Exovault Metal Case Bricks Your iPhone, In a Good Way

White iPhone Discoloration Actually Caused by Crappy Cases, Maybe

Domo iPhone Case Has Charm to Spare

If you love your iPhone so much you think it would look great hanging on the Christmas tree, you probably already have these $30 bauble-like cases from More.

Asus Vento PC Cases Stack Thin and Fold Out
Asus has a pretty good idea with their new Vento line of PC cases. The F11 (black) and F12 (silver) simply fold out for assembly without any tools. While some may say that a preassembled chassis is still more convenient, the Vento design cuts down on shipping costs by 30%. That's great for the environment, but it's even better for squeezing boxed PC components into your backseat. Plus, we love the insta-PC aspect of design, even if it's hollow when assembled. Read on for bay specs. More »

UPDATE: It is not the first, as Asetek had done this ages ago. More »
