Hey there Richie Rich. You might want to hold off on that iPad purchase. I know, you were hoping to look douchey and get it as soon as everyone else, but just hold up a sec. Here’s one that will make you look even more douchey.

The usual downsides apply here. No flash support, non-replaceable battery, the very real certainty that you will be mugged and die, just to name a few. It’s covered with 11.43 carats of diamonds, graded G/H in color, VS2/SI1 in clarity etc.
