If your kids are in the sports, Coach’s Eye is the perfect gift idea this season. Spend quality time with your kids and make them feel special. Be their coach in a fine way even if you have never coached before. This new iPhone app will enable you to record, watch and review plays. Whether it’s baseball, hockey or any other sport, you can go over with the kids on their playing techniques. Review play by play, whether it is swinging technique, shooting, free throws or kicking, so they can capitalize on their strong points and concentrate on correcting their weak points.
You can be your own coach if you let someone record your play actions while you are playing. Then replay it in the leisure of your home and identify what you should or should not be doing to improve your skills.

Over the last little while, we’ve posted about quite a few cases and accessories for the iPhone; the Zebrawood Veil sticker (for a lack of a better word) is probably one of the most elegant add-ons for the iPhone 4. The wooden sticker is made in Los Angeles by Killspencer and is hand-crafted from zebrawood maple wood. Just peel the back of the sticker off and apply it to your iPhone to give it an individualized and elegant look.

“Imitation is the sincerest/greatest/best form of flattery” according to an old saying and Apple products have been imitated to death. Their lawyers don’t think of it as flattery, but rather a pay check. We’ll see how long it takes them to go after a Korean company called Destination Seoul for making the cute little mini Apple logo wooden speaker.
The mini speaker is hand crafted from apricot wood and measures 2.6” x 2” x 0.5” and only weighs half an ounce. The wooden speaker is powered by a lithium-polymer batter with a five hour life; it can be recharged by plugging it into a USB port. Read More →
At Geek Extreme, we’ve posted about quite a few iPhone cases that give the iPhone a new look and some even give it extra functions. We’ve seen covers that make the phones look like cameras (not covered on our site) but we’ve never seen anything like the iCamera Case by Hashy.
Not only does the iCamera Case makes the iPhone look exactly like a camera from the 90’s, it also makes the phone bulky and hard to carry in your pocket. The back of the phone/case actually has a lens and a “film hump” that stick way out. Of course they don’t add any functions to the phone. Read More →
If you’re into cars, you’ll love the iPhone 4 Gasket Brushed Aluminum cases. The designs for the gasket iPhone 4 cases are inspired by the shape of head gaskets on performance automobiles and they not only protect your phones but also give them a very unique look.
The exterior of the gasket iPhone 4 cases are made out of real brushed aluminum and the inner parts are lined with suede lining providing maximum protection from scratches and minor falls. The iPhone 4 Gasket Brushed Aluminum cases come in five colors (aluminum silver, vintage gold, modern bronze, titanium gray and jet black) and come with a set of front and back clear screen protective film, a squeegee for film application, and a microfiber cloth.

We’ve shown you quite a few iPhone cases over the last few weeks, so far all of these cases have had two purposes: to protect your phone and make it look different from everyone else’s’ phones. The Opena iPhone case now adds a third function to the case; it comes with actual bottle opener.
The Opena iPhone case works like a normal case and helps protect your phone with a hard-shell case but when it’s time for a drink, just slide the back part and you’ve got an opener. As the video says “if you don’t have an iPhone then you don’t have an Opena attached to your iPhone. And if you don’t have an Opena, then you can’t open beers with your iPhone… Well, if you don’t have an Opena, then you probably don’t have an iPhone either.” Too true… Read More →
Recently we have been posting about quite a few different cases for the iPhone 4 to help you stand apart from the crowd, however, all of those cases were “as is” with no customization options. The Neostitch iPhone 4 Case on the other hand lets your inner artist out by allowing you to cross-stitch any type of design you wand and ensuring your iPhone case is one of a kind.
The Neostitch iPhone 4 Case is created by Korea based Connect Design and it comes in six different color cases (pink, white, orange, green, blue, and black). Inside each case there are a few different colors of thread, 2 needles, and a few patterns for inspiration. The kit can by yours for $18.00 each. Read More →
