For whatever reason dunking our laptops in molten platinum is proving more difficult than getting our first pair of
Adidas bronzed, so until we figure a better way to sate our Midas-like obsession, we're forced to buy only what are
invariably the most tacky of
gaudy of
ridiculous consumer electronics. Like the RAmos,
for example, a gold-plated number available in sizes up to 2GB. Who cares what it does, man, it's freaking
gold.

Not only that, but it has a transparent screen through which you can see a beautiful bracelet that appears to be around a snake.
I luff goooooooooooold.
#1... try 'a ring on a gloved finger'...
No matter how much you have to spend for that thing they still give you crappy headphones? Thats too funny, if the head phones pictured are the ones that come with the mp3 player.
At least the headphones aren't gold, otherwise going down the subway would be a deathwish.
Add this shot to the transparent screen pool at flickr?
You'll still get jacked for it.
I can see the headline now...."Man shot over his gold-plated Mp3 player...Thief thought it was a mini-tv...dosent even know what an Mp3 is..."
iPod nano ripoff.
Sorry, had to say that. Eventually someone will.
its funny how the shot is blurry but the screen makes it seem "crystal clear"
"iPod nano ripoff."
Stupidest thing I've read today.
Not such a nano rip-off...
Hmm maybe I can get a gold razor...
Urm... can anyone else see 50 cent sporting one of these in his next video?
You're stupid, Matt.
Actually, that looks a lot like the Toshiba Gigabeat minus the touch-sensitive controls, not a Nano.
It's a decent player, it plays the usual MP3/WMV, but also OGG (wee!), MPEG4 and AVI (the Fish doesn't help me to find the codec). Looks like it has also line-in, which is cool.
But, as said by Ryan, it does't matter, because it's made in fscking gold... :P
