The bidding for 'A piece of cardboard (shaped a bit like an iPhone 5)- USED' has been stopped at £200,100 by eBay.

Why I'm Not Buying The iPhone 5, And Why You'd Be Wise Not To Too
A year ago, the feverish anticipation built up for the latest Apple conference proved unsubstantiated. With many expecting the long-awaited unveil of the iPhone 5, the reveal of a slightly-updated iPhone 4 with voice assistant Siri meant many were left a little cheated. As is tradition, sales told a different story, with consumers lapping up the 4S in droves despite such minute changes over its predecessor. Tomorrow, the cycle starts up again.
iPhone 5 'Shatters' 4S Sales Record, Tops 2 Million Sales In 24 Hours
We knew it'd break records, AT&T confirmed as much earlier today, but even so we weren't quite ready for the frankly astounding sales figures Apple quotes the iPhone 5 took within its first 24 hours up for pre-order.

Apple have officially announced the next generation of the iPhone, fortunately sticking to the product numbering logic set by the previous four iterations with the name 'iPhone 5.'
Goophone i5: The iPhone 5 Is Already Being Cloned In China
It's fair to say that we've seen a fair few mobile devices from China that far surpass the idea of shameless copying beyond anything that Samsung has ever infringed upon. This definitely takes it to an all new level, as before any official announcement of marketing of the upcoming iPhone 5 has occured, an Android clone has been made in the Far East.
Some Men Willing To Give Up Sex For An iPhone 5
Anticipation for the iPhone 5 is at fever pitch. The release is rumoured to be just a month away; but what would you give up to get your hands on it? Turns out that one in eleven men would be willing to go celibate for a month if it meant getting the long awaited smartphone before the release date.

iPhone 5 Photos Show Off Taller Screen, Mini Dock, Metallic Back
The launch of the Samsung Galaxy S3 might well mean we now have our hands on what the Korean company behind it label as the best smartphone currently at market, but that doesn’t mean for one second the iPhone 5 rumour mill doesn’t also get us all hot under the collar. The next-generation iPhone is still the phone of the year and, judging by these images publicised by website 9 To 5 Mac of what they believe to be the new white and black versions of the handset, it’s going to be one hell of a looker.
‘Feel Me’ App Adds Personal Touch To Texting
Compared to the likes of a phonecall or skype conversation (see or hear the person's emotions), beyond emoticons it's been a difficult task to convey that same human contact in a text. That's where Marco Triverio plans to change things with 'Feel Me.'
Siri Silenced. Updated To Not Say Lumia 900 Is 'Best Smartphone Ever'
It's common knowledge that Apple has a rather dry, sarcastic sense of humour when it comes to some of the responses that their automated assistant, Siri, gives to the user. But it seems they weren't a fan of the assistant's Wolfram-reliant response to the question "What is the best smartphone ever?"
So they have changed it rather rapidly from the original answer of the Nokia Lumia 900 to one of two sarcastic responses: "the one you're holding" and "you're kidding, right?"
Grove Leather Back Review
In the grand scheme of phone cases, it would seem natural to assume that a stick-on leather back for a phone would seem rather pointless. An all-round needless accessory of style over substance that sacrifices too much of its protective qualities.
But in the case of the Grove Leather Back, this is where you'd think incorrectly.
An Interview With Ken Tomita: Co-Founder Of Grove
In a sea of smartphone case mediocrity, a search for something that doesn't make your phone look worse is a perilous one that rarely ends in a solution. The end-product results fall into one of two categorys: a case with such a sheer determination for protection that the look and feel of materials isn't taken into consideration whatsoever, or an attempt to remain as inconspicuous as possible, which inevitably backfires due to a subpar design ethic.
That is where Grove comes in.
How Tech Companies Are Turning Planned Obsolescence Into Planned Success
Planned obsolescence is far from a new idea in the world of consumer electronics – GM Motors were the first to introduce it to us in the 1920s, home-owners have been cursing the life-cycle of their washing machines ever since – but it’s becoming ever more of a distraction, at least for myself, where yearly release schedules contradict the hyperbole that works its way around the tech world, immediately following a press conference for the next big thing. Technology is no longer built to last.
BubbleScope And BubblePix Hands On
Panoramic photography has always had its difficulties. There's always the strong likelihood that you may go too fast or too slow in one of the shot frames, leaving for an unwanted deformation of the picture. Then there's the sight of a person spinning in one spot, looking like a fool and visually demonstrating just what you look like doing the same.
Well that's not a problem now, thanks to the Bubblescope.
Five Charged In Case Of Boy Who Sold Kidney For iPhone
A surgeon and four others have been charged for illegal organ trading in China following an illicit transplant operation which took place last year on a teenage high-school student, who since has been taken critically ill and is suffering from kidney failure. But this is no ordinary case of illegal organ harvesting: the 17-year old high school student was propositioned to undergo the surgery on an online chat room and had intended to use his profits from selling one of his kidneys to buy, and we're not making this up, an iPhone and iPad.
'Stalking' App 'Girls Around Me' Pulled From The App Store
Despite a supposedly rigorous, rigid and reliable approval process employed to maintain the quality, security and legality of applications within its App Store, a mobile app that we have no reservations in calling a stalker's best friend has only just been pulled from Apple's store – and not even at the request of Apple itself.
