Sergey Brin, solar phone user

Oh Sergey, those billions are serving you well. You're the first kid on your block to use a solar-powered cellphone, and not some crappy solar charger? Ok, we'd wager his phone isn't entirely solar-powered, but interesting to note that when you're worth as much as this guy, it's pretty easy to save pennies here and there by spending thousands on a phone that runs from the sun's rays. We also forgot what large hands those billions can buy you, too.

Large and shiny hands -- that's quite the lens flare coming off the tip of his middle finger.

Looks like it'a a solar battery pack on a Sony Ericsson P900/P910 smartphone... I just wish I had one!

Something is seriously wrong with that hand's nails. It looks like the hand from Saw II's movie poster or something...

That guy has a massive hand. Solar phones won't be much use after a day in your pocket.

I was focused on the gross, ragged, protruding nails on the fingers. So the horridly grotesque thumb escaped me until just now. OH MY GOD. That thumb is evil. It is the Thumb of Death. That last digit is not human.

We will give him a free mobile phone of course it will be free of solar power.
