Marware's Game Grip Will Aesthetically Ruin Your iPhone

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 21:00:00 EDT

Gaming on the iPhone and iPod touch could be great with the addition of a gamepad handle: the promise of the iControlPad comes to mind. But the iPhone platform doesn't deserve two giant foam handles that do nothing but ruin the sleek lines of the device, providing no buttons, no extra battery life, and no added functionality. Hell, the thing doesn't even look comfortable to hold. It's available for pre-order now and costs a whopping $50. For foam. [Crunchgear]

Marware's USB iPod Shuffle Dock

Thanks to Apple ditching the direct-to-USB feature of the 1G Shuffles in the updated 2G models, you can no longer plug the player directly in to your laptops. But with a $20 Travel Dock from Marware, you have a solution that's just about as good.

The dock is as slim as a standard USB stick, so it won't be blocking other USB devices with its fat midsection. There's USB 2.0 support and even a fancy blue LED to show you when it's on. – Jason Chen

Marware Sportsuit Sensor+: No Need for Nikes

If you're looking to use that Nike + iPod Sport Kit on your daily runs but don't feel like springing for a pair of $100 Nikes, you can still just get the sport kit for $29 and the Marware Sportsuit Sensor+, a $10 pouch made of neoprene and rubber into which you insert the Nike+ iPod wireless sensor. The Velcro closure on the little case just hooks it onto your favorite running shoes. A quick check at the Marware website shows it's not in stock now, but will be available soon for pre-order. – Charlie White
