Looks like someone took a blackberry pearl, ran it through the garbage disposal, and covered it with gold. A solid gold phone with sapphire buttons, that sucker's gotta be heavy.

solid gold, nice... sapphire buttons, nice... but how about the camera? does it have email? and lithium ion battery pack? screw that, it'd better be platinum ion or something rediculous If i'm spending 1.5 mil on this, i'd better be getting instant messaging capabilities or so help me...

I hope they let me demo this one at my store. So what features do you think that Big Red will cripple when they get it?

For 1.5M and it being hand-built, you betcha they can put a CDMA radio in it. I'm going to have them wire up a w315 phone as its brains.

Verizon would take the gold out of it and replace it with silver, but still sell it for the gold price.

Good god,... i hope Verizon NEVER puts this phone out on the market. As 'wswanson' said, VZW loves their GOLD price with their SILVER phones. (anyone got a 'bronze analogy for this?.... go with it now)

You can use it almost like a murder weapon. 'I killed the assistant in the kitchen with the gold cellphone' DO NOT ever give this phone to Niaomi Cambell.

LOL. Asurion.... yeah right. You would have to take out an insurance policy from a real insurance company. The conversation will go something like this: "Yeah.... state farm... I umm, well I purchased a really cool cell phone... uh huh, that's right a cell phone. It's net value was $100k... yeah I know that sounds rediculous, but it was an investment. It is made of solid gold and saphire so the 'value' will appreciate over time. I would like to take out an insurance policy for my phone. What will that cost me. $4000 a year... ok... Add it to my house and car. Thanks!"
