yep that's right if you thought the Sony xperia 1 or the touch HD was pricey you haven't seen nothing. Keep in mind that both those phones hover around the 750 usd range. this new phone the "Skeleton" made by a company called Gresso. the phone is nothing really special spec wise. 2mp camera, 2 gigs of internal storage, mp3 player. to be frank its not even a ppc it runs the smart phone os. that's only half the specs this bad boy has.
the reals story is it has 23 keys that are “executed of 18k gold” as well as a hand-polished 42k sapphire glass, that cover its qvga screen. this is a limited edition phone with only 50 of the devices being made world wide. so with that you can imagine how much this is gonna cost. the retail price is $4,400 yes that is American dollars.
this is not unique in that there are other companies like nokia's vertu that sell very basic phone but have them "blinged out" in gold, diamonds or other gems and then sell them for a small fortune
