Gearing up for New Gadgets
It’s that time of year again. Just like every other industry, phone and gadget companies have released, or are planning on releasing, the newest gadgets that their technology teams have been working hours on for you to play with when you get bored. Apple recently placed the new 4G iPhone on the market, with Motorola closely following with its new Droid X to be sold in stores starting July 15th. Earlier this year, Google launched its new phone, the Google Nexus One, and Blackberry even contributed with a release of the Essex in early June. Amidst all these new gadgets that offer anything from an App that helps you decide what to eat to expanded wireless internet coverage to check Facebook at all hours, the one thing that still holds true is the dire need to accessorize and protect your new (or old) gadget.
Try this OtterBox cover for your older edition 3G iPhone that has a triple layer of protection. With a film cover for the screen, a silicone interior and a plastic exterior of the shell, you will be nothing less than assured that your gadget is safe from various sidewalk curbs, pot-holed pavement, and staircases that may jump in front of you. OtterBox also offers durable cases for Blackberry, Nokia, and Samsung among others.
Try on this sleek leather iPod/cell phone holder that adds a bold color statement to any attire without spending an entire paycheck. The clip on the back comes in handy for anytime holding your phone is too much or when finding your phone in your bag would take hours to find, even when using a GPS tracker and a flashlight.
For those of us that don’t want a clip on our beltĀ and really only base our shopping decisions on how pretty the color is, check out the Phone Pod by Hadaki. It comes in six bright colors and it’s eco-friendly. Not only will it look cute clipped in your purse, you can brag to all your friends about how your saving the environment with your cell phone.
All artists will love this cell phone case by Nahui Ollin that combines an array of colors and designs with a weaved look that would be a hit at the next Metropolitan Museum of Art fashion gala. The case delivers beauty and sophistication similar to any Picasso painting, that could easily be appreciated as a piece of art that doubles as a phone case.
For individuals that enjoy keeping all of their belongings in their sight, this Baggallini phone/PDA case will not disappoint. The strap ensures that your phone will not be subjected to collision with other objects, as it would in a large bag, nor will it be snatched by a shady passerby looking for a free, new phone.
Keep everything you need in one place with this Clava Wellie cell phone wallet. Despite its petite build, this baby has enough pockets, zippers and snaps to hold your phone, several cards, some cash and spare change securely. We suspect that a circus might also be hiding in there, but we have yet to finish examining it.
So while teams of intelligent people are coming up with new gadgets that are coming closer and closer to reading our minds, you can look amazing with a new case or protector just like these from ShoeBuy.com that will ensure that your expensive new toy doesn’t break – at least until a newer and better version is released.
