Sony Ericsson Pureness: Crystal Clear, Obscenely Expensive

Dictionary.com defines 'decadence' as "unrestrained or excessive self-indulgence". Based on that definition, buying the Sony Ericsson Pureness certainly qualifies as decadent. The manufacturer just sent out a press release announcing the new mobile's availability. The idle rich (and the ultra-stylish) can pick up the Xperia Pureness now from www.saks.com for just $990. Sure, you could purchase an unlocked Droid and cover around 6 months of data bills for that kind of scratch. But then you couldn't be a part of the "debate about people's relationship with technology in a complex world'. So, uh, there's that. The Pureness is a pretty bland feature phone on its own...but that exorbitant price does qualify you for the Pureness concierge service. Sony brags this service provides its members with localized global concierge support 24 hours a day in cities around the world. So, if you're the kind of person who spends his time jetting across the globe, this phone will help you keep up to date all the best rich people clubs and social events in the area.
