ColorWare your new Apple iPhone

iphone-different-colors.jpgWant one of those lovely Apple iPhone’s but without the rather masculine black colors Apple currently provides when, let’s face it, only gold or pink will do?

You can buy the phone already fitted out in your choice of nice new colors for $649 for the 4GB phone or $749 to get the juicy 8GB version.

But don’t panic if you’ve already purchased a phone - for only $149 they can treat your existing block of fun into a myriad of super hues.

14k Gold and Diamond USB drive

14k-gold-usb.jpgCan you tell we are obsessed with diamonds? Even better when those shiny beauties are placed in normally boring looking gadgets. Take for instance this way over the top 14K real gold USB drive which is, as Born Rich puts it, festooned with VS quality diamonds.

For only $2000(!) you can pick up this gaudy delight. But that is money well spent, after all it is a 2.0 USB drive. Worth every penny for that extra transfer speed.

Sadly, the device cannot be worn on your finger.

We heart this pink digital photo album

heart-keychain.jpgYou know how it is, a purse full of pictures that are old, dusty and wrinkly - and that’s just the family! Why bother with such old fashioned technology when you can keep people entertained for literally minutes with a digital keychain picture display. This pink beauty can hold a small but perfectly formed 35 digital pictures and is just $23.

And just in case you are not into pink (what’s wrong with you?!) then you can also get this great little gadget in red and silver colors too.

Vertu diamond encrusted cell phone

vertu.jpgI’ve probably moaned before about the lack of really beautiful phones to arrive in the US, having lived in Europe for many years and being spoiled with an abundance of pink mobile devices.

Thankfully you can now snap up the new phone from the good people at Vertu. The cell phone features tiny pink and white diamonds all lovingly paved in a sweet rosy color.

Don’t even ask how much this baby will cost when it starts to ship in its strictly limited numbers….

Pepperface. Crabman Helps Keep You Safe.

Pepperface Pepperspray

I spend most of my time outside America. Where carrying things like this, could get you in a bit of trouble with the Met. Not so in the lovely U S of A. If anything, handy little bottles of mace and pepperspray are considered absolute musts where personal safety is concerned. My mom wanted to send me something akin when I moved to Europe. If it’d been cute and shiny and from Pepperface, I may have let her. “Self defence that doesn’t compromise style or conveinence.” That’s the billing on the product page.

Get standard pretty-purple or go for a Prevention Purpleā„¢. For each of these models sold, Pepperface.com will contribute a dollar to support the National Center on Domestic & Sexual Violence. Best part? They’ve got a little number designed by Crabman himself. And Earl.

Apple iPhone

Apple iPhone

I really don’t know what to say about the iPhone. Except this: I want one. Now.

The gadget world has been all abuzz recently about this 3-n-1 little beauty due out sometime this summer. Maybe. (See Legal-ease Stuff).

Apple’s iPhone is this. A state of the art mobile phone, a widescreen iPod (for video and photos) with touch controls and an internet communications device with “desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching”.

If you’re interested in new and improved technical bits, google “iPhone” or go straight to Apple.

Nicole Miller Cell Phone Case

A funky design from otherwise prim and proper American designer Nicole Miller. The new cell phone case in lovely silk taffeta is as brightly colored as an Easter Egg and as Corseted as Ms Antoinette herself. The case measures 3.8″ x 2.2″ x 1.2″ making it suitable for a selection of different phones. I carry my iPod in it myself. So should you.

No Touch Alarm Card

No Touch Alarm Card

When I first moved to the Big Bad City I lived in fear of pickpockets. I never carried anything in my trousers, on my shoulder or on my back. I preferred instead to bundle it all in my arms like an overdressed vagrant. That was before the No Touch Alarm Card - a little promotional device you slip in your side pocket or handbag. I don’t use it, mind. I’ve learned to minimise and simplify. But back in the day, I would have been the first in line for the pickpocket alarm.

The No Touch Alarm Card is a personal safety alarm device. The credit card sized gadget has a built-in one sensor, which reacts to light and sounds an alarm when exposed to even a small amount of light. Place it in your pocket or bag alongside valuables and it sounds off if it’s about to be lost or lifted.

Fully customised designs for companies looking for a little extra publicity.
