    If you're carrrying 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.

    While any commoner can carry around 32GB of data in an ugly plastic flash drive nowadays, the discriminating gadget lover would much rather carry around 4GB of data in Bissol's luxury brass enclosure -- which the company is also touting as the "world's smallest 4GB flash drive." The .1-ounce ReadyBoost-compatible drive is machined in the same way as old-school Swiss watches, and come in your choice of original brass or nickel-plated finishes. No word on price, but we doubt you'll be finding these in the bargain bin anytime soon.

    "Why, Bill, your cologne -- I, I can only assume you're toting a luxury cellphone." Les hommes should supposedly expect such provocative complements when donning Mobiado's newest venture, Perfume No. 919, created in cooperation with fragrance guru Bissol. The target demographic for this pricey liquid ($300) is quite literally "luxury mobile phone users" of the male persuasion; what we don't understand, however, is what that smells like or why we'd want to duplicate it. At any rate, if this all makes sense to you but you're worried about spilling your precious eau du mobile in shipment, fear not; Perfume No. 919 comes bottled with "a double industrial o-ring seal system to prevent leaks."[Via T3]
