These look so tackey they belong in Vegas

(Sigh!)

It's silly really. Except for that watch. I'd end up wearing it in the shower and buggring it's mechanism.

I would rather blow my (hypothetical) millions on high-spec cars as an absolute statement about my ability to buy and sell small countries.

Hear hear, Paul! It's hard to fathom that some of these tiny gadgets amount to more than it would cost to buy a Lamborghini (or whatever your car of choice would happen to be).

Yes, these gadgets do make me wish I was rich... so I could NOT spend my money on them. :)

Ridiculous? Not really.

People are constantly paying large sums of money for gold, diamonds, and other sniny things. Why does it suddenly become 'ridiculous' once said shiny object is attached to a gadget?

Let me guess americans own these items? Wow that doesnt suprise me! lol..what a joke to spend so much money on crap!

My partner and I can't even afford an engagement ring with .5ct diamond and here we have a cell phone smothered in them. Oh how the other half live....

like the article says, most are limited edition and there arnt many of them made. so they r for the super rich. people with billions in the bank, yeah some look tackey but hey some people r tackey. i see tackey people every day and they are even rich they r just wearing really really bad stuff.

you cant say you wouldnt spend huge amounts of money on random crap untill you become that rich. every body who dosnt have money says they wont do what other rich people do, but the matter of the fact is that your just guttered you cant do that. you may not want to get that stuff in this article but ul certinaly do something else with that money, like buy 10 ferraris or 18 houses around the world. spending 30 grand on a watch.

but why not spend your money on stuff, if your a billionair you have so much money that you cant possibly spend it all in a life time. you cant take your money with you when you die. so why not splash out on everything, buy something that there are only 7 of in the world even tho it costs over a million. you dont know what kind of life you will leade unitll you have millions in the bank account.

If you've got that much dosh, why waste it on pointless bling when you could give it away in ways that will make a positive difference in the world.

Much more satisfaction to be gained from that IMO.

Love the golden PS3. I wonder if they will need to replace the whole unit if the Blu-Ray reader dies.
