Yes, it’s true. RIM’s BlackBerry Porsche Design P’9981 has been upscaled. This originally had a price tag of a cool $2,000, but now it’s up for grabs on eBay for a remarkable $8,000. Seller “77supplies” took it upon himself to douse the Berry in 24ct Gold, then call it “Limited edition”. Actually, there’s “only 100 units being commissioned worldwide” and “Each one will be numbered and marked as part of this limited edition project”.
Anyone interested? Check it out via eBay here

look at it this way, its gold, and the price of gold is increasing. Technically this can be an investment. 50 years down the road, sell the phone just because its gold.

Or just buy $8,000 in actual gold instead of a plated blackberry. Would make the return worth while.

Too cheap. I’m waiting for the Lamboughini edition.
Every phone should cost a minimum of $10,000 and come with the lastest version of ICS with it’s nonfunctional app store.

It’s a status symbol, nobody in their right mind actually thinks that this is a good deal, but it shows that you have money and are willing to pay a premium for overrated “exclusive” things. Personally, I’d never buy one.

The phone would be obsolete in no time, the only value would the weight of gold on it which probably would be meager considering it’s plated and built entirely out of gold.

O.K. I get it now:
RIM used to market to business professionals, but now that they are leaving for apple & android they are focusing on BOLD DJ’s, emotional cup cake makers that love to looks at cup cakes and love to put icing on their cup cakes ….and rich people that are willing to spend $8,000 in a phone. I get it! The marketing campaign is clear as ICE…ing.
..I love watching cup cakes
