The Most Expensive iPhone: Curious Case of King’s Button
By Partho, Gaea News NetworkSaturday, February 28, 2009
Apple dropped the iPhone prices to carrier-subsidized $199. Still they wanted it at $ 99. I ask them why not free. Even the scots would have no issues against Steve Jobs. Well, Apple isn’t making any such dumb move. Instead, it’s hitting the recession fleeced pockets with the most expensive mobile phone - iPhone 3G Kings Button. It’s priced at a whooping 2.5 Million Dollars! Well, it takes the jazzy’s to score big, may be the style divas say Beyonce (Knowles) might get it for a jewelery. Let’s see what bacon-wrapped scallop of the mobile world has on offer for $2.5 million.
The iPhone 3G Kings Button wears a design by Austrian jeweller, Peter Aloisson. Embellished with 160 diamonds and a huge 6.6-carat diamond you have something to guess about the cost. For more it’s clad in 18-carat yellow, white and rose gold. Rest of it I’ll leave it to your guess anticipating you know what’s a King’s attire.
That’s all about next-gen mobiles, don’t complain about features, its more about luxury.
