So it seems that Alexander Amosu’s BlackBerry Pearl Diamond Edition, which retailed for $90,000, wasn’t enough. The latest BlackBerry from Amosu, of which only three were made, retails for about $200,000 and puts its Diamond Edition predecessor to shame.
Living up to its extravagant price tag, the latest Amosu BlackBerry is made out of solid 18 karat gold and encrusted with 4,459 diamonds, which have a net weight of 28.43 karats. It also comes with a global concierge service for "accessing the inaccessible", according to NewLaunches.com.
