Noreve iPhone 3G Diamond Pouch is Perfect for the Insanely Rich

Posted in Mobile Accessories by Shane McGlaun on August 11th, 2008

Noreve iPhone 3G Diamond PouchThere is no shortage of insanely expensive gadgets and accessories for the wealthy geek that feels the need to show off. The catch is that some of the really expensive handsets — like the Vertu Signature — can show off how rich you are, but really don’t offer much in the way of cool features and usability.

What if you are one of the really rich types that wants a phone that actually works well — like the iPhone 3G — but the iPhone just isn’t expensive enough for you? You could go with the iPhone 3G and then swath it in the most expensive iPhone 3G accessory ever — the $15,000 Noreve Diamond Case.

Steve Jobs bobblehead iPhone dock: Steve is watching you

Steve Jobs bobblehead iPhone dock: Steve is watching you
Somewhat like god, it seems that Steve Jobs is always around in some form. Some guy wasn’t content with his iPhone dock, so this bobblehead sculptor created this interesting looking iPhone dock that features a super-detailed Steve Jobs, so detailed it’s as if he is giving a keynote speech.

Just watch him watching you, talk to him now and then while you are charging(He’ll nod. He’s really listening). He really looks like he has an important announcement to make about an upcoming product that he knows you’ll overpay for. You know he’s still looking a little thin too, especially next to the iPhone.

Apple to stream your iTunes to your iPhone?

Apple to stream your iTunes to your iPhone?
Not sure how much we are willing to believe this, but AppleInsider has found a patent that apparently shows music over the internet streaming to your iPhone and iPod touch. You wouldn’t have to sync content to your device. Instead, you’d sync only the metadata and stream whatever you wanted direct from your computer. Like i said, we aren’t sure if we’re buying this just yet, but it’s interesting. My guess is that there may be just a smidgen of truth to this, but we’re missing some kind of important piece of info. While you’re waiting on this, get an iPhone arm.

The iPhone arm is a handy accessory

I thought this was mildly funny. And true. These people hate the iPhone. Though I’m sure some of you will want to arm yourself with this handy accessory. Enjoy.

Skullcandy Pipe iPod/iPhone dock looks like a sawed off bone

Posted in iPhone Accessories by Conner Flynn on August 6th, 2008

Skullcandy Pipe iPod/iPhone dock looks like a sawed off boneSkullcandy has an interesting and strange new, even somewhat biological looking iPod/iPhone dock called “Pipe”. It looks like a pipe. It also looks like a sawed off femur that’s been aged. Perfect for the coroner or surgeon that likes to have his music on hand and be reminded of his craft at the same time.

It features a clever little plus and minus button on front which I’m sure you can figure out, comes with a remote and the skull logo is on the side. Looks like it would make a good weapon too, which is a bonus. Or a baton for practicing relay races. All this can be yours for $90.

iPhone 3G solar charging case

iPhone 3G solar charging case
The iPhone 3G does a whole lot more than its predecessor, and that means that the battery is going to drain much faster. All of those cool new apps will also suck up the juice. The iPhone 3G Solar Charging Case will offer some protection for your iPhone 3G and also has a built-in solar panel that will collect the sun’s rays and turn them into electricity.

Power is stored in a 1,500mAh battery that will give your phone a full charge. Recharge time is about 3 hours. It may not be the most beautiful of iPhone cases, but it’s a good option for those who are thinking green with their gadgets. The price is $54, while the sun’s rays are free.

iPhone 3G: Now in technicolor

iPhone 3G: Now in technicolor
When gadgets need colors, who ya gonna call? Colorware of course. I know one thing, the iPhone 3G is in desperate need of a colorful upgrade.

For the price of $150, Colorware will give your iPhone 3G some color on it’s backside. For an extra $20 more, you can customize the button and frame. You’ll have a colorful iPhone sure, but when you factor in the price, your 3G will have cost you $150 more. Doh! It actually looks pretty pleasing in a lime and red and blue…

Olympic iPhone, for some reason

Posted in iPhone by Conner Flynn on July 30th, 2008

Olympic iPhone, for some reason
The summer Olympics are starting in about a week. If you desire an Olympic iPhone to commemorate the occasion, you’re in luck. It comes decked out with 88 diamonds and the retail price is an insane $8,224.

It’s not as expensive as the Amosu iPhone 3G, but every bit as ridiculous. I hope these come with insurance against getting mugged because you are a rich douche. I guess when your money finally runs out you can always pawn one of it’s 88 diamonds for some cash.

iPhone Power Station gives you more sweet iJuice

Posted in iPhone Accessories by Conner Flynn on July 26th, 2008

iPhone Power Station
The iPhone power station from Brando elongates your iPhone much like the iPhoneneck, while at the same time giving you some emergency juice should your battery get low. The LED blink lights look pretty neat, with an arrow pointing to your phone, just in case you can’t figure out where it goes for some reason.

No info on how much of a charge it gives your iPhone, but I’m guessing not much since they mention “1000mAh”. It will cost you $25.

Amosu Ultimo Diamond: World’s most expensive iPhone

Posted in iPhone by Conner Flynn on July 26th, 2008

Amosu Ultimo Diamond: World’s most expensive iPhone
You thought your iPhone was expensive, but what you paid is nothing compared to what the Amosu Ultimo Diamond supposedly retails for. That would be a wallet stunning $177,300. The high price tag is thanks to the 1,179 diamonds that are encrusted everywhere, 16.18 carats.

It may be expensive, but at least each purchase comes with access to the international all-day VIP-service Concierge (VIP International Concierge Service) for a year. Should probably come with a limo and a butler as well.

iPhone Voice Recognition coming soon

Posted in iPhone by Conner Flynn on July 23rd, 2008

iPhone Voice Recognition coming soon
Those wanting voice recognition for their iPhone may be in luck soon. AT&T has been working on a web-based platform called Speech Mashups. It works like this. The platform sends your speech to a remote server, translating commands to control your handset. Since it’s web-based, other devices aside from the iPhone will be able to use the technology as well.

It will be compatible with most browser-equipped AT&T handsets, wireless devices and even TV set-top boxes. You just need an Internet connection. One downside with the iPhone is that Speech Mashup can’t perform voice-dialing because it is compatible with web-coded apps only. Still, it’s a fascinating development.

Posted in Monster by Shane McGlaun on July 23rd, 2008

Beats by Dr. Dre HeadphonesWay back in January at CES 2008 we first heard of the Beats by Dr. Dre headphones from Monster. The headphones promised new technology that would bring sound quality to headphones that was not previously seen in consumer grade products. The catch was the price was right at $400.

Monster has announced that the Beats by Dr. Dre headphones will be available on July 25 and will be exclusive to the Apple store and Best Buy. The headphones are being aimed squarely at users of the iPhone and iPhone 3G as well as iPods.
