If you think that it’s only the iPhone that’s making a rage, you have all the reasons to think again for it is also the iphone sleeves and covers that are equally a mania. If the Swarovski crystalled iPhone case left you breathless. Check out this diamond encrusted wonder and you’ll be stunned! After all, diamonds are diamonds indeed!
This one from the house of Noreve is handcrafted and caked with no less than 272 diamonds making it to a stunning 6.8 carats. Made in fine leather, the iPhone case is good enough to make any one drool. And I guess, the iPhone truly deserves a home like this, specially when it is the Knalihs Athem diamond bathed iPhone.
Noreve offers a wide variety of colours for the diamond encrusted cover, right from the ever sensual black to passionate red and girly pink to cool blue and many more. Talking about price, we didn’t expect the Noreve diamond encrusted case to be any way reasonably priced and yes it wasn’t. So the crisp price tag hanging around the case reads $14,990. Quite deserved!

We all get tired of the same old boring designs that we see on our gadgets. A little bit of spice is always good and creativity is always welcome. So we bring to you a cool phone that looks like a, well, a high heeled shoes. Probably the one who created this design is a woman who can’t wear high heels or maybe it is a man with a foot fetish. Whatever the case may be, it looks elegant and sleek and is a touch-tone telephone.
It comes with pushbutton tone/pulse switchable dialing, last number redial, and mute button for privacy, electronic ringer and also fully modular cord that plugs into a standard jack. At about $60, this really must be a great buy if you want to turn heads and attract some attention. Even otherwise, it is a great gadget that will surely last for a long time and would stay durable as well. Now we wonder why they didn’t design a cell phone that comes in the shape of a shoe, or worse, in the shape of body organs.

If you rant and rave to people about saving energy and the environment, then perhaps it is time that you rethink the phone you are holding in your hand. Mobile phones are going green too, and we are not just talking about the colour this time. The Samsung E200 Eco is designed for the most eco-friendly people on earth who recite ‘reduce-reuse-recycle’ even in their sleep. The casing of the Samsung phone is made completely from corn-based bioplastics.

The E200 Eco appears quite simplistic and will appeal to your back-to-earth nature. Shiny black with the green side-casing, the features of the Samsung E200 Eco are not as simple. It includes a 1.3 megapixel camera, SMS and video messaging and an MP3 player so you can listen to songs like ‘Heal the World’ when people start to frustrate you. One special feature is that the phone beeps as a reminder to unplug the battery when the phone is fully charged, helping you save even more power. A word of advice, don’t try to eat the casing when you’re hungry.
