by Michael Grothaus (Apr 27th, 2012)

Have you ever been out and realized you forgot your wallet just as you were going to pay for something? Bummer, right? And it probably makes you wish that Apple would go ahead and build a mobile payment system into the iPhone -- because you never leave your house without that. Now imagine ...

iPhone case doubles as a Magna Doodle

by Mike Schramm (Apr 16th, 2012)

I think this is great, and I assume that other "children of the '80s" will agree. The iFoolish is a silly name for an iPhone case that's actually got a working Magna Doodle on the back. Sure, they can't use the name, but that's a Magna Doodle all right. A little magnet on a pen that you can use ...

iPad case claims to boost 3G performance, reduce radiation

by Michael Grothaus (Dec 19th, 2011)

Ars Technica has a really interesting article about the fabled proximity sensory in the iPad 3G. I know what you're thinking: "Why does the iPad 3G have a proximity sensor?" Well, if Ars did a proper job at finding and interpreting FCC papers (as I believe they did) it's there to protect users ...

Griffin Survivor is one tough iPhone case

by Mel Martin (Feb 23rd, 2011)

At US$49.99 it costs more that most other cases, but it will likely protect your phone in dire circumstances that would compromise others.

The silly season: No Comment on The iBottleopener

by David Winograd (Aug 31st, 2010)

Now I've seen everything. To give lie to the meme that there's an app for that, perhaps a new and upcoming meme will be that there's a case for that. The iBottleopener (US $19.99) is a case for an iPhone 3G or 3GS that has a bottle opener on the back. The video, that you've probably just ...
