Wait. How much did you pay for your iPad?

Economic hardship? What's that? If the recession affected you as much as it did that rock on your villa grounds, have I got an iPad for you. For a mere US$20,000 you can order the Diamond iPad.

The 64GB 3G iPad is modded by Mervis Diamond Importers and features 11.43 carats of diamonds set in a micro-pave styling. If you're the kind of guy that wants to one-up the friend who's always bragging about the latest tech he got on launch day, this is how you do it.

Besides, is $20,000 that much? Not when you compare it to the $3.2 million dollar gold iPhone. And the Diamond iPad's screen is so much larger...

Still not enough for you? Check out the gold-plated MacBook Air (a mere $5,000) and MacBook Pro ($1,200).

Apple's products are so over priced. I can't believe they would charge so much for a tablet computer. I could get the same features in a windows tablet for a fraction of that price. Minus the diamonds, sure, but I don't really need my tablet to look good. Total Apple tax here.

Where can i preorder one ?
Is it limited to 2 per customer?
Will it come by fedex on my door step in late April ?
Does it need special case or can it fit in the $39.99 apple case ? I don't want to spend extra on a special carrying case.

:)

I'm with mrtotes. If someone has been fortunate enough to have that much money, they should really help out those who are genuinely struggling.

All rich people need to give me $20K to pay off my student loan and provide me with monthly income for the next 50+/- years. Income needs to cover my expenses of Canon lenses, and world travel. Both of my BS degrees (accounting/music business) are in fact just that, a load of BS.

Granted a diamond studded iPad or a gold plated computer is probably up there with the most pointless things to do with your money, but hell if you earned that money do with it what you wish. Isn't that what makes the USA great?

Pfft, gold plating is for the rabble. Where is my solid gold diamond encrusted iPad with the supermodel holder.

If you have this much money... please give some to charity...

Buying bling stuff likes this just makes you look like a chav twat.
