Once Apple’s premiere iPad tablet hit the shelves, it was only a matter of time before luxury gadgeteers got their hands on a few and set to work on creating the most expensive iPads in the world.
Mervis Diamond Importers’ Diamond iPad – $19,999
Mervis Diamond Importers bills their offering as “the world’s first diamond iPad.” Available on June 1st, 2010, this elite iPad is bedecked with 11.43 carats of diamonds in a micro-pave setting. With stones graded G/H (near colorless) and VS2/SI1 (slightly or very slightly included), this diamond device is sure to make you the envy of your peers.
iPad Supreme Gold Edition – $192,000
The iPad Supreme Gold Edition, similarly to Stuart Hughes’s other “Supreme” devices, boasts a 22k gold shell weighing 2,100 grams and encrusted with 53 flawless diamonds totaling 25.5 carats and individually set in the shape of the familiar Apple logo.
Of course, all of this customization would be next to worthless if Hughes hadn’t used Apple’s top-of-the-line 64GB 3G iPad as the basis for his creation.
Only ten iPad Supremes have been created and each is priced at a hefty $192,000. If you’re not lucky enough to be able to purchase one, however, Goldstriker International offers a diamond-less 24k gold iPad for a more reasonable $3,242.
