Electronic Bling: It's the Thing

Filed in archive Tech News Around The World by Eric Hanson on November 9, 2006

It seems to be the thing these days for the truly geeky and truly wealthy: your every day gadgets, blinged up. We've covered a few of them here on the gadgets weblog links

; now BusinessWeek.com has an article talking about a whole host of diamond- and gold-encrusted gadgets that various companies from Bang and Olufsen (the Serene - pictured - the world's most expensive cell phone at $1,275) to Tulip (the Ego Diamond, a laptop running at $355,000).

It's certainly an interesting phenomenon - who needs to buy three extra houses or five swimming pools when you can carry your conspicuous consumption with you - but it also strikes me as pretty silly; why exactly do you need $1275 cell phone? Unless you're rocking one of these, that is.
