Guys, are you having trouble finding something for your girlfriend or significant other?  Motorola has the answer to all your problems with their new $2,000 cell phone.  Instead of buying them chocolates and a nice sweater, you can buy them an expensively outrageous phone for only 1 small payment of 2 grand.

This phone, called The Aura, will be all the new rage.  Sure there might be phones with roughly the same quality for a tenth of the price, but who wants to buy something “cheap”?  Besides,  if you bought something cheap, you would miss out on some of these great items,

  •  Chemically etched textures and patterns
  •  Three tungsten-carbon-carbide-coated main gears
  •  The main bearing is Swiss-made
  •  Protective PVD coating and mirror polish finish, same as used on luxury watches
  •  130 precision ball bearings
  •  Scratch-resistant, 62-carat, grade 1 sapphire crystal display

Oh, I also forgot to mention…it even comes with a 2 megapixel camera!  What a great gift for the family!

    All a girl could ever want… jewelery and cell phones mixed into one.

    Rich kids are going to be the cat’s meow.

    Haha, so true. I was flippin out when I saw this. I really couldn’t believe it until I really looked into it. It seems more like a “Get the headlines” move than anything to be honest. Oh well, I’d be interested in seeing how well they do selling…
