Mobiado Grand 350 Pioneer is made out of a meteorite - read the full textThe Mobiado Grand 350 Pioneer is designed in honor of the Pioneer 10 probe, which became the first man-made object to pass the asteroid belt. Therefore, it's natural to make the phone out of a real meteorite (the back cover anyway). A meteorite surely tops all the mundane materials such as...

I called the London office of their distributors today to ask how many noughts there are on the end of the price tag.

There was a long pause, and they didn't really appear to know what I was talking about and said they would find out and call me back. If they do I'll post the price here so everyone can have a really good laugh!

great to see how far mobiles have come..

first it was portable mp3's in your cell, than a camera for easy pics and than the internet..

Tomorrow's phone is gonna be made out of KRYPTONITE so that incase you're a billionaire who wants to defeat Superman you can just take out your cell and kill him.. all with the ease of mobility

Nuts, absolutely nuts. How about some other ideas for what they could incorporate into a phone:

1: Parts of the World Trade Centre / SS Titanic
2: Case made of pure Coltan (is it more expensive than gold yet?)
3: Parts of G W Bush's Brain (very small amounts available so strictly limited edition)
4: Parts of limousine that JFK / Princess Diana was driving in
5: Leather pieces from used World Cup footballs / cricket / rugby balls
6: Cheekpads made from Dolly Parton / Jordan's used breast implants
7: Dinosaur bones
8: Ancient Egyptian artefacts. The Nokia Amenhotep 900? There's a catchy name...
9: Endangered animal skins? How about a phone running Leopard OS with a real Leopard Skin. Perfect accessory for Russian Oligarch's plaything
10: Whale p@nis leather. The Russians have made a car with seats made of this stuff. No really they have. Why oh why....

Any other ideas?

I like this phone except for the lack of 3.5mm audio jack. Because it is such a limited edition I am sure it is all sold out. But I want it, I want it badly. I am sure I will dream about it tonight!
