A company called Digital Group Audio (DGA) has announced that its Livespeakr compact speaker is the “first and only portable speaker system to prove compatible with the Google Nexus One, Palm Pre, Palm Pre Plus and Motorola DROID smartphones.” Now wait a moment?

iTiki is NOT yet another iPhone case, but a deity that protects it?
By now, you’ve probably seen all kinds of iPhone cases, but not something like this. The product is called iTiki, and it’s actually a “South Pacific deity from the north shore of Oahu, Hawaii, who protects iPhones from enemies.” You’ve read that correctly – it’s not just a case but a m/f deity! 🙂 (Hopefully,…
Aliph Jawbone ICON Now Available at TELUS
In Canada, province-wide bans on the use of handheld devices while driving have been popping up left-and-right… and with good reason.

Samsung extends Corby brand to mouse and netbook pouches

Spoof of the day: iPad pants
Ok, you’ve got your iPad but you want to use it outside of your home. Let’s face it – the iPad is not that easy to carry around — it’s not envisioned to be easy to carry around — but you simply gotta show it off. You’re an iPad owner, for God’s sake, and that…
T-Mobile stores stocking Nexus One protective cases. Rebranded T-Mobile N1 to follow soon?
When a wireless carrier starts stocking accessories – like protective cases – for unreleased smartphones, it’s usually a good signal that the handset will soon go on sale through that carrier. T-Mobile USA may still be dealing with fallout from red-hot HTC HD2 sales that have left it struggling to keep up with demand, but…
Motorola H17txt Bluetooth Headset Offers Text to Speech
Motorola has announced a new Bluetooth headset called the H17txt, which has text-to-speech capabilities built in. The MotoSpeak system basically reads your texts messages to you when the headset is turned on, saving you from fiddling with your phone while, say, driving, but in order to work, you need to install a device-side application, which…
