Aloisson million-dollar mobile phone
Over at CNN.com there's an article about luxury mobile phones like
the Vertu line we're so familiar with here, but they also mention Peter
Aloisson, an Austrian craftsman who pimps about three phones per year with gold, platinum, and jewels at a cost of mroe
than $30,000 each. Now he's working with a special order for a "German manufacturer" (Ryan over at Engadget has
a pretty good guess who the mystery company is) on a phone
with solid gold parts and "an exterior covered with 2,590 natural blue diamonds, some of the rarest jewels on Earth."
The price tag on the promotional phone will be over $1 million.
