Aloisson's million dollar cellphone

Oh Peter Aloisson, we know you're killing this world with your 30k cellphone pricetags, but your aim's gotta be pretty damn true to take on a million dollar project. That's right, dude's whipping up a solid gold phone with about 2,600 natural blue diamonds for "a German manufacturer" who intend to use it for promotional purposes. Hmm, which German cellphone manufacturer that burns money faster than a cash furnace could they possibly be referring to?

That seems like a reasonable price. Can i get one of these in Walmart? I'm planning to buy 10 for Christmas.

I wonder if the $4/month cell phone insurance plan I have would cover this...

Are you crazy? Why would I pay a million to get that cell phone when I can get these rims?!?!? http://www.autoblog.com/entry/1234000270066703/

A million dollars and it's still not as cool or as functional as my Treo 650. (or that PPC-6700 that will be mine soon enough, Batman! BWAHAHAHA!) BUT OMG IT'S SO SHINY!

The new housing should help with EMI performance!

That's just retarded and a waste of money.
