iPhone 3G Gets Dipped in 24 Karat Gold

Computer Choppers, whom brought us the Polished Gold Macbook Pro and the 24Kt Gold iMac is about to set someone’s wallet back with the 24K Gold iPhone 3G. Still in production, they are about almost done with making as they claim, the first “iPhone 3G with 24Kt yellow gold housing & Bezel.” Pish Posh diamonds are so passe, this is what all the kids want - something that emulates a gold brick from Fort Knox. Computer Choppers was even blunt enough to say how the materials this time around on the iPhone 3G were less than stellar and made it tougher for them to plate the “poor” quality plastic Apple used. Testing is still being done for those who want engravings and other customizations before it is plated, as well as how reception will hold up with the coat of gold on it. No pricing is available and as with everything they sell you will have to e-mail them to find it out the cost. So stay tuned to Computer-Choppers if this is what you would have in mind for your little iPhone 3G.
