Rich people: You can buy a $4,000 Android phone.

-
British phone company Vertu has had a rough history. Manufacturing luxury phones made with materials like genuine leather and ringtones recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra, prices can soar into the thousands. As fancy as their phones may be, last year Vertu filed for bankruptcy for failure to pay off their debts – $2 million dollars worth. A report from The Telegraph said that around 200 jobs were lost after the company was liquidated. Now, seemingly out of nowhere, Vertu has returned to the luxury phone scene with a new Android device that will cost you at least $4000.

The Aster P model’s 4.9 inch display is made of sapphire crystal glass. Those into animal rights made have a tough time with this one – if the price doesn’t scare you off, the back of the phone wrapped in crocodile skin could. The black, brown, blue and orange versions come in at $4000 but if you’re interested in having yours gold plated, be prepared to fork over $10,000 more.
While the aesthetic of Aster P is admittedly kind of cool (read: insane), before you hop back on the Vertu boat, just know that the specs are a little behind. The model is running the outdated Oreo 8.1 OS, which was released in December of last year.
The device is a bit over the top for us, but if you decide to invest in the Aster P, you’ll be the owner of a truly extravagant phone.

Board exams are seen as the veritable test of knowledge. Conducted countrywide and taken to be the most widely accepted form of school level certification, the boards rightly deserve the attention it receives. As the exam dates draw nearer, one common query amongst all students (be it 10 th  or 12 th  grade) is how to prepare in order to get a high percentage. Understandably enough, the increased competition all over the country doesn’t leave enough room for a lackluster preparation and the room for error has grown narrower.

Facebook gets a MySpace feel by adding profile songs

MySpace and Xanga were truly the epitome of the good old days of social networking profiles. Private messages and bulletin boards were the most special features, but the best part of having your own page was  picking a profile song.  MySpace charged ahead of Xanga at this point, first having one song auto-playing at a time, then opening up to giving you the option to create playlists so anyone visiting your page wouldn’t be forced to listen to the same song on repeat. We remember spending hours customizing our themes, creating playlists and customizing our top friends (carefully – there was  nothing  more scandalous than moving an old friend out of your top eight). Shortly after,  Facebook was introduced and it brought a more mature and organized layout, and the main point was to make statuses. Over time, Facebook became what it is today, but a lot of users couldn’t help but wonder,  would Facebook ever have music?  There are pages for musical artists, but how could the
