Nokia To Sell $25,000 Ferrari Phone

I'm buying one.

Nokia should be investing in therapy for the delusional designers who concocted this... THING!

Same comment applies:

It has nothing to do with Nokia. If you are in a business to make money and a business idea presents itself that will generate a sizeable return or profit...would you take it or say "nah..people would buy it but I think it's a stupid idea". How long would you have that job when your management finds out you ditched an idea that would generate a huge cash revenue simply because you thought it was a "stupid" idea? You might be into cars but you don't know jack about business...stick to what you know!

$25,000!?!?!?!?!?

lol I don't know what to say!

Anyone who is paying $25,000 dollar are:

A)had alot of money
B)stupid
C)had a lot of money
D)stupid
E) you get the point

I wonder what the folk at Nokia been smoking or inhaling lately? must be some really good authenic stuff. I wonder if they like would give a sample?

What hsa this world coming too?

even if i had that money and i wud buy it which is less likely, imagine if u drop the phone or get a crack on your screen i bet the owner will get quite frustrated spending a car worth just on a phone

The casing is titianum alloy, so even if you drop it, it won't break.

It's worth every dollar because that is considered fine jewelry just like Rolex time piece watches. A status symbol.

And I remember reading an article at the supermarket checkout that Paris Hilton and Lindsy Lohan both got one too. They say the crystal clear reception and never a dropped call makes it worth every penny. In addition, the battery life last 10 times longer than the common phones because they say they talk all day long and the battery never runs out.

It also has the distinction of running only on older/slower networks (so there goes your B.S. clear reception claim), not supporting the latest BT technologies, et al.

Crap Technology Wrapped in Expensive Materials IS STILL CRAP!

Note: MY GAWD! What Am I Thinking...

I forgot what CREDIBLE ELECTRONICS Reviewers Paris and Lindsay are... NOT!

IDIOCY... NEXT!

Of course, if Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan say it, it MUST be true!

I can't understand the audacity of some people who think they are justified in judging the intellect of people of wealth. If you can't or don't want to purchase a $25,000 phone becuase of personal reasons or because you can't afford it...that doesn't make you any more intelligent than someone who has the resources to purchase said phone or whom has a personal reason for doing so. There are people starving all over the world that wouldn't understand throwing money into designer clothes, PS2s or iPhones or whatever...but you still do it. The moral of the story is that if you don't have anything nice to say keep it to yourself!

Hmm... would I rather have a used 308 GT, or this? Hard decision.

need4speed, I own and run my own fitness business in southern California so I know how business kiddo. I don't need you to lecture me on the business side.

Business is to take money, how do you make alot money quick and last a long time? Find a problem and make something that can solve the problem and sale it cheap so everyone can buy it.

That why Toyota is so successful because they make car for the mass and sale it cheaper than their rival. Well it use to be cheaper than their rival but you get the point.

ps. thankfully most the people on this website is NOt like you need4speed.

I knew about the phone since 430 unveiling but did not think it was a big deal since this is an everyday thing with expensive sports cars. Actually CAR magazine has an image where you can visibly see a Vertu handset clearly in the center console. Did not want to bring it up since I felt like no one would know what I was talking about. Here is the image:

I meant 430 Scuderia unveiling...

Brilliant! Vertu phones = jewellry

I can't wait to see how many loser douches around beverly hills have these phones.

Well there are supposedly only 60 units.....

Vertu phones have been around for more than 4 years.

You Idiots who think people would pay $25k for a phone with worse reception and battery life than the regular Nokia & Samsung phones are just like your President (Beyond Salvage)

These Phones are designed to be Extremly Good at the basic stuff,(Making and Receiving Calls // Text Messages) and some are Personalised with Precious Gems for those who wish to add some spice to their Cell Phone.

You cannot affor it, No Problem
You cannot understand it, No Problem

But to say those who buy it are stupid lets everybody else know how Stupid you actually are.
