While this year’s Formula One season has come to an end, the next season is approaching. We’re not interested in what FIA is going to do with the new engine rules but we’re rather keen on checking out LG’s Formula One special edition handset. If there’s ever going to be created! We don’t have the exact details yet but we know that LG has reached an agreement with F1. LG’s Chief Marketing Officer, Dermont Boden said that LG is “looking to develop products in the future with Formula One.” Other F1 themed LG products might be created to and we might not have a handset at all!

We’ve seen a special limited Nokia N96 edition being launched this summer and now we have another special edition of this Nokia phone. This one is dedicated to Bruce Lee. Remember him?
The phone comes with a figurine but unfortunately it’s available in China only. This N96 cost $1286, but when it comes to Bruce Lee I guess some people would pay any price.

Motorola launched the A1600 a few months ago, in August, and today they have added a new version of the A1600 on their Chinese website. Believe it or not, this is a gold edition that probably costs a lot, the exact price is unknown but it should top the value of 6 cellphones.
Anyhow, if you love and want luxury, it can’t get better than this. The only difference between the original Motorola A1600 and this special edition, is the name + color + material used + price. All the other features, such as GPS navigation, 3-megapixel camera, and microSD slot, are also part of the Gold A1600.

HP is trying to reinvent itself or what? I guess all PC manufacturers should be getting their act together and come up with some new models right about now. The Mac special event is due to arrive and I’m sure a lot of people would want a new Mac no matter if they end up buying one or not.
HP has launched two new special edition laptops. The dv4t and the dv5t. The first has a 14.1 inch with WXGA panel, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, a NVIDIA 512MB GeForce 9200M GS, a Core 2 Duo processor of your liking, up to 400GB of HDD space, WiFi and WWAN and an integrated HDTV hybrid tuner. The dv5t has a 15.4 inch LCD, GMA4500MHD integrated graphics, Blu-ray besides what you’ve already read about the dv4t.
What’s special about these two laptops? I guess it must be the fancy design, right? Pricing starts at $1,099.99 for the dv4t and at $949 for the dv5t.

To commemorate the working woman and a successful feature film at the same time, Sony Ericsson has launched a special edition “Sex and the City” W350i cell phone. While it may not have the same vivacity of Ms. Parker, this limited production W350i still manages to look alluring in ivory white and comes with a memory card loaded with the movie’s OST, three wallpapers, and the video song, “Labels or Love” by Fergie. Other specs still remain ho-hum with a 1.9-inch 128×160-pixel display, GPRS support, a 1.3-megapixel camera, and dedicated music controls on the front flap. Look for it by this year end at an undisclosed price.

The question is not if you have seen The Dark Knight already, Batman Begins’ sequel, which grossed over $400 million in less than three week, but how many times have you seen it so far?
In case you are a Batman fan you might want to treat yourself with this XBox 360 special edition with The Dark Knight logos all over the black case. We don’t know how many similar units are out there and how much one costs, but hopefully more are going to be manufactured. I simply know a couple of guys that would certainly get one for themselves.
