Une Bobine: A Bendy Dock On A Flexible Stand

May 09, 2012/ Bobby Zhang

If the classic Apple docks are just too plain and simple for you, then FuseChicken’s Une Bobine is a great replacement for your iPhone docking needs. Simply stick it on the dock and bend the cable whichever way and angle you please. It also acts as a fantastic stand since you can manipulate it to fit all of your needs; placing it in front of you or in landscape mode lets you have a much more comfortable viewing angle.

This Kickstarter project has exceeded its funding goal and will be available for shipping around 2 months from now. If you can’t wait to get your hands on one of these, you can pledge $25 on Kickstarter to preorder this unique accessory.

Red Pop Grip Adds A Physical Camera Shutter Button To iPhone 4

June 05, 2011/ Nir Schneider

Beep Industries, the same guys that brought you the super simple MoviePeg stand for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, are bringing back the physical shutter release button with their new accessory called the Red Pop for the iPhone 4. Well it isn't really going to bring back any physical shutter release button to iPhone 4 but you get the idea. The Red Pop adds a big red button to your iPhone 4 that acts as the camera shutter button and allowing you to take shots like you would with any other camera more easily and with less downtime between shots, all without touching the screen. Red Pop will only work with the free Red Pop app and will automatically launch as soon as the Red Pop is connected to the iPhone 4 via the dock connector. Beep Industries are looking to expand compatibility with other camera apps as well.

The body of the Red Pop is made out of aluminum with a black rubber grip. It's currently available to pre-order for $75 on Kickstarter. Catch the video after the jump.

Boost Your iPad 2's Sound With The SoundJaw

May 30, 2011/ Nir Schneider

One thing Apple hates and will never do is place a speaker on the front of their portable handheld devices such as the iPhone and the iPad. The iPad 2 suffers more than any other Apple product because of its badly placed speaker. SoundJaw was created to fix the iPad 2's back firing speaker and works by redirected the sound towards you. The result is a much louder and richer sound. The slim design of the SoundJaw adds little to no bulk and clips to surround your iPad 2's speaker. If you've been redirected your iPad 2's sound with just your hand like me so you can actually hear something, it would be safe to say that we both could use a SoundJaw. $20 is going to get you one of these over at kickstarter. See the SoundJaw in action right after the jump.
