A prototype was shown back in March, now Eurogamer some more information on this little bundle of Gold including a release date which is sceduled for the Christmas season.

It's made out of a whole pound of gold - that's nearly half a kilo, metric fans - and is adorned with alligator skin and yellow and black diamonds.

"Kimora and I are invested in jewellery with M. Fabrikant & Sons, the number one jeweller in America. We have made lots of interesting fun stuff," Russ told Allhiphop.

But, as every billionaire hip hop mogul knows, it's all about giving something back: "Much of the profits will go back to Africa," he said.

"I'm pushing for factories and schools in Africa so people can make their own jewellery and learn how to export them."

All the diamonds sold by the Simmons Jewellery Company are inspected to ensure they are "conflict free", according to Simmons. In addition, a portion of his profits will go to communities affected by the diamond trade.

[Mad scientists, bling rockers and dev staff are sitting around a table looking for a regular item that they can cover in diamonds, gold and if possible - spinning rims]

Scientist: I've got it - lets take a boxy, uncomfortable portable with sharp edges and cover it in gold and diamonds to make it even boxier, even sharper and even more uncomfortable but now it blings :cool:

Russell Simmons: Yeah, yeah, yeah - cool...Whatever, as long as the morons keep buying it and making me rich its a go.

wow that case is so ugly I'd rather use the money to buy two Hyundai cars, which also are butt ugly but a bit more useful.
