Apple iPhone Smartphone

Christmas is just about a month away. And if you're still wondering what to get for your loved ones (or maybe even for yourself :)), it might be a good idea to get them a Pink iPhone! Yes!

Errmm, but the thing is.. you couldn't just buy them off the shelf . Not to worry though. Just head off to ColorwarePC to get your iPhone painted pink for you. You can either buy them online of call 888-452-6567. I just love their 'cotton candy', 'romance' and the metallic 'blush' paint colors.

Well, if you don't fancy pink (why?), you can choose the other 23 colors that they offer to customize your iPhone.

The parts of the phone that is 'paintable' are:
- The Back
- The Bottom
- The Frame
- The Button
- The Logo
- The Earbuds
- The Docks

The price of painting your iPhone to your favourite color can range from $159 to $229.

Belkin Sport Armband for iPod Shuffle

This is an absolutely gorgeous Sport Armband for your iPod Shuffle from Belkin.

"Simply wrap the Sport Armband around your arm or wrist, and have easy access to the controls on your iPod shuffle. Hand-washable and water-resistant."

It is compatible with iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation (1GB). Belkin will donate 10 percent of the retail price of this product to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

It is however not widely available, as it can only be found exclusively in the United States at Target starting 15th September 2007. Which means, they're most likely to be little to none left by now. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you can find them at eBay ;)

Belkin Sport Armband for iPod Shuffle retails at $19.99

Pink Zune Out On Friday 13th April

Hey there All,
It's been a while since I last post anything here. Something happened that caused me to stop writing. Too personal to share though. Hope you guys don't mind.

Anyway, I'm up and about now :D So, I'll be posting the latest news and reviews on gadgets, and yes the focus is still on pink gadgets! It's kinda ironic though that it's Friday the 13th. Haha.

That aside, it feels so good to be back!
So, keep coming back to pinkgadget.blogspot.com ok?

Without further ado, I present you the not so new, but currently being released (again) for the rest of the world to indulge, this time in Pink (again, Yeah!) .. Zune MP3 Player! ZuneOnline informed that it that it will be released Today! (oops..)
What are you still waiting for then? Go get it! Now!

Twice mentioned that Microsoft (the company who produced Zune..) said it is also considering offering a red Zune this summer because “colors as well as the unique finish and texture for the device are really resonating with consumers. Increasingly, technology design is mirroring fashion and we are looking at trends in the coming fashion seasons as we develop new colors,” according to a spokeswoman.

Zune is retailed at $249.

Iron Speaker for iPod

This is a rather funny gadget. An iron-shaped speaker for iPod? :P. Whomever designed this speaker must be sooo in love with ironing. Iron on an iPod? Maybe it should be called as "iRon" instead. Hey, it doesn't sound so bad afterall. (Anyone interested in the name? ;)

Anyway, since it is pretty cheap (you can get it for $10), I recommend you to just buy it, just for the heck fun of it. This Iron Speaker mimics the controls on a real iron where they are shaped like a steam button, and there's also a dial for settings. And guess what? There's even a cable which has two completely useless protrusions at the end to resemble a standard three-prong wall plug. This is so funny :P

Engadget mentioned that you also get an alarm clock whose face is on the bottom of the unit, as well as an FM radio with antenna built into that strange cable.

The Iron Speaker is available in three colors - pink, lime and orange.

Hey, why not surprise your dry cleaners or housekeeper this holiday season with this Iron Speaker? :)

Limited Edition Microsoft Pink Zune

Could you believe that this Pink Zune is already in the market? Reallyyy?Uh oh. No. Not exactly. False alarm. According to ZuneInfo, apparently Microsoft has only put 100 of these out in the wild, complete with a certificate stating just that.

"One lucky shopper managed to pick one up at Circuit City and has now put it up for sale on eBay." So, I guess you could either hunt down the 99 Pink Zunes left (probably) or you could go all out in the bidding war on eBay.

According to ZuneInfo, so far the bidding on Ebay is up to: $380.99 (Good luck Pink Zune chasers!)
Is this a sign that Ipod has finally met it's real rival? Time will tell.

Also, head over to ZuneScene for more information.
Watch Zune in action (video from Gizmodo):

New Hasbro i-Dog Musical Companion for iPod and MP3 Players

The i-Dog has been updated with new features for the 2006 holidays by Hasbro. One of them is that this playful, palm-sized robot puppy reacts to music now without connecting a cable to them.

There are many ways to get the i-Dog to react to music it hears:


1. Try sitting i-Dog in front of a speaker, or
2. Use his own built-in speaker, or
3. Plug him into the headphone jack of an iPod or other MP3 player.

SharperImage described that "After a few seconds of music, his face lights up, ears wag and head tilts in sync with the beat. i-Dog also can be expressive without music, staying animated even after the music stops."
Oh yeah, you need to tweak his tail to mute sounds when using his built-in speaker.
What I love about this i-Dog is the blinking LEDs on his face that shows the expression of i-Dog's four moods: "agitated" when listening to rock and rap music; "pleased" when you're playing him country and classical; "delighted" from pop and R&B numbers; and "excited" when it comes to dance music!
The i-Dog is compatible with most portable music devices including iPod, Discman and Rio. Besides Pink, i-Dog is also available in Blue, Black, White and Dalmation.

SharperImage is selling the i-Dog for $29.95

Pink Samsung Blush SGH-x830 With Benefit

What can I say, this phone is a must-buy for every girls! And a perfect gift for Christmas. ShinyShiny attended this Samsung Blush launch and has done a great review on this phone. To add the 'Zing' factor, Samsung Blush comes packaged up with a selection of Benefit goodies. Yay!

And as you could've guessed the launch was done in a style ala day spa / beauty parlour, where attendees were treated to eyebrow waxes and mini-makeovers whilst learning about the phone. Blush should be thought of as a music device with all the benefits of a mobile phone, rather than the other way around.

ShinyShiny reported that "the music player is the big plus, very iPod like with a click wheel for navigation and easy to use menus. There's also an 'offline' mode that'll turn off all phone functions so you can use it purely as a music player on planes and other non-phone-friendly areas. Internal memory is 1gb, sadly there's no card slot to increase that, but when you think it already has double the memory of an iPod shuffle, it'll still hold a good number of songs."

"The camera is a respectable 1.3 megapixels with an automatic flash, and the phone itself is lipstick sized, bright pink and easy to slip into your handbag. "

Unfortunately, there's a down-side to this excellent Blush: The new keypad layout of two rows instead of three would probably make frequent texters think twice before purchasing Blush. However with a style to die for, I think a lot of them would decide to give in ;)

GadgetCandy mentioned that the "Samsung's Blushin' box set will feature £50 worth of Benefit goodies. Think a Georgia palette, a silky lip cream, lush eye shadows and a Hollywood Glo body balm, all tucked inside a chic cosmetic bag. And if you're no good at face painting, then head over to your nearest Benefit Beauty Bar and present the 'Make Upper' card also included in the package to redeem your free slap session. The Samsung Blush will be available exclusive to Orange from 1 November. It comes free on all 12 month contracts over £30 or £179.99 on Pay As You Go."

What say you? Must have or just another fad?

iTude Illuminating Earphone for iPod

This illuminating earphones called iTude (commercially spelled as !Tude, with the 'i' inverted) is the latest electroluminescent (EL) product launched by Helpdezk (Hong Kong) Ltd.

According to PRWeb, !Tude is equipped with one pair of EL wires, and will illuminate when users listen to music. (Hint: works best in a dark room/area). These EL wires are protected by flexible nylon nets, so, !Tude is very durable for frequent use. It can also can be used with different types of portable music devices such as MP3 players, CD players, etc.

!Tude is powered by two AAA batteries and can operate for more than 10 hours of non-stop glowing. !Tude has three modes of operation, 'On Steady', 'Beat to Music' and 'Off'. Just plug-in the !Tude jumper wire into the mini-headphone jack of the portable music device, it is then ready to use. !Tude can still function even without a battery. It then works like an ordinary earphone wire.

It's great to hear that !Tude comes in colors: blue, pink, lime, aqua, yellow and white. PRWeb also mentioned that plastic cradles for iPod, iPod Mini, iPod Shuffle & iPod Nano are provided free of charge to integrate !Tude with iPod MP3 players.

iSoundCap Running Hat for IPod Nano

Yahoo Finance reported that iSoundCap Inc will be releasing the new running hat for iPod Nano, called iSoundCap. Made using lightweight and breathable fabric, this cap had been specifically designed for runners, and it is also compatible with the Nike+iPod kit. The iSoundCap allows runners to place their iPod in the cap where the wires are neatly tucked away inside the cap making their running experience virtually wire-free. Unlike the usual armband or belt clip that goes with the Nike+iPod Kit that leaves wires hanging and in the way.

"In a recent press conference Steve Jobs CEO of Apple said, 'Apple has sold 450,000 Nike+iPod Sport Kits in less than 90 days since their introduction. The kits provide connectivity between the iPod Nano and Nike running shoes.'"

"Karl Foust, CEO of iSoundCap Inc. says, 'When runners try our new caps we are sure they will find it a better way to carry their iPod while training.'"

Since the complete lineup will include colors matching the new iPod Nano 2nd Generation, this means that this hat/cap is available in pink. Great!

Pink Gadget Is Born! - Ipod Nano Leather Case Takes Centerstage

Hye guys,
My name's Rina. And I absolutely love pink to death. I just can't understand girls (and boys) who hate the color pink. What? Boys shouldn't be wearing pink? That is sooo last season. Pink looks good on anyone.. and I mean just anyone. So, as a dedication towards the color pink, I'm going to write a lot about any latest, vintage and must-have pink gadgets - hence the name ;)

To start up this Pink Gadget Blog, let's take a look at this IPod Nano Leather Case in Pink (of course!) from Gear4.com. Stunning isn't it?



Features:
• Premium-grade leather
• Super soft velvet lining
• With velcro bag strap
• Full access to click wheel, screen and ports
• Strong magnetic clip closure

However, please note that this leather case is not compatible with the new Nano. It works with 2GB and 4GB models. If you're already thinking on purchasing it, it's going to cost you £19.99.

For you guys who have already owned this Ipod Nano Leather Case, please share your views. Does it look as good as what the picture shows? Can it sustain long wearing? Does the color wear off easily?

Ok. That's all for now.
More Pink Gadgets will follow soon!
