The Nokia Oro, or Nokia Gold, is a new Symbian-powered smartphone that is definitely not for everyone. This is a phone for someone who doesn’t mind spending around $1,125 for a phone with an operating system that’s about to become irrelevant. The software isn’t the selling point here. The materials that make up the Nokia Oro is second to none. The phone is made up of 18-carat gold with a sapphire crystal as the home key. On the back, the Nokia Oro is made up of premium leather from Scotland. It’s being marketed to people in Europe, Eastern Europe, China and the Middle East. It’ll be released in the third quarter of 2011.

There are some products you can’t help but think are just pointless and you cannot see why anyone would possibly want to buy it. This is one of those.

The Pure*Gold PC is a fairly mid range PC with decent specifications, supposedly low noise levels and a nice design, but as its name suggests there is something different about this: it’s made from gold. But no, it is not gold trimmed, and no, it is not gold stylishly designed into and practical and aesthetically pleasing design. Oh no. This is a big, gold box. . . .

There can be no doubt about the direction laptop manufacturers are taking with their new offerings – provide top specs and performance and create a laptop that’s truly personal and eye-catching.

With Sony, HP, and Dell towing the line, Fujitsu is quick to follow with a stunning “pink” new offering – the Fujitsu LifeBook P8010 Limited Pink Gold Edition. The original LifeBook P8010 was already a solid laptop in its own right, but it looks downright pale when compared to the Limited Pink Gold Edition. With the new sleek look, signature chrome hinges, and high-gloss finish, you’ll be hard pressed to find a machine more easy on the eyes.
