SendStation has a new handy accessory for all iPhone and iPod users out there. It’s called PocketDock Line Out Mini USB, and it allows your Apple hardware to sing along mini USB. Moreover, it also offers additional line-out jack, which is either ultra-handy (so that two people could listen to the same music) or is…
Video: iBand from Tech21 may be the only iPhone case you’ll ever need; survives nuclear holocaust
The audio may be a bit quite on this video, and it may be a bit long for your ADD self at over 6 minutes, but don’t let that stop you from hitting play and being absolutely bloody amazed at what these guys have created. Ben first told IntoMobile readers about the iBand about 2…
Update: The five-minute fiddle: Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket for iPhone
A while back now in April 2009, I was given some Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket (FMJ-11) headphones, following the Gadget Show Live (see here). I reviewed them after a five-minute fiddle, and initial impressions were that they are very good indeed – but what about after a quarter of a year of use? Well, ongoing…
Study: 2009 Mobile Accessory Market Valued at $63 Billion
A recent study of some 1000 mobile phone owners revealed that consumers spend on average $60 on accessories over the lifetime of their phone, primarily spent on chargers, but cases, batteries and memory cards were also popular choices. Predictably, the younger, sub-40 crowd was more prone to pick up accessories at the time of handset…
Reminder: UK: DSL Developments
Having written a piece that mentioned getting car mounts fitted today (here), I thought I’d just reflect back to the time when we had one fitted to our other car, and the kerfuffle we had in getting the right bits. Specifically, I wanted an active mount for the iPhone that would allow it to be…
Jabra Launches Halo Stereo Bluetooth Headset, Confuses Gamers
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear about a Jabra Halo Bluetooth Headset? If you’re in any way familiar with the Halo video game franchise, the mention of a Halo headset probably conjures up images of sticky grenades and Needlers. You’d probably also think that Jabra made a stereo Bluetooth headset…
Duracell myGrid does wireless charging too!
Wireless charging? Yes, please. Where do I sign up? Being an iPhone user, I have yet to get my hands on a WildCharge wireless charging dock for iPhone. But, it looks like I may not have to wait for WildCharge to get my magnetically-induced charging fix, if Duracell has anything to say about it. The…
Neat-o: Iqua Smart Badge Bluetooth Headset
I’m happy. Occasionally, we get through innovative takes on mobile gadgetry, and this I think of one of them. OK, it does addresses the business user market segment more squarely, but who would have thought combining a passcard holder and Bluetooth holder could be such a good idea?! Well that’s exactly what IQUA have done,…
UK: Is this charger a wind-up? Yes!
MobileFun have just sent me details through of an innovative charger for mobile devices – utilising the power of the wrist (oops, better be careful here), it also packs a torch inside too! Environmentally friendly and money saving, it’s both compact and tough. A solid ergonomic design and powerful internal dynamo make this is an…
UK: eXpansys: Elan Digital Systems Mobidapter
I like crossover gadgets – those that are able to bridge one or two uses, and make a good fist of it at the same time – that’s why I was really interested to see the Elan System Mobidapter, being retailed by eXpansys. The device works like a vampire USB stick, sucking the files off…
