Now there is a case that ruggedly protects your iPhone, and is biodegradable. Made of bamboo (40% reclaimed) pulp which is pressed into the perfect shape to protect the phone from most accidents. I have even seen one swiped LCD side down on a brick surface, the bevel on the case saved the screen. The case is available at Amazon for $35.

Even though CDs have been around for over 25 years ton of cars are still equipped with cassette decks. Now you can add extra life to the dead format with the Bluetooth Cassette Tape Adapter ($40). Simply pair the adapter with your cell phone with the bluetooth headset profile, then pop it into your tape deck. It allows you can make hands free calls while driving. The only downside is that the bluetooth headset profile is the ONLY profile currently supported, A2DP would make this the ultimate cassette receiver. More pictures.
