Luxury, meet ridiculous: the Mobiado Luminoso battery cover flash drive

If you're carrying around a Mobiado Luminoso cell phone, it's a safe bet you might be interested in Bissol's brass-encased 4GB flash drives -- so why not jack the ritz factor by combining them in Mobiado's new battery cover for the Luminoso, which features a storage / display compartment for the included drive? That's right -- Mobiado asked itself what its customers wanted, and came up with a custom battery cover that only holds an opulent brass flash drive. Damn, we knew we weren't exactly the target market, but you'd think they'd at least try to go quadband first.

I like the section if wikipedia where they mention that in new jersey, the do allow iditos to vote nowdays, but instead they've changed it to "who has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to lack the capacity to understand the act of voting."

This means that if you dont understand the act of voting at me, you should not have the right to vote!

From Pierre Tristian Brissol web-site:

"The Brissol USB memory stick is encased in solid brass and machined using the same precision machinery and age old techniques used in manufacturing Swiss mechanical watches"

It somehow calls for... Steampunk! Yeah! :))
Did they make a flash memory using "Swiss precise mechanic" gears too?

Now I understand the $260 pricetag! It's a Swiss mechanics and a steampunk!

I start having a weird unnatural desire to go buy this thing... :)))
