GoldVish Revolution isn't for the modest, poor

Some luxury phones manage to pull off their lot in life with a sense of understated elegance; on the opposite end of the spectrum, there's this. The GoldVish Revolution looks every bit as gaudy as its predecessors, but throws in a mechanical watch for good measure -- something that's become strangely popular in this market segment lately. All told, you're looking at some 29 carats of diamonds and a whole bunch of 18k gold, but act fast: only 9 are being made, and something tells us there are more than nine weirdos in the world willing to pay the €369,000 (about $485,500) being asked.

Wow, a phone that makes the Motorola Aura look like the best phone deal ever!?!?!

It isn't even the $485k, it is the complete ugliness of the phone. Wanna bet the KIRF version of this phone looks a lot better?

(Slowly shaking head) Obscene, absolutely obscene. Offensive . . . Uh, help me with some other descriptors, somebody.

I really hope every single person who purchases this phone is immediately faced w/ images of people who CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY FOOD after buying this monstrosity. This is worse than the greed of the Walton family... not the fictional one. :-P
