IT NEWS: GADGETS: Limited Edition iPad 2 with Diamonds and Dinosaur Bone


If you think the iPad 2 is expensive, you haven’t seen the blinged-out versions made by different luxury companies like this iPad2 Gold History edition by Liverpool-based Stuart Hughes.

This luxurious iPad 2 not only has a 24-carat gold rear, but is also decked with 16.5 carats of ‘I’F’ flawless diamonds, 53 in total. The front frame is even made from Canadian ammolite, which is considered as one of the oldest rocks in the world dating over 75 million years old.

And if that was not unique enough, the ammolite also contains splinters from a 65-million year old thigh bone from a T-Rex dinosaur, then finished with a single cut 8.5-carat diamond inlaid in platinum, and surrounded with 12 outer flawless diamonds. This single iPad weighs about 2 kilograms.

Because this iPad 2 is so special, only two are made available. The cost? US$8 million each.
