Should've been Plugged Out at birth No. 13

No, no, no, no, no.....no. If ever there was a good reason to Stick With What You Got in the gadget department, this is it.


According to Gizmondo, it is:


"World's Stupidest, Most Expensive iPhone Mod Yet Costs 2.5 Million Dollars."


That's because it comes with 19-carat gold plus a 6.6 carat diamond home button, looks like the kind of grotesque travesty of blinged-out tastelesness only a 5-year old would think is beautiful, and costs $2,500,000 dollars (no, that's not a typo).


A prime example of something that Should've been Plugged Out at birth, along with all the rich idiots who bought one.

Comments from Facebook... Toni Greaves at 4:41pm March 20 That is disgusting. The money spent to buy that one gadget could fund small business in developing countries, or education on climate change, or education on why we shouldn't eat meat (true).... but instead, a blinded-by-wealth idiot carries around a $2.5m toy in their handbag. Appalling. Daniel Julian Green at 4:51pm March 20 Nobody buys them. It's for publicity. Apparently Victoria's Secret comes out every year with a more outrageous (in dollar terms) jewel encrusted bra. They never sell those either. It's all in this book http://www.robert-h-frank.com/book.html Christopher Noble at 8:46pm March 20 I wonder if they'd do me one in cubic zirconium.
