According to this link http://www.esato.com/news/article.php/id=972, this must be the most expensive phone in the world at £161k. I cant really see it taking off, well not at that price but nevermind...its a very very nice phone though...4mp camera and wifi...

...excuse me while i go re-mortgage my house

I love how most of the comments are about the camera.

Why, yes, I have a £160,000 phone and use it to take amusing photos of my girlfriend in the pub.

£161k and yet it will be about a month before the joystick starts to fail. No problem though, simple insurance swap

The phone looks very good, but no way will I ever spend 161k on a phone, not even if my name was Bill Gates.

Must be a working aka escort girl then

...or perhaps daddys money stretches a long way. Ive seen the vertu phones, got to be the most minging phone i have ever seen. How can anyone justify such a price for a phone and a crappy nokia at that :eek:

lol except the Vertu phones apparently ARE scratch resistent. On the webby it says you can can gash it with a key and it wont leave a mark :eek:

Granted. Still a crappy Nokia with a large price tag though.
