That is an ugly phone.

wow... nothing exceeds like excess. kind of gaudy though, better in black diamonds or "crystals".

Kevin:

Sign me up for this contest!!!

What...? It's not a contest?

Nevermind :-)

dumb dumb dumb...did I mention dumb. what multi national company head is going to defraud customers / employers to buy this for his mistress??

what a waste!

That phone looks like it has a case on it made by a first grader who went to the arts and crafts section at Walmart and bought a bunch of cheap studs to put on it. Even if I had that kind of money to drop on one of those I wouldn't that phone looks awful!!!

at least put it on a higher end blackberry like a storm2 or a tour. all the bling in the world wont give it 3G data speed....unless its the plan all along to stand there waiting for the web page to load while showing off the bling factor

I like it. Would I buy it? No. It just screams, "Look at me, I have emotional problems. This is how I cope." I would do color ware though.

If you ever used a phone like that, you would have to OtterBox it to protect it, therefore covering the ugly ass diamonds anyways, so what is the point?

Wonder what it would be like to have too much money.

the world is full of people who look for lavish things. also, full of the eccentric and those who have so much money they look for ways to spend it. personally, i think the phone is ugly as sin and all the diamonds in the world can't help it's performance. needless to say this is crackberry and anyone who pays that much for a phone DEFINITELY can be said to have a BB fetish, lmao.

p.s. sure a tattoo is forever, but 240K?

I'll take a baker's dozen. thanks.

wow...fugly ...

I want one NOW daddy, NOW!

LOL this is so awful looking. Speaking of Vertu, who the hell would pay 4k for a nokia? It can't even do the things a bb can and a bb is cheaper and, in my opinion, better looking. Like a previous poster said, even rhinestones would look better than that expensive mess. It doesn't even look good because the keyboard is black, and so is the bottom. Maybe if they made them white it would look as slapped together as it does but everyone has an opinion lol.

Phone looks good, but I rather have a diamond ring than a diamond phone.

Taste free zone Paris Hilton probably has 3 on order. One to lose, one to be stolen and one to drop in a toilet.

If it had 3G and Wifi then maybe it would worth the money. ;)

Don't give AIG any ideas man. lol

"Excuse me sir, but the battery door appears to be loose on this Curve you sold me..."

If you think this is wild check out the Vertu phones made by Nokia, They come with a 24 hour conciege service and can run close to a million.. Why people pay this much for phones is beyond me, but some people have so much $ they got nothing better to do..

wow its such a shame someone wasted all those diamonds to make such a hideous looking phone!!!!! it actually made me have more pride inthe way mine looks lol

What a waste of a good phone, diamonds, and an insane amount of mula.

i bet if you ran a contest with one of these babys you site would overload lol
i still perfer it to be a storm2 or the 9900 ;)

I wonder if Michael Jackson had one?

I love my BlackBerry, but I'm pretty sure I could find better things to do with $240K...LOL.

Stupid, ugly, and wasteful. Now, an 8900 with an Aston Martin Vanquish wrapped around it, that might be worth $240k.

Is that the subsidized price with a 2 year contract, or can I get out of my contract if I decide I want to port out to Verizon Wireless?

I guess the economy isn't hurting some people. WTF!!!

The worlds ugliest Blackberry

saw dis link on twitter..was excited 2c d most expensive bb..what a waste!! i own a curve 8900 and i love it!!..this phone is an insult 2 it..it looks like shit mahn!! i wudnt even take it for free..i dunt wanna lose my self respect!! ;p

Please order me up a couple. I will pay the C.O.D. charges gladly for one of these. Does it come in pink diamonds? And a razor blade to slash my throat after I've made this fantastic purchase.

What a waste of perfectly good diamonds and a perfectly good BB. Proof that sometimes beauty + beauty = ugly.

You could fly to London and pick one up for 120K pounds (192K dollars at this moment). Plus you could probably get tickets to Top Gear from a scalper since you're probably wealthy enough to get past the 21 year waiting period for tickets.

Ugly as hell and who ever would pay for it has more money than brains

It isn't even attractive!

looks like a big pile of crap. Sounds like someone has more money than they know what to do with

i dont think it is worth $240k. it just looks like one of those cheap covers they sell at a kiosk at the mall.

i like!! aw, so expensive!

i hope the trackball doesnt start working... lol

Paris Hilton must be peeing in her pants...

if the ugly casters get it they will take it without question, its a greaat looking phone but one thing the cheeper parts like the keyboard and the back plastic kinda dimmed the face and the back. i will like to see a platinum keyboard to go with it as well and the back part too, by the way i got a 10k gold one with gold lines on the keyboard. lol

that's fugly ... wonder if the diamonds would improve reception on at&t or give you near 3g speeds. shit, at that cost, it should be FIOS speeds.

disgusting - most of them are probably blood diamonds.
