Extend your iPhone battery life with a Mophie Juice Pack

Finally an iPhone battery pack that fit’s all my criteria. The Mophie Juice Pack has a beautiful form-fitting design and it’s definitely one of the best I’ve seen. It is also lightweight and features a soft-touch coating. The pack also doubles as a case for added protection.

One of the features I really like is the fact that once the juice pack is attached, it’s intelligent power distribution tells the iPhone to always drain the pack first. This always leaves you with a fully charged iPhone ready to go. Simply adding the pack will more than double your iPhone battery life! There are also four LED status indicator s so you will always know exactly how much power is left in your juice pack. This feature alone is a competition killer.

Sure it’s a bit more expensive than alternative choices out there. However, few look as nice or are as full featured.

Get one at the Apple Store.

Preview kids books before buying

Lookybook.com is a cool site which allows parents flip through kid’s books before buying them. You get to see the whole book showcased in a clever page turning flash app. Other sites like Amazon allow you to preview the first couple of pages but that’s about it.

Ikea rules!

Aug 2, 2008 Author: stephen chip | Filed under: Art, Branding, Design, Gadget, Products, iPhone

Ikea is probably one of the best known global brands. Thank god they finally built one in my neck of the woods.

Their top notch design, no nonsense approach is at the heart of their success. It’s hard to walk through, what seems like miles of aisles, and leave empty handed.

Beer belly

What’s the best way to avoid paying $8 bucks a beer at a concert? Simply bring it along in your fake Beerbelly. What a concept. Its surprising that no one else thought of it before. What to do if you already have a beer belly? No worries, you just gained another 20 pounds overnight. I mean, who’s going to notice anyhow?

Don’t worry girls – they have a product just for you. It’s called the Winerack and it’s just like you guessed it. A bra that you fill up with – what else – wine!

Imaging cruising the outback in this killer all terrain camper custom built by Unicat. It’s not really a garbage truck but it sure does resemble one. The windows are only visible when the camper is parked. Once parked the roof raises to reveal windows and to give the much needed headroom for the kitchen and loft bedroom. This is also a built in security feature. More photos are available here.
