Stephen Colbert pretty much knows the guys to pick on and make absolute fools out of with great success and in the now famous “The Colbert Report”; Stephen targeted Milton Pedraza, the CEO of the “Luxury Institute”. According to recent news Milton Pedraza had recommended a strategy of “stealth wealth” and “avoiding conspicuous consumption for a less flashy image” during this economic crisis.

There are people who would simply buy what is in vogue. The result is that every person walking across Hyde Park would have the same thing with them. Then there would be others who like exclusivity. For the latter ones, Nokia has launched its latest craft-piece called the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte.  It has interesting materials in the making such as carbon fibre, titanium, polished glass and stainless steel to give it an arty look. But the USP of the product is that it is in 24k yellow gold makes it a sheer pleasure to see and hold.

At £2099, it is not a high price to pay considering the brand value of Nokia, the original design of the product and the fact that it is hand tailored in England. I particularly like the looks of gold on Black which reminds me of a beautiful speckled snake. It is so classy and unisex that it will appeal to both men and women!

Gold gold every where, neither is your iPhone spared. We just can’t seem to have enough of gold in our lives. We keep expanding limits to use our favorite metal.  Here is the Apple iPhone built in 24k Gold, 16GB and Unlocked. This iPhone, we can say, is a pack of three products - a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching - into one small and lightweight handheld device. It is exclusive and packed with all the things an iPhone could ever offer and introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. This completely redefines what we can do on a mobile phone as it enters the area of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device.

This sleek golden iphone is placed for an auction with US $1000 as the starting bid which might close at a much higher bid for its being an item worth being fancied, soon. The gold and the fact that it is unlocked, makes this model of iPhone astonishingly expensive. Though it is slightly used and lacks 3G but the exclusivity of the model is enough to make you ignore these minimal shortcomings.

This security comes in a variety of elegant shades to choose from especially the Piano finishes that are inspired by the graceful curves of the Steinway Grand Piano. This seems to be a melodious twist!

Trendy and chic as the iPhone may be, it still vies for your haughty touch (no pun intended!) and dressing it up in glam-style is the only option. So here’s technology coming hand-in hand with the pompous flair.
