Mobile phones just cannot get the desired amount of affection even if it has the right number of cool uses. There has to be something filthy rich to jazz it up, else it wouldn’t create more than a murmur on the market.

Here’s a phone that would go off with a loud bang. Studded along the side with sapphires and rubies, this black beauty gives away a rather contrasting colour combination intended to impress the masses. The casing of chromatic precious stones is by Continental and it is no wonder then that it is exclusive to Continental Mobiles. The phone is available for any network and carries the simple beauty of the 3G iPhone, blinged up by the hand-crafted case.

This luxury phone would cost you £2600 and if this feels too expensive, then just satisfy yourself by checking out the picture.

iPhone, the unprecedented device by Apple, is being launched with another exclusivity factor. Continental Mobiles, well known for its range of luxurious cell phones, has pimped the 3G, 16GB white luxury i-Phone with Pigeon Blood Red rubies and white diamonds. Exclusively and intricately handcrafted, this piece of art comes from England for £3099 (about $5,550). Though this isn’t the first union of gemstones with the much-hyped 3G iPhone, it will certainly be leap forward of the earlier versions. This adorned Apple cell phone comes in a sophisticated briefcase that promises a shield to this delicate gadget. And that’s not all! This security comes in a variety of elegant shades to choose from especially the Piano finishes that are inspired by the graceful curves of the Steinway Grand Piano. This seems to be a melodious twist!

Trendy and chic as the iPhone may be, it still vies for your haughty touch (no pun intended!) and dressing it up in glam-style is the only option. So here’s technology coming hand-in hand with the pompous flair.

When the “rubies on phone” 3G iPhone was launched, people like me were happy to look at it from a distance. I say it because I cannot handle too feminine look of the handset, does not gel well with the way I carry myself. If you have been reading my posts, you would have guessed that my personality is that I prefer subtle to loud, under stated to gaudy. The new black and white diamond 3G iPhone is something that I would love to carry with me even if I am going to a corporate meet or to attend my grand uncle’s funeral! Sorry to use the expression but it really bugs me every time my sister takes the SIM out of her ruby phone and inserts in some appropriate handset, whenever we have to go for some mourning.

I certainly do not mind paying £3599 ($6,500) for this little useful device!
