We’ll come right out and say it: we’re not entirely sure why this Samsung Omnia II Millionaire Pack exists. For roughly $957, you get what is essentially the same phone plus a leather case, a copy of Millionaire magazine, and.. a box. “Why wait? Get the millionaire feeling”, it reads.
Er – what? Look: We loath “luxury” phones as much as the next poor-ass blogger, but if you’re going to make the effort and drop the “millionaire” tag in there, at least go all out. Drop it in gold, diamond-stud it, and ensure that every ringtone on the handset is finely tuned to make everyone around the owner feel inadequate with each incoming call. Then crank the price up to $25,000. You’ve only got to sell one, right?

I took a look inside the Omnia II Millionaire pack in one store and found that it contained the 8Gb version plus an 8Gb microSD card. Admittedly the total memory in the pack is 16Gb but I was led to believe the internal memory of the unit should be 16Gb. Or is the store trying to fool me?
