Vertu Concierge
The concierge service from Vertu is well publicized and talked about, and a similar service is also available from Amosu, an luxury phone customizer (the website is thin on details). The service is available 24/7 in Russian and English, and has extended service hours in Chinese. 1st year of the service is complimentary with a new phone, and subsequent years costs GBP950 (~$1875) for a basic service and GBP3000 (~$5925) and higher for a personalized service.
Vertu Fortress
Vertu Fortress is a new service with the Ascent Ti (released late 2007) where Contacts, Calendar Entries, Notes, and Tasks are saved on a server "in an military underground bunker in the heart of the English Countryside."
Other applications
According to Sybarites, the Ascent Ti (and Constellation) also includes "the WorldMate program that converts currency, monitors weather, tracks flights and displays time zones. It is also the first Vertu to include games with Golf and Backgammon games on the phone."
Vertu is slowly but surely moving away from being a "cheap phone in an expensive case" to a full service that offers things that a busy executive may want. The premium car industry has also moved this way with concierge services available on both the Mercedes and BMW vehicles.
