It’s like the $5,000 handset isn’t enough, Christian Dior and its “partner in crime” ModeLabs are launching the even more fancier version of the phone called Lady Dior. And while I’m trying my best to imagine that special someone who deserves the 18,000 EUR ($28,360) mobile phone, Dior folks obviously aren’t targeting me as a consumer of their ultra-high-end products. But — as it’s always the case with fashion phones — they’re not selling the features. Rather they think 640 Swarovski stones along the famous Dior brand are enough to justify the absurd price. 2.6-inch QVGA screen and a 2 megapixel camera won’t help either. Guess selling one of these is enough to keep that Champs-Élysées store up and running for a month…

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
