Amosu Diamond Encrusted iPhone

March 3, 2008 | Posted by Allison as Cell Phones at 11:00 am | Comments »

You were probably expecting this, weren’t you?  I’m just surprised that it took this long for us to see such an extravagant diamond encrusted iPhone, but here it is at long last.

Please allow your eyes to feast upon the Amosu Diamond Encrusted iPhone.   Priced to be daring at $40,000, this phone says pimpin’ all over it, or whatever the kids are saying these days.

According to the designer Amosu, “Each phone is handcrafted to perfection using skilled craftsmanship, all diamonds are recyclable, which means they can be removed from one handset and then recast onto another, meaning the customer’s investment continues to shine!”

I sure am glad that he specified what he meant by ‘recyclable’, I might have been at the local recycling center looking not for the aluminum cans area, but the diamond recycling area.  What a funny world that would be.

As part of an added benefit of this diamond iPhone, Amosu is offering a complimentary (after you pay the $40K) one-year membership to the International Concierge Service which provides its members access to the inaccessible, such as front row fashion show seats & the like.

So, how many are you getting?

Apple Execs Reveal iPhone Anxiety

June 4, 2007 | Posted by Allison as Cell Phones at 11:00 am | (3) Comments »

Well, the hype is there like it never has been before.  The Apple iPhone has many people itching for the highly-anticipated cell phone more than freedom itself. 

But will the expectations meet with disappointment?  According to an article from the New York Times, Apple execs are more than a little worried that the phone of the year will not live up to the hype.

“The anticipation, which is intense even by Jobsian standards, has led to some quiet, behind-the-scenes anxiety at Apple. Some Apple executives worry privately that expectations for the one-button phones may be too high and that first-generation buyers will end up disappointed.”

I’m guessing that they’re right to be a but anxious.  With such a high price tag, momental hype & the Apple name, you’re bound to run into some troubles…  But you’re still buying them for you & all your pals, aren’t you?

There are times in everyone’s lives when they must stop & ask themselves one question, ”Do I really want to pay for my child’s education or do I really want to get that Vertu Signature Cobra Cell Phone?”

Yep, we’ve all been there.  I, of course, chose the Cobra phone.  I mean, who really believes that free, public education is all that bad, right?!

Anyhoo, this fabulous phone in excess features encrusted precious gemstones, one pear-cut diamond, one round white diamond, two emeralds used as the Cobra’s eyes as well as no more than 439 rubies.  Wowzers, that’s one gem-encrusted cell phone.  And at $310,000, wasn’t it worth your child’s educational costs?

The Fujitsu F7031 is an incredibly sexy looking phone, is it not?  I mean great, clean lines & angles.  I love it.  And do you know why I love it times like 14?  Because it’s freeking waterproof, as you can see by the images.

Amazing, technology is.  Fujitsu spent three years making this slim waterproof phone which features a 2.2 inch LCD, 1.3 megapixel camera & a music player.  Available in both pink or black, I’ll take two of each.  I can certainly make use of these babies when it comes around to pool season.

Better late than never, eh?  Yep, the Apple iPhone is here.  What do you think of the body?  It’s sleek enough, right?

So, the most awaited phone of like the century is finally here, and she doesn’t disappoint.   At just 11.6 millimeters thick & featuring a 3.5-inch touchscreen display, this highly-anticipated phone frankly kicks ass.

With your Apple iPhone you will also enjoy a 2 megapixel camera; 4GB/8GB of storage; Bluetooth 2.0+EDR; WiFi; GSM radio with EDGE & a whole host of other fancy & handy dandy features.  This Cingular-exclusive phone will ship to the US in June of this year, you’ve already marked your calendars haven’t you?  And at a cost of just $500 for the 4GB or $600 for the 8GB version, it’s money well spent, I’d say.

You tell me- Does the Apple iPhone live up the hype?  I’m personally going with yes & then some!!!!

Verizon Will Censor YouTube for Cell Phones

November 28, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Cell Phones, Tid Bits & News at 8:28 am | (1) Comment »

Well, the word is in about the Verizon & YouTube relationship, & it doesn’t look fantastic.  According to Gizmodo, you will be able to access YouTube via your Verizon cell phone for $15 a month.

This deal is expected to be accounced officially later today & next month’s launch is highly anticipated, just in time for the holidays, eh?  But here’s the bitter drink, you will not be paying that precious $15 for the YouTube you know (and love), you will be receiving a video service from V Cast and will not be an exact replica of the YouTube website.

Hmmm, what do you make of that?  Still worth the 15 bucks a month?  I guess we’ll just have to try her out & let you know.

Satellite phones are traditionally known for being large, bulky & obtrusive.  But there is now, thanks to Globalstar, a new kid on the street.

Globalstar’s new GSP-1700 mobile satellite phones are the smallest, lightest phone that can access the global satellite network.  Although it looks like a shotgun met a cell phone, the GSP-1700 only weighs in at 7.1 ounces. 

The lithium-charged battery on the world’s smallest satellite phone allows users to communicate for up to four hours & features a standby time of 36 hours.  So, no matter where you are, you’re sure to be able to order that pizza; just not sure if you’ll be able to get it delivered!
