Engagement ring for when geekdom and love meet

We've seen plenty of kitschy gadgets covered in Swarovski crystals, diamonds, and other precious stones, and apparently, the bling phase we're painfully going through is far from being over. A young designer has taken a cue from the Philips/Swarovski collaboration that brought us the Active Crystals USB Memory and created her own blinding Swarovski crystal concept ring.

The Swarovski Crystal Engagement Ring is a USB device that can store photos, poems, music, or other personal media you want to carry with you and share with others. Information can be transferred between rings or to a computer with the help of the accompanying play necklace that features a USB port, a mini-USB port, and two sharing ports. According to designer Jennifer Flume, once the necklace is plugged into a computer, it acts as a network hub for multiple USB devices. I don't mind the idea of USB jewelry, but an USB engagement ring for geeks is a bit much.
