US$20,000 phone stolen in USA

Call them up when the battery goes down? lol... they're gonna melt it down and sell the gems. Hope Mr. Dragster doesn't expect his phone back anytime soon.

I've actaully seen ads for Vertu knock-off faceplate kits for $2.99 - bet these will popular wit da kids...

 

I think I could find better ways to spend that kind of money...a car for example, or a vacation.

 

Anybody who has $20,000 to throw away on a phone probably owns 15 cars.

 

I thought these phones were technologically advanced than the current phones, not riddled with jewels and precious metals. I'd rather have one of those sat phones just to brag that I could make a phone call anywhere on god's green earth.
