News: New iPhone protection

Apple’s latest iPhone may have more “oomph” than the last model, but it still has to be defended from the real world. So – surprise-surprise – even though the 3G S is just now coming out, there’s already ways to keep it safe from those knocks and bumps.

Such as:

…daily protection, courtesy of the two-layered colour silicon Skin by Proporta. Taking precision cutting to the max gives you a snug fit with full access to all controls. Even fits the existing 3G. (www.skoobadesign.com)

…catering to the non couch-potato through the Armband for iPhone 3G S. Holds the phone arm-high so the runner or athlete can safely be on his/her non-sedentary way. (www.i-luv.com)

…or combining both safety and extra juice to keep the iPhone sizzling. The Juice Pack air is not only a svelte cradle, but the rechargeable battery almost doubles use time while giving you a standby mode with LED status updates. (www.mophie.com)
