If you like music, and it's hardly to tell who doesn't, an MP3 player is a must. And not any MP3 player, it must be an Apple iPod, and we add: it must be in gold. Since Usain Bolt is the Olympic Gold medallist, it was natural to connect him with "MP3 gold medallist" and get Usain Bolt gold iPod. That king of MP3 players comes with champion's signature laser engraved onto its back case and famous "pulling of the bow" pose. Together with 24 carat hardened gold you'll get a lifetime warranty against scratching. You'll hardly want (or need) another player after you get this one.
Of course, for you golden iPod you need adequate loudspeakers to share your precious music with your friends. The next time your luxury jet take you in Japan, be sure to buy Kanto Syd 5 iPod Speaker. Kanto speakers look great and they are not just another iPod speakers: they packs 80 watts of power, a bass reflex port, and a frequency response of 45hz to 20Khz. Kanto Syd 5 weighs more than 10 kilograms and delivers an impressive sound and, controlled with iPod's wheel, it can rock the house down.
There's no better way to take notes at a business meeting than using an iPad but it can be better: to use iPad made of gold. You can give a piece of wood to Stuart Hughes and he will make a fashion statement out of it. So, he did it again: he didn't just wrapped iPad in gold, he added 53 beautifully sparkling diamonds with 25.5 carats. That "golden brick" weights 2.1 kg, just like an average notebook, but perfectly polished solid gold will make any king envious. Especially when he hear that you bought the last one of just ten pieces being made.
Now, that golden iPad you won't keep on the table just like that, will you? No, you need one of the Louis Vuitton custom iPad Cases. They come in the Monogram and in the Damier Graphite design, and they look great but they also protect your precious device. For this piece of accessory you'll have to wait until 2011, but as they say for any Louis Vuitton piece: it's worth waiting.
Now, we’re almost done with this little "luxury makeover". To get in touch with royalty you need an adequate mobile phone. Luxury mobile phone maker Bellperre has developed a model just for you: crafted from metal, sapphire crystal and leather, the quad band device known only as the "Bellperre" comes with a 2.2-inch display, a 5 megapixel camera, GPS, accelerometer, FM radio, e-mail and support for up to 80 languages. But, there's more: the company will let you design your own from materials such as polished silver, 18K rose gold, 24K yellow gold, and 125 leather options including lizard, buffalo, shark or crocodile. ■
