of the handset, along with special rugby themed wallpapers and a pair of ringtones including Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.

The 602 itself uses a 2.4 inch dislay, email, instant messaging, Opera Mini and a 2 megapixel camera. It also comes preloaded with Twitter and Facebook apps. Unfortunately there is no 3G or Wi-Fi connectivity so don't expect social networking to be massively speedy. The handset is currently listed at £39.99 on O2 stores.

This isn't the first time Alcatel has released something special on the mobile front to mark an event. The manufacturer recently graced the handset landscape with a less than £15 royal wedding phone.
