The world of iPod docks and accessories is probably never ending. If there were one brave soul who decided to catalog it all, it would be a monumental undertaking that would more than likely be the death of him. Poor guy. There's just so much junk out there. In order to keep your own product from not blending in, you have to be different. Is the Snowflake Speaker different enough?
Sadly, this is nothing more than a concept from the head of designer Sylvain Gerber. But if it were real, w...

The iPhone Jackpot Slot Dock -- Say that five times fast... -- is probably the coolest iPhone accessory I've seen to date. Steering wheels and other handheld controller-cases of sorts are nifty, but this is so much better. On one hand, it's a simple iPhone dock, charging your beloved gadget. On the other, it's a not so covert gambling machine that will extract as much money as possible from your shallow pockets. Either way, it's sweet. The hardware itself will set you back $39.99. Perhaps ...

Don't fear extremely tech savvy older lady, iHome has got you covered!
Yes, you heard right, or if you can see, saw the picture, and you now know that iHome isn't some white or black alarm clock radio thing that you can plop your iPhone/iPod into anymore. It is now the He-Man of bedside gizmos. If you have things that need to be charged, and are cussing the designer of your humble abode for not in...

iPhone docks and cases are a dime a dozen. It takes an increasing amount of creativity and uniqueness to even get me to notice a "new" case/dock these days. The iRetrophone Dock is one such dock.

Do you enjoy jailbreaking your iPhone, installing whatever you want on it, and even skinning it with some god awful Windows theme (there are a few pretty good looking ones actually)? Well open that drawer of interesting things to try out and get ready to stow another option.
If you like the idea of a larger or more accommodating dock but don't like how simply adding more icons distorts the overall visual appeal, "Infinidock" is for you.
The concept is easy. Simply drag and add icons to y...
Charge your iPhone like it’s 1984 with the NES Gun iPhone dock

Back in 1984, cellphones were at their most primitive stages. They weren't cool looking, didn't have fancy shmancy processors like Snapdragon, and most of all, wouldn't even fit in a small to medium sized bag. In the current year of 2009, cellphones/smartphones are now taking over more aspects of our lives as they become miniature computers. Sometimes though it's fun to recapture those "glory days" back when technology was ugly and unsightly.
The current high fashion gadget as most would...

If you're looking at the image above wondering if it's plausible....or even fully working, I can honestly say yes, yes it is. The photo above shows the end result of an old Sega Genesis tear down by Wired's Charlie Sorrel. According to Charlie, their was plenty of room to jam some small speakers inside and make this Japanese Genesis belt out tunes in line with some of the greater iPod docks. But in the end he choose to keep things nice and simple. Hey, I'm simply amazed in wonderment at the ...

The iPhone OS has come quite a ways since 1.0. Besides the often mentioned Cut,Copy, & Paste, many other enhancements both "under the hood" and visual have been implemented. However one feature that has gone wholly unchanged is springboard. Ok, you can swipe far left to reveal spotlight searching. So what. Big whoop. That isn't that big of an update. The kind of update I'm talking about is that of navigating apps and springboard itself. The uber simple individual icon/grid approach that...

One of the main draws to the iPhone is the touchscreen only design making it smaller as well as giving users access to countless keyboards and languages without the need for costly hardware changes. However, some people still want a bit more physical interaction in their lives. Introducing the iTwinge. For those of you who just simply must have something to touch, this little doo dad slips over the bottom half of the iPhone that is normally displaying a keyboard and gives you something a li...
Need some juice? Dino-dock here to save the day!

While novelty flash drives are pretty hot right now, iPhone/iPod docks have their own faithful following. Anything big enough to stuff in a few charging internals for a charging Apple dock is taking over do-it-yourselfers and other tinkers. The latest in the land of creata-a-gadgets comes in the form of a dinosaur iPhone dock. The mod is quite simple actually -- an unsuspecting dinosaur gets his back excavated to in order to accommodate the required charging components. The dino-dock prob...
