PlugBug

Consolidate chargers with this smart solution from Twelve South
Plug_Bug1.jpg

Apple’s portable devices have become increasingly ubiquitous, with people stockpiling laptops, iPhones and iPods that seem to outnumber the world’s available power outlets. The PlugBug by Twelve South—essentially a splitter for the iPad/iPhone charger to attach to the Macbook plug for a streamlined, two-device charging operation—solves a common shortage conundrum.

Plug_Bug2.jpg Plug_Bug3.jpg

A wall outlet provides a more powerful charge than the computer’s USB, so with the PlugBug your device battery will replenish faster, freeing you from the tether of plugging in and allowing for maximum mobility. PlugBug lets both gadgets charge at maximum capacity simultaneously and, because the design consolidates chargers, you’ll only ever need one plug. No need to charge your Mac? PlugBug can be used on its own as well. It’s a tidy solution to stay organized and powered-up on the go. Available for $35 at Twelve South online.

Zombie Snow White Macbook Decal

The quintessential Disney princess gets a morbid makeover

ZombieSW-1.jpg ZombieSW-2.jpg

While looking for a way to jazz up my plain white Macbook, I came across this zombified Snow White sticker. And what is she holding? The infamous Apple logo, of course! Being an undead enthusiast, I ordered on on the spot.

ZombieSW-3.jpg ZombieSW-4.jpg

The sticker is made of die-cut pressure-sensitive adhesive vinyl and eco-solvent inks. It is easily applied and removed and can be ordered in any size to fit your laptop, iPad, iPod or iPhone perfectly. For those who don’t like their Disney princesses undead, but still want a twist on the original, Snow White is available in “goth” guise as well. The decals are priced from $7-$20 depending on the device, and can be purchased on Etsy.


Seagate GoFlex Satellite

A WiFi-enabled hard drive serving computers and mobile devices alike
wireless-satellite1.jpg

Launching today, the new GoFlex Satellite wireless hard drive from Seagate enables users to wirelessly stream movies, music, photos, and documents directly to their mobile device or computer. While the drive comes with a companion app, it also works seamlessly through any web browser. Five hundred GB of storage, up to five hours of streaming battery life and the ability to serve content to multiple connected devices at once make this hard drive great for families and workgroups alike.

The beauty of the GoFlex Satellite is that it creates its own Wi-Fi network, so there’s no outside internet source required, allowing users to connect to their media wherever they may find themselves. Just set your network to “GoFlex Satellite” and type in any URL to be automatically redirected to the GoFlex Satellite media browser, once there you’re set to browse all of your media freely. Plus, with a range of 150 feet, you’re welcome to move about freely without being tethered to the satellite itself.

To help make everything run more smoothly Seagate offers a free app for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. The GoFlex Media app makes for an easy, user-friendly way to browse your media library by category or keyword search. To load to the Satellite, you can connect it to a computer like any other hard drive using USB.

Selling for a respectable $200 the GoFlex Satellite comes with a 3 year warranty and both wall and car chargers that while not in use can charge your USB compatible smartphone as well. Take a look at Seagate’s wheretobuy search to find one for yourself.

Just unveiled, Altec Lansing’s latest iPhone/iPod friendly device adds new innovative features to keep the now classic “dock” model fresh. In addition to delivering rich sound, with its two 3″ full range drivers and a nested 4″ subwoofer, the Octiv 650 has component and composite video out jacks, enabling the user to output Netflix and Youtube streams to their TV right from the dock while enjoying enhanced sound quality. If your queue is feeling stale or laughing baby videos are not your jam, Altec offers a free Music Mood app, which delivers an analog looking interface or tripped out visual to match your tunes.

The Octiv 650 will be available this May in black or slate for $199.95


Bone Collection

Cordless iPhone docks, dinosaur USB drives and more adorably clever device accessories

bonecol2.jpg bonecol3.jpg

The $1 billion-plus industry for Apple accessories is indeed a crowded field, but Taiwanese brand Bone Collection sets themselves apart with adorably inventive iPod cases, stands, USB drives and more.

Innovations include the iPhone Horn Stand, a simple sound solution developed by 19th century audiophiles adapted for the 21st century. This stand allows iPhones or iPods to plug into a soft plastic stand with a form that naturally amplifies the sound output—just like how a horn boosts a wind-up gramophone—without the need for external power. For the active set, the 100% biodegradable Phone Sport band provides an easy and secure way to strap iPhones to arms while at the gym or bouldering.

Bone Collection also makes an array of wraps and cases for all types of iPhones, iPads and iPods to protect the delicate electronics in sturdy yet soft cases in a range of styles, appealing to both men and women. This triangle-patterned Phone Cell pouch’s clever use of silicone absorbs impact, makes it easy to store any number of accessories (not just iPhones), and has Issey Miyake looks. Other cases, like the
Phone Bubble
, molds washable silicone into corner-protecting nubs, offering cute safety for the particularly accident-prone.

Not just limited to the Apple universe, the brand also has a line of plastic cases for USB flash drives that add a little levity to any tech setup. The little devices also make it difficult to misplace these vessels of precious data, putting astronauts, penguins and ninjas to the task of transporting files.

The moderately-priced cases, drives and more sell from retailers around the world as well as from Bone Collection’s Amazon shop.
