Get You A Kipnis Home Theather For $6 Million


If you've always wanted to know what kind of home theater system that 6 million will get you, take a look. No word on exactly where every dime was spent, but it's safe to say that most went into the design of the room. The Kipnis Studio Standard room has more than one function, because it serves as a model for other rich people interested in having one designed for them. Jeremy Kipnis will be more than happy to put together a 8.8 channels of surround sound, 16 subwoofers and video resolution four times better than 1080p.

This thing has a $100,000 4K SRX-R110 projector, which projects on a 18-by-10-foot Stewart Snowmatte "laboratory-grade" screen. This thing can upconvert all Blu-ray and HD DVD content to 4,096 x 2,160 in analog. And there's even a secondary projector, that will give you the normal "full HD" that we've come to know and love.

Porsche P'9521: Cell phone: Cool Price: Huh!!!


I have to admit that I kind of like this clamshell handset Porsche Design cell phone. It's made out of aluminium and mineral glass, and weighs 137g. But what is cool about this thing is that it's packed with tons of stuff like fingerprint reader, a 3.2-megapixel camera with auto-focus and dual LED photo lights. The Porsche P'9521 screen can also spin 180 degrees, so you can use it as a view finder.

I think that the biggest problem with this phone is one of my biggest complaints about Porsche itself....... the price tag! This cell phone comes in at a whopping $1634!!!

Ah.. come on!!!

Gundam robot: expensively stupid


What you are looking at is one of the most expensive toys in Japan. The Gundam Fixed Platinum was created by Bandai Co. and is a miniature of the Gundam robot from the anime series. The thing weighs 45 oz, stands 5 inches tall, and is made from pure platinum. Melted down at today's prices makes this thing worth $41,468.

You really have to be a big time fanboy for this one.

Note to self: If you ever become a millionaire, don't buy dumb expensive stuff.
