Sure, the iPhone is capable of playing full-length movies… but what’s the point? Mr. Perfect isn’t so perfect when it comes to the right ergonomics for watching your favorite flicks. That’s where the iPhone Theater comes in. It’s a headphone/phone holder combo with a slightly steampunk aesthetic. I chuckled a little too… but it’s actually pretty awesome! I don’t care how many looks I get… I waaaaants it!

As a proud user of the 27” iMac I can totally resonate with the idea of hating clutter and wires on my desk. When you have a beautified station with wireless keyboards, wireless mouse and Bluetooth headphones, a handy charging iPhone Dock with wires can mar the aesthetics. Unless you pick the OCDock, a hub to charge your device in the neatest possible way, using your iMac of course! Have a look….

In honor of Shankar, NPR has collected the five recordings you must know from “West Meets East”…

When it comes to iPhone accessories, the Lumawake breaks expectations, blowing other dock designs out of the water both aesthetically and functionally! Why functionally? Well, to say it charges just barely scratches the surface – it also tracks sleeping patterns, integrates with home theaters, has an open API for developers to develop compatible software, and waaaay more! Hit the jump to see all the specs!
FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS:
Tracking & Reporting– Monitors and reports sleep patterns daily, allowing people to adjust their daily schedules to optimize restorative sleep.
Simulated Sunrise – Multicolor LED lighting gradually illuminates beginning at the preset wake window. Light falling on the eyes before a wake event has been proven to increase energy hormones preparing the body to wake naturally.
Smart Wake Technology – Using motion sensors and a complex algorithm, Lumawake was designed to wake users at the optimal time in their sleep cycle, helping to wake you feeling refreshed and energized.
Non-Contact – Unlike competitors, Lumawake does not require you to leave your phone on the bed or wear headbands or wristbands.
Easy of Use – Lights up as you approach so you never have to fumble for the charger in the dark. One handed docking, works with any generation iPhone and with any case.
Home Automation System Integration – Seamlessly integrated with home automation systems like Belkin’s WebMo and SmartThings to do things like automatically turn the lights and television off after you’ve fallen asleep, then open blinds and brew coffee the moment you wake up.
Fully Customizable – Users can easily create custom notifications using the LEDs and can change setting and/or turn off any features they wish using the free app.
Compatibility across all generation iPhone’s and iPod Touches is achieved through swappable modules making upgrades painless
Open API – Developers can create apps with Lumawake hardware: Microprocessor, Motion sensors, Multicolor LED’s

Designer Moon Myounghak has made a lovely effort in a very real way (conceptual on the verge of reality) in creating a case that allows the iPhone to become a touchkey phone. WIth the keys this case creates for the iPhone, you’ve got a very physical set of keys accented by a touchscreen that contains five icons across. In other words, this wouldn’t be allowed by Apple as it stands here, but with a hacked iPhone you’d have gold.
Have a peek at what this physical case with real physical buttons would bring you and your iPhone and let us know – would you do it? Do you desire the physical set of keys of yesteryear to keep the iPhone linked to the past? Or could you never, ever keep away from the full touchscreen experience?

The iPhone is good for a lot of things, but movies… not so much! The Big Screen concept enhances the video capabilities of the iPhone by using a thin Fresnel lens at the front to magnify whatever is playing on the screen. The angle of the device instantly positions the phone and screen at a comfortable viewing angle. Even though touch screen functionality is disabled, side openings provide access to the volume and home buttons.

The Fliptype iPhone case allows users to not only see the keys they are typing, but feel them as well! The translucent, tactile keyboard provides an additional sensory element to typing that users transitioning from Blackberry (or maybe just those with big fingers!) will appreciate. The flippable typing strap can also be easily tucked away at the back of the case when not in use.
