GelaSkins Brings Tim Burton to Your iPhones, Laptops

GeekSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:43:47 -0800

Even if you didn't get to party with Tim Burton himself on Tuesday night for the unveiling of his career-spanning collection of art in NYC, you can still go check out the goods at the MoMA, and now can don your iPhone or laptop in his work as well. GelaSkins is known for their huge selection of artist-inspired gadget skins, and have plucked the artwork right out of Burton's "The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories" and handed it to us in a collection called Tragic Toys for Girls and Boys.

The iPhone skins will set you back $15, and the Laptop skins start at $30, but seems like a deal if you're a Burton fangirl, or just adore his creepy-cute art, like I do.

Your iPhone and iPod Touch Just Got a Little Classier

Although you only get two options when choosing an iPhone (even less if you're picking up an iPod Touch), you can always express your individuality with a case. I've got plenty of options for you, but if you're looking for something with a little more sizzle, a little more class if you will, check out these slim-fitting Blink Cases ($20-$25).

These sleek and shiny cases hug the curves of your iPhone or iPod Touch without adding bulk and weight to your pocket. And even though they look like a million bucks, they don't cost a fortune. Coming in four different shades to match your sophisticated taste, Blink cases also come correct with a mirrored face plate so you can touch up your lip gloss or smooth out those perfectly placed waves in your hair. Oh, behave.

I love dressing my iPhone for the season with a cute themed case - and this one is definitely the cutest I've seen in a while! Just in time for Halloween, the Monster iPhone Cover ($35) comes in two fuzzy colors: red and black. The case closes with velcro and has a hole for headphones.

How cute are the big googly eyes and vinyl fangs? The tough part isfiguring out which festive Halloween-themed case to use!

Gorillapod Mobile Turns Your Cell Into a Steady Cam

I've already told you the amazing benefits to owning a Gorillapod - the tripod that attaches to most anything with its bendable, flexible legs and small to large sizes for your point-and-shoot or SLRs - and now the Gorillapod Mobile turns your mobile device into a take-anywhere-shoot-anywhere camera.

You could say I'm turning into an iPhone paparazzi with how many photos I've taken with the on-board camera, so toting this tiny and portable tripod would make including myself into the snapshot even easier. Just like the original Gorillapod, the legs can contort around almost any object, turning a mundane stop sign into the ultimate steady hand for your pics. And since the Gorillapod Mobile uses a suction cup to hold your mobile to the pod, it won't leave any sticky messes behind.

A Travel Blanket That Comes With a Gadget Storage Pouch

I would love to find out how many iPods and cell phones airlines find each year on their planes. I mean seriously, as soon as you sit down on a plane, you get your "zone" all pimped out with some magazines and your iPod or cell phone sticking out of the seat pocket in front of you. Next thing you know, you get off the plane and your beloved iPod is wedged so far in that seat pocket, you wouldn't have spotted it if you had tried.

And do you like to stay nice and cozy as well? I for one was not a happy camper when airlines got rid of complimentary blankets for those riding in economy. Well for $28, this Blue Travel Set solves your iPod vanishing issues with its built-in pocket for your cell phone or iPod and it also keeps you nice and warm while flying high in the sky.

Cheap and Chic: 4 Cute and Affordable iPhone Cases

Blame the pricing or mainstream status, but more and more people are buying a new iPhone, especially women. My girlfriends and female family members have been consulting me about their new phones, and the first question is always about what apps they need (got that covered). The second question? Where to find a good, but still attractive, case. Check out some of my favorites that look great without costing as much as the device.

Griffin is spicing it up for Summer with its limited edition Elan Form cases! These red and white protective shells come in two pieces - the first is made of leather to keep your iPhone stylin' and the second is made of polycarbonate to protect the goods. They maybe aren't as eccentric as the metallic Kate Spade case, but they sure are eye-catching. You can even pick one up for the fourth generation iPod nano. All Elan Form cases cost $30 each.

Trexta iPhone and Laptop Accessories Sex Up Macworld

GeekSugar — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 10:00:13 -0800

My Macworld adventure continues! When I wasn't looking at hardware, I had my eyes peeled for new, stylish accessories. My favorite booth at Macworld was Trexta, a company specializing in sleek, sexy leather pieces for iPhones, iPods, and laptops.

Most of the leather accessories I end up with are ordered online, so I never get to see them and more importantly, feel, the grain and tell if it's a quality product. I've been disappointed more than once, but Trexta's stuff - in soft, buttery leather and patent leather (which I rarely see in peripheral accessories) would not let me down.

Trexta's booth reps didn't have pricing info yet, but don't worry - I'm on the lookout for these when they become available.
