Most Luxurious Spas In The World - Forbes.com

As spa-goers become more sophisticated and better-traveled, they expect more from a spa experience than ever before, and they’re willing to pay for it. The industry generates about $40 billion globally, according to SpaFinder, a New York City-based spa marketing and media company. So spas worldwide are adding private suites, Japanese baths, rain showers and an ever-more-exotic array of treatments, therapies and fitness programs, influenced by everything from the traditions of far-flung cultures to cutting-edge medical technology, in order to stand out, cash in and attract new customers.

You’ve had your current handset since Christmas, and there have been, like, three cooler ones out since then. Should you grab one of those or hold out for these?

Motorola Thins Out The RAZR Line

Motorola’s (Quote, Chart) new line of Razr handsets is slimmer than ever, and the company hopes the they will expand the customer base of its already popular line of cell phones.

The 42-millimeter-wide Krzr (pronounced “crazer”) shaves more than a centimeter off the original Razr, of which Motorola sold more than 50 million units.

Beyond its slimmer size, the Krzr will offer both GSM and CDMA versions, the latter of which includes high-speed EV-DO capabilities.

Featuring a faceplate made of magnesium, chrome and hardened glass, the Krzr also comes with a two mega-pixel camera, stereo Bluetooth audio and updated phone directory and messaging applications.

But don’t set it on your lap - no telling what the more powerful battery might do.

Revving Up Rolls - Forbes.com

With the Phantom Black’s recent introduction, Rolls has shown customers how to give the company’s $333,000 Phantom sedan–the only Rolls-Royce car on the market–a top-notch tailoring.

The company is hand-building 25 Phantom Black models, cars it says “demonstrate the best in Rolls-Royce design, engineering and craftsmanship.”

As the moniker suggests, black is everywhere, beginning with high-luster, metallic “Diamond Black” paint on the exterior. The car’s 21-inch alloy wheels have unique black detailing.

While the engine is the same 6.8-liter V-12 you will find on normal Phantoms, it comes with glossy black components, as well as chrome-plated top covers and black Rolls-Royce badges.

Inside, the soft, black leather upholstery is edged with “Seashell” piping. Rolls uses black ash wood veneers throughout the cabin, which are dark in finish but still allow the natural grain to show through.

A black leather headliner tops the cabin, and a silver pinstripe adorns each door capping. The dashboard has black metal foil with a finely embossed diamond pattern. The steering wheel has a slightly thicker rim than that of the regular Phantom.

The Phantom Black is as exclusive as a car can be. Of the 25 Rolls-Royce is producing, only nine are headed for the U.S.
