I saw this first posted over on Mobile Mentalism, and I'm still not sure what to make of it. The GoldVish Limited Edition, pictured left, is the world's most expensive mobile handset, with a price tag of €1,000,000 - yep, 1 million euros. The price tag has earned the handset a place in the Guiness Book of World Records, but one thing that has to be asked is: who approved the design?

The handset, which is solid gold and encrusted with various jewels, also comes with a crocodile skin back just to round things out.

t comes with GPRS, EDGE, Quad-band, Bluetooth, 2.0 Mpixel camera, FM-radio, MP3 player, stereo speakers, 2 GB SD memory card, Email, SMS, EMS, MMS, handsfree function, 262.000 colour TFT display with a resolution of 176 × 220 pixels and voice memo.

So, not very many features then.

Once again, thanks to Mobile Mentalism.

It would be great if I would have that phone. It's just not for me simply because it's too expensive. Here's another site you might want to look at to see some more very expensive items. Thank you.
