GizMac Accessories, designer and manufacturer of innovative products for the iPod and iPhone, announce their Titan Clear iPhone cases are now available in smoke and pink colors.

Titan Clear for iPhone was originally introduced late last year in clear polycarbonate only. Today, GizMac begins shipping the Titan Clear iPhone case in colors as well. These new smoke and pink iPhone cases include all the features and benefits of the original Titan Clear case, but now have color.

“GizMac displayed the new Titan Clear iPhone case colors at MacWorld this year,” explained Ken Vitto, Marketing Director for GizMac Accessories, “The MacWorld attendees were excited about the familiar, yet different coloration we have developed for these iPhone cases.”

The Titan Clear case protects the iPhone with its tough, clear colored polycarbonate shell, but still allows some of Apple iPhone’s striking appearance to show through. The translucent color combined with the curves of the case produces subtle color changes that make the Titan Clear iPhone case unique.

Smoke and pink colors of the Titan Clear iPhone cases need to be explained to be fully appreciated. Smoke is a form of black that appears darkest on the curves and can exhibit an almost pewter look occasionally in the light. Pink is slightly luminescent and can be considered a “hot” pink, while the case may sometimes show a hint of red at certain angles in bright light.

The Titan Clear for iPhone includes a clear, slightly frosted holster with rotating belt clip and thin film, full screen protector. Titan Clear iPhone cases have a retail price of $34.99 U.S. and are available from authorized resellers or from GizMac directly. Additional details can be obtained on the GizMac Accessories web site at http://www.gizmac.com.

If you’re the type of person that climbs rocks on the weekends to “relax” after pounding a hammer, or a jack hammer, all week, and you own an iPhone, then we’ve just found the perfect case for you, bud. OtterBox’s Defender will do just that, protect and defend your iPhone like a good LA cop should. (Please, no wise cracks.) Keeping all your ports from the elements and the phone itself well protected, you’ll feel safe taking calls and using your finger to navigate without issue on the Defender. Read our review and see what our worker-man the construction guy, Josiah, thought about it!

Well known Apple accessory designer, Power Support has announced the latest in protective accessories to keep your music safe. The revolutionary Black Crystal Jacket Set is customized to keep the damage to your iPod Touch at a minimum. Power Supports Black Crystal Jacket Set for the iPod Touch is just what you need to compliment the aesthetics of the iPod touch, without impeded use of the touch screen.

• Rotating stand allows either vertical or horizontal viewing of the screen
• The crystal jacket allows for protection from dust, scratches, and impacts
• The slim style of the Crystal Jacket won’t add bulk to your iPod.

I don’t want to let this teaser be a spoiler, but truth is, this has to be one of the worst iPhone cases, no, just plain case, I’ve ever encountered. Stupefied how a great company like Griffin could have even let this thing out the door of its facilities is a wonder to me. Completely abounding any notion of protection due to a horrible defect in the clip, this case gets the definite stinker award.

Outside of Brittany Spears and her downward spiral being documented for all to see, nothing else is currently any worse than this piece of junk called the Elan Holster. Berkeley, forget bras, burn these!

If your curious to what makes this so bad, then you must read the full review.

Microsoft has released a new version of their Zune MP3 player. We welcome the Zune 2nd Generation. The new Zune Pad appears on these refreshed versions, boasting an innovative touch-sensitive button for navigating the device, as well as wireless sync, Windows Media Centre TV on the go, and new codec support. Pretty useful device, hey?

Proporta’s Alu-Leather Case (Microsoft 2G Zune 4GB and 8GB) is definitely a must have for protecting your MP3 player against the all-harming day to day impacts they encounter.

Proporta create this protection by using their trademark ‘screen saver system’ which uses a sheet of rigid, lightweight aircraft grade Aluminium to line the Case, perfectly saving it against crushing and impact shocks. Cut aways give access to ports and controls so that you can use your device in the case.

Another protective option is the Proporta Silicone Case (Microsoft 2G Zune 4GB and 8GB).

The Silicone Case gives your Zune 2G a tough, protective skin, allowing access to all ports and controls, whilst protecting it from scratching and impact damage. The Silicone case adds little more than a millimetre to your device enabling you to carry it around comfortably in your pocket.

And more news… keep an eye out for an Aluminium Case for the Zune 2G heading your way as well. More details to follow.

It is also imperative that the Zune 2G’s screen is kept protected from everyday scratches, scrapes and dust invasion. Proporta recommends their Advanced Screen Protector (Microsoft 2G Zune 4GB and 8GB Series). It incorporates an improved thickness, made from a new ultra high-clarity plastic, without impairing screen brightness and clarity. This screen protector reduces glare from sunlight or bright lighting and is fully washable and replaceable.

More and more manufacturers these days are integrating GPS into their PDAs and Smartphones. This technology is becoming so widespread and cheap to include, who can blame them for throwing in a bit of sat nav?

Remember the Sony Walkman Sport series of the late 80’s? You know, the ones that could handle some water, dust, and even a long drop from your belt? Well, that same kind of protection is here for your iPhone plus that nod to the Sony yellow of The Wedding Singer years from OtterBox.

Released this week, OtterBox has premiered its first iPhone case that it calls “skin on steroids”. The Defender Series, in either yellow or black, keeps your iPhone protected from the elements such as water, dust, and drop and shock. With a unique scratch-resistant polycarbonate membrane to protect the face of the iPhone, all touch functions are still available to the user without the need to remove the phone from the semi-rugged case. Three Donaldson Acoustic Vents keep the front speaker, bottom speaker and microphone protected from dust and moisture without intruding on the sound.

“Traditionally our OtterBox for iPod line has been completely rugged, but when the iPhone was introduced we wanted to offer an option that paralleled the look of the device while still providing protection from drops, dust and scratches,” said Curt Richardson, CEO of Otter Products, LLC.

If your looking for those really insane rugged cases OtterBox is known for, don’t worry, those will be ready just in time for the holidays.

“This semi-rugged design is a new adventure for us and now we can meet the needs of consumers who want the most rugged protection as well as those who just need a safeguard from day-to-day mishaps,” explains Richardson.

OtterBox starts shipping the cases Friday at $49.95 each. You can order direct from OtterBox now.
