You will never ever own this one. And neither will I. That’s because this phone is for the filthy rich. It comes from luxury handset maker Gresso, and is called Luxor Las Vegas Jackpot. The price? Oh, just $1 million. I’m sure you have that just lying around.

The phone case is made of 180 grams of pure gold, encrusted with 45.5K black diamonds and an African Blackwood back panel. The keypad keys are made from a single manually polished and laser engraved crystal sapphire. Gresso is only making 3 of them.

When knockoff makers get creative it’s always a surprise because they are so uncreative the rest of the time. Here we have an Adidas flip phone. The Adidas brand is even spelled correctly and it actually looks like a shoe. Adidas should be running with this idea and making an official phone themselves.

This “adidass808″ is not that great when it comes to specs though. It features a 2.4 inch screen (240 X 320), dual SIM card slots and camera (1.3 megapixel), FM radio, micro-SD card slot, mini-USB port, and a removable battery. It’s based on GSM, and runs “MTK platform”. There’s also up to 4 hours of standby time and 3 hours of talking time.

The folks at Lava International Ltd have come up with a couple of handsets called the Lava B2 and Lava B5 They look like a BlackBerry at first, but use Alpha keyboards instead of the familiar QWERTY.

The Alpha features a totally radical alphabet arrangement in fact, using alphabetical order. This would be good for those who use cellphones, but are not comfortable with QWERTY keypads.

We have seen a phone from Bellperre before back in November of 2009 that was made from wood. The company is back with a new phone that can be customized with different types of leather, gold, and other materials.

The phone offers 125 different leather colors and the buttons can be made from brushed steel, silver, or rose/yellow gold. The leather options include odd things like pink crocodile and red shark.

We’ve been hearing rumors of a software update for Microsoft’s Kin One and Kin Two phones. And it looks like the phones will be getting one soon. We aren’t sure if it will include the rumored IM improvements, but a Kin support moderator has confirmed on the Microsoft Answers forum that an update is scheduled for “mid-summer,”.

The update will address many of the concerns laid out in the post that prompted the response. Those complaints included battery issues, improvements to the Twitter client, and YouTube support. Apparently the Facebook app will also be updated to let users view more than three pictures at a time.

The ZTE F350 is the first phone manufactured by the Chinese company to head to Verizon Wireless and it has received FCC approval. The ZTE F350 could be arriving at a Verizon store near you very soon. The ZTE F350 is not powered by the Android operating system and it isn’t even a smartphone.

The ZTE F350 is an entry-level slider with a QVGA display, VZ Navigator, Bluetooth, email support, a 1.3-megapixel camera and an average battery. Verizon will likely offer this phone for nearly free with the customary 2-year contract.

Verizon and Pantech are almost ready to release a successor to the Razzle. The handset is dubbed the Pantech Jest. It’s a slider that sports a QWERTY keyboard and it’s expected to be launched very soon. The info is pretty detailed, so it seems legit.

No mention of price, but some specifications include that QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth, a 2-megapixel camera, microSD card expansion up to 16GB, a 2.5mm headphone jack, Dedicated messaging key, GPS and VZ Navigator support.

Some days I think working out in the open by myself would be welcome. Then I remember that there is no internet or AC out in the wild and come to my senses fast. Sonim has unveiled a new mobile phone for the folks who do work outdoors where things can get rough and the risk of bodily harm is high.

The handset is called the Sonim XP3 Sentinel and has an interesting help capability. The handset has a green button, amber button, and a red button. The red button immediately calls for help and sends GPS coordinates when pressed.

Sprint is introducing the Samsung Restore today. You might remember that the Samsung Restore is an eco-friendly handset that will cost you $50 on contract. It’s made almost completely out of recycled materials with minimal levels of hazardous materials.

When the time comes and you’re done with it, you can even recycle up to 84% of its guts if you like. It’s a basic handset that makes and receives calls and let’s you text message without any fancy features.

I recall seeing the Modu mobile phone at CES a few years back and thinking it was a cool idea. The device is a tiny cellular phone module that you can slip into various different cases to completely changes the device and its interface.

A new Modu phone has surfaced and it is called the T-Phone. The device has a touchscreen and looks like a slick little interface as well. The handset is the first from Modu to have 3G connectivity.

If mobile TV is your thing, the Innocomm Shark Android 3.5G packs a 3.2 inch touchscreen, along with some other nice features, like for instance mobile TV. The Shark features a capacitive touch on that screen and has an 8 megapixel camera, 3.5G connectivity, Wi-fi support and analog TV.

Sounds like a nice entertainment-based smartphone to us. It’s Android and even has a provision for recording TV grabs. Nothing on price yet, but we’ll keep you posted when we find out.

DeLorme’s Earthmate PN-60w with SPOT Satellite Communicator is set to hit retail shelves as soon as next month in the US, although we don’t have an exact date. The Earthmate PN-60w is the first handheld GPS in the world that allows for Type & Send text messaging via satellite.

It will connect wirelessly with the SPOT Satellite Communicator, where all messages composed on the PN-60w’s internal keyboard will be relayed via satellite for delivery using SPOT technology. Nothing on price yet, but it sounds like the ultimate texting tool for rich kids.

It’s the 30th anniversary of Gundam and to celebrate, Bandai has teamed up with Japanese network Softbank for a limited edition Gunpla phone. Each phone comes with a 1:100 scale Gundam model kit, a Gunpla phone cradle, and decals.

The phone itself is a 12.1MP OLED flip. This might be the best phone ever. Pretty Asian lady not included. We didn’t see anything on price, but obviously it’s expensive.

Look at the size of this watch phone. It’s so big I can see Cindy Crawford’s mole. They describe it as a “compact 47 x 55 frame” that is the world’s smallest super cell phone. I suppose if you want an actual phone on your wrist, you want it this size though just to be functional.

The Penthouse watch phone features a 1.5 inch touchscreen, full native quad band functionality for worldwide use, Dual SIM card slots for business and personal communications, and is fully unlocked for use on whatever network you choose.
