iWood
iWood by Miniot

The iWood is a wooden protective case for your iPhone (additional wooden doc shown above). You will never need to remove the iPhone from the wood case b/c all the buttons are easily accessible. They even have tiny holes on the bottom to allow the speakers to play your jams with no obstructions. This natural case is crafted from a single piece of wood and can also be monogrammed with your logo or a personal message.

They also have a variety of colors: Oak, Padouk, Cherry, Mahogany and Walnut
Price: € 70 (I think that is about $140.00 US)

AT&T Hates Trees

Posted by psmynameisphil in rant, whateves on August 14th, 2007 @ 8:56 pm

I just opened my first bill from AT&T for my iPhone. Its a total of 25 pages front and back! It’s a total waste of paper! I didn’t go over my minutes, text messages or data transfer, but they still itemized the bill down to every transaction making the bill so bulky. If anyone has this phone (or a way over detailed phone bill) I would encourage you to go paperless. Have AT&T email you your bill this way you can save 25+ sheets of paper every month.

The funny thing is…this bill probably cost AT&T about $7.00 to mail to me. Now times that by every iPhone customer. Their postal bill must be insane.

Brush and Rinse

A TOOTHBRUSH CAN REDIRECT WATER FROM A FAUCET TO YOUR LIPS FOR EASY RINSING.

BRUSHING AND RINSING IS AN ORAL CARE ROUTINE THAT WE ALL
PERFORM AT LEAST ONCE EVERYDAY. AT THIS POINT, NO ONE SHOULD BE USING DISPOSABLE CUPS FOR RINSING AFTER BRUSHING. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO WASH A GLASS OR CUP EVERYTIME THEY RINSE. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO LAP WATER FROM THEIR HAND. NO ONE SHOULD BE FORCED TO SLURP EXCESS WATER FROM TOOTHBRUSH BRISTLES. CURRENT METHODS OF GETTING WATER INTO OUR MOUTHS FOR RINSING AFTER BRUSHING ARE SLOPPY, CREATE WASTE, AND PLACE UNNECESSARY STRESS ON OUR BODIES. AND, PEOPLE LOVE WATER FOUNTAINS.

Retail Price: $3.00

Prototype Price: $1,750.00 (only 27 working prototypes)
