Specially made for the wife of a rapper, this $125,000 Motorola phone is covered with sapphires and 600 diamonds, as well as her initials.
TIFFANY STYLUS - A $70 sterling-silver stylus meant to work with any palmtop — though it may not fit into the palmtop’s slot.
VERTU CELLPHONE - A $15,650 model in 18-carat yellow gold (also sold in platinum, white gold and stainless steel) includes a year of concierge service for reservations and other needs.

This would get really sickening if a jewel encrusted nokia model turned up.
Talk about making a silk purse out of a sow's ear. |

@ Ausie Boy Blue
I have seen a NOkia 3310 case that was jewel encrusted, something stupid like £75000 it was on a program called how to blow a billion.
It was the little piggie that built his house from Nokia`s that the big bad wolf could`nt blow down!

And more
a Manhattan designer.
NY Noir has sparkled the cell phones belonging to such celebrities as Reese Witherspoon's character in Legally Blond 2, Sarah Jessica Parker's character on Sex and the City, and real-life cell phone user Star Jones of the talk show The View.
Customizing your cell phone costs $220 for the whole phone and $110 for just the front. Noir requires customers to leave their phones for three weeks while its designers place each individual crystal on the phone by hand.
As thousands submit their phones to be crystallized, separation anxiety and expense don't seem to be deterring this desperate-to-shine market.

well I must say thats really bad.i would never get a phone like that.Vertu is true class and using it makes a big difference in feel and sound.Its like saying let me take my regular tv and shove it in the wall in a way that it only looks like a plasma flat screen but will never give the feature and clarity and class of a plasma.Get my point.So no matter how many carats of diamonds you stick on you phone it still will not have the class and features,feel and sound of a vertu.
