If you thought that Nokia's Vertu range of handsets were one of the most expensive handsets in the Nokia stable then think again. Welcome, Nokia Supreme, the costliest of all Nokia's out there. Taking its design inspiration from the Nokia 8800, this pimped up handsets boasts of 83 grams of platinum, which is used in making the veneers, 8 screws that hold the phone together and a diamond mount for the center button. Apart from the platinum, the phone's studded with 1,225 pink diamonds. The center diamond is a 3 carat single cut flawless one. Now the main and scary part (for poor guys like you and me), the phone will be your if you can shell out $160,000 and it will be shipped to you in a granite case with suave leather interiors. I guess once someone one buys this phone, he/she also needs to invest in some kind of security.

HTC has come up with a very innovative way of promoting its latest Android based phone Hero in the Russian market. HTC is using Chocolate replicas of HTC Hero and sending them to chosen customers. The chocolate looks exactly like the Hero but does not work. Its meant for eating. By the way, the dark brown color looks good. I guess HTC should come with a similar color variant for the HTC Hero.
