Default Black Diamond - The Windows Mobile Smartphone for the Super Wealthy

http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/07/22/black-diamond-wm5-smartphone-runs-300-000/

"Penned by Singaporean designer Jaren Goh, there's little question that the glossy black candybar is gorgeous -- but whether it's $300,000 gorgeous is another question entirely. Details are slim, but we know that the Windows Mobile 5 device should be rocking quadband GSM, WiFi, 128MB of memory with SD expansion, a 2-inch display, and a 400MHz XScale all wrapped up in titanium and diamonds. The touch sensitive keypad is Chocolate-esque, completely disappearing when not lit, while SIP is thrown in to keep your GSM usage minimum when you're in WiFi range"

8O I'm sorry, but this is just plain stupid. Production is limited to 5 units, and at $300,000 I can see why. I'm guessing it's hard to find more than 5 super rich suckers out there that would be willing to drop that much on a phone. I wonder how much it will fetch on eBay once it's been scratched a couple times? :roll:
