ViKaSkins goes retail

vitovox — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:14:23 +0000

One accessory 100% made in Luxembourg finally hits the shelves. Yes, our ViKaSkins are going retail trough Orange. Obviously only the standard skins. For a custom skin with your own design, you still have to order them online here.

But still, it’s nice to see a big name like Orange selling a local accessory.

You know how rumours work? They are contagious, as soon as something appears somewhere, everybody talks about it.

The rumor we bring you today is… A new device from Apple. What? This isn’t new? You already heard this one? Well, actually this time to back it up (and increase its credibility, somehow) there is an image taken from a Chinese website. Here it is, for your curious eyes:

Accept payments anywhere… With your iPhone!

Ka — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:00:49 +0000

There are people that just can’t stop having ideas, some even very good, or so simple that you say:”Why didn’t I think about it???”

When you are Jack Dorseay (co-founder of Twitter) then your mind must be filled with good ideas. With his new company called Square he developed the Square iPhone Payment System. A tiny cube to be mounted on the headphone jack (iPhone and iPod Touch) and a software to be installed (to make the little cube card reader work) that will allow to accept credit card … [visit site to read more]

Gameboy on the iPhone

vitovox — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 10:23:31 +0000

Great new skin for your iPhone, courtesy of ViKaSkins . I saw this skin once made by some japanese nerd, and was dying to get it, but there was no way to find a reseller. So I undusted my Illustrator box and laid hands on it myself. Have a look. I think it tops my expectations. Of course you can get … [visit site to read more]

New cases from Otterbox

vitovox — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 15:13:05 +0000

Otterbox is well known for their very rough, water-resisstant cases. Those were very bulky and rather suited for outdoor sports, fishing, beach, you name it.

Now they’re presenting a new breed that seems to be more mainstream. They … [visit site to read more]

You’re watching TV on your Mac? Now do it on your iPhone!

Ka — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 15:27:40 +0000

There is a brand quite famous in the Mac scene for it’s video products. I’m talking about ElGato (which means “the cat” in Spanish, btw).

They do some nice kits either to watch tv on your Mac or encode/transcode videos. I know Vitovox, for example, is fond of their products. So, if you’re already using an EyeTV on your Mac, why don’t you start watching live and recorded tv on your iPhone?

iWood Cobra: poor people do not read!

vitovox — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 15:19:37 +0000

This is not for the faint of heart. iWood carves wood into cases for the iPhone. Expect your case to take 4 weeks before being ready. All this handcraft has a price ranging from 80€ to 140€ (glup). You can even engrave a monogram, message or your logo into the case. It is a steep price but at least you get free shipping and the engraving is free as well (not sure if I should say “thank you”).

I ordered the highend Cobra in Wengé/Maple for 140€. It’s probably the only case where you … [visit site to read more]
