Pong cases
From €49.99
iPhone cases are 10 a penny these days, with everything from bottle openers to USB keys finding their way into the multitasking devices. The Pong case is another one that is more than what it seems.
The case claims to cut down on radiation from mobiles and to reduce the drain on your phone battery.
This is all thanks to an antenna built into the case.
Even just looking at it from a protection point of view, the case is a slimline hard shell for your iPhone, providing it with some decent protection against knocks, bumps and scrapes – which makes it worth the investment.

Mimobot Dark knight USB
From $19.99 (€16.53)
USB keys may not be the most interesting gadgets in the world, but theyre definitely useful. Some, however, are more interesting than others.
For example, how could you resist superhero themed ones? Fans of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy can now have the Dark Knight himself guard their files.
And for Comic-Con, Mimobot even produced a limited run of Bane USB keys.

The iCade for the iPad has its fans, thanks to its ability to make it easier to play certain games on the device.
Now Ion has turned its attention to the iPhone and iPod Touch, with a case that adds physical buttons to the device. Like its iPad cousin, the device links to your phone via Bluetooth.
The cradle itself rotates so you can switch with ease between games with a portrait interface and those with a landscape view. It’s got eight action buttons and a D-pad. The list of compatible games is growing, too.
