A 14.000 USD cellphone... WTF?
Posted: Wed Jul 18, 2007 1:44 pm
Yesterday I had to unlock my phone (I really hate simlocks - but that's another topic). However, there was a guy in that store trying to convince the man behind the counter to buy a "special" cell phone from him...
He seemed quite suspicious and I kept an ear on their conversation. The mobile phone he had with him in a plastic bag was a "Vertu Signature". I've never heard about this - and I'm happy I didn't, because this is probably the most useless piece of crap you can buy for money:

Talking about money: This thing is sold on eBay for ~11.000 USD. How sick is that?
I mean: Yes, it has a sapphire scratch-proof-display and a titanium & stainlesss steel hull, but I don't believe that people who buy this buy it because they need these "enduring features".
Something is really, really wrong out there....
