ultra-case

Direct from Hong Kong are these nifty cases to liven your dreary old iPhone.  Unfortunately, they don't seem to be making cases for the iPod Touch, so I'll have to look elsewhere for the hot red leather option.  There are lots of great designs to choose from including the hybrid fabric that looks like carbon ...

If you take a photo with your iPhone of something that is moving really fast such as the propeller on an airplane you'll get this great special effect. The interference pattern is most likely caused by the way the camera's image sensor scans each line horizontally when storing the pixels. This shot was taken by curiouslee ...
