Just for the record, iPods aren't the only gadgets that can be covered in diamonds or dipped in gold. GeekSugar says Amosu, which gave us the gold iPod, has veered beyond Apple products and applied its 24k gilding brush to LG's Prada phone for just under $1,000.

It's not the first time that Amosu has branched out, of course, given that it's promised to customize just about anything for the right price (or the wrong one, depending on your point of view). But don't worry, it still has more than a little ways to go before catching up with the $1.3 million "Diamond Crypto Smartphone."
