Gresso unveils $1m solid gold phone

But don't expect any apps for your considerable buck

Luxury phone maker Gresso has unveiled the Luxor Las Vegas Jackpot - a $1 million handset made from 18-karat gold, 45.5k black diamonds and 200 year-old African Blackwood.

Nice. And if that's what the outside is like, just imagine the multimedia goodies in the Jackpot's innards. Well, imagine is the word, because there aren't any - this is a bog-standard feature phone for the disgustingly rich.

The appeal here is the ludicrously expensive attention to detail - every key is manufactured from single crystal sapphire, polished manually with the help of diamond tool. The numbers and letters are etched in with a laser. 

But if the Luxor Las Vegas Jackpot is a bit out of your price range, never fear - the plain old Luxor Las Vegas could be yours for just $20,000. Both devices go on sale this month.
