iPhone Accessories

Every day seems to bring another reveal in the ongoing wait for a Verizon Wireless iPhone launch. This weekend is no different, with online catalog screen shots from offwire.com leaked in news reports showing Verizon Wireless iPhone 4 cases manufactured by Case-Mate.

It's not clear whether or not there are any changes in case design required for the Verizon iPhone 4 model. The entries have since been pulled off of the web. Text anticipating the Verizon launch was also discovered on a Case-Mate landing page:

Looking to give your iPhone 4 battery a boost? The juice pack plus from Mophie sports a massively powerful 2,000 mAh capacity battery in a sleek case. Besides fitting the iPhone 4 so well, this additional battery adds up to 8 hours 3G talk time, 7 hours 3G data time, and 11 hours video playback depending on usage conditions.

The case features an ergonomic design and rubberized bumper that will come in four colors (black is currently available and ships in 1-2 days). Your iPhone 4 can be charged and synced without removing the juice pack plus, and a built-in LED status indicator tells you how much charge is left.

Sports fans now have another way to show off their favorite hobby from ZAGG. A twist on their LEATHERskins product line instantly turns any iPhone into a true leather baseball or football. Genuine textures recreate the look and feel of actual sporting equipment and protect the sides and back of your device from scratches and damage.

SportsLEATHER is just as easy to apply as a film, yet it adds the touch and feel of real leather to your iPhone. No more scratch-prone plastic or breakable glass backs. Supple leather forms to curves and the sportsLEATHER design of your choice is custom-fit to your specific iPhone model.

Looking for a natural solution to amplify the sound coming out of your iPhone speakers? Koostic now offers a line of completely electricity-free iPhone docks made of high-quality wood. They are finished with orange oil and beeswax instead of harsh chemicals. The dock will amplify sound 2-4 times the normal volume of your iPhone speakers.

Koostic creates dynamic sound with acoustic amplification through specially designed sound channels and hemispheric sound chambers. As the Koostic website explains, the technology is similar to that used in an acoustic guitar. Strumming a hollow wood body will increase the volume.

What if you could just plug your iPhone directly into a router with a USB cable and share the 3G data connection with every Wi-Fi device within 200 feet? Now you can, with Nexaira's Business Class 2 tethering-ready router. The router is compatible with the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G.

Of course, if your iPhone is not jailbroken, you'll need to enable official tethering with your cellular carrier. AT&T offers iPhone owners tethering for $20 per month. With tethering, simply plug in the Nexaira BC2 router, connect the iPhone via the rear USB port and you're all set. Anywhere with power and a 3G signal becomes a Wi-Fi hotspot.
