Announced in July, TAG's entry into the pricey-smartphone market, the LINK, has just been relased in Australia with a starting price of a whopping $6400 and yes, one has been 'sold'. The presence of TAG brand ambassador Di Caprio in town on the set of "The Great Gatsby" has lead to the inevitable rumour that he might be the phone's owner. Nothing like a free bit of publicity, is there?

Here it's AUD6,400, but its entry price is listed as 4700 Euros.
If you want to look at the 1007 2.53 carat diamond encrusted version, you can see it at this link. Or if you only want to spend six and a half thousand, here's a video for the entry level version :
The phone comes with built-in mobile security by Kaspersky Lab, which keeps GPS tabs on your expensive phone and both stores and backs up everything in encrypted folders.
This is all very well and good, but does it survive the odd fall? For that much money, I'd hope so.
