‘My Touch Keys‘ is a new, simple overlay you can use you your iPhone. It’s function is twofold… One, to protect your iPhone from scratches and damage… and two, to give you a more tactile feel when typing on the iPhone QWERTY keyboard.

The cutouts are located where the keys appear in portrait orientation.

One obvious question for me is what happens if you are using the device in landscape?… Or if you are in some other app that requires keystrokes or gestures… Does the cover get in the way and inhibit you from entering commands? The manufacturer claims that the cover is so thin it does NOT effect any touch commands. The cover is also completely transparent, so much so that it is almost un-noticable. Really?

For those that type away all the time on the iPhone, this might help you improve your accuracy and speed. I could see it coming in handy…

However for the price, it’s pretty much worth a shot. My Touch Keys is selling for only $7.99 and is available here. If it helps improve your speed and efficiency… good on ya! If it doesn’t help you all that much, at least you’ve only invested a measly $7.99

In a nut-’shell’ it’s a clear case with a ‘kickstand’ for your 3rd gen iPod Nano. It’s made from a protective polycarbonate that shields your precious nano from danger. The ‘kickstand’ also provides a unique hands-free way method of video viewing. Kinda neat.

The case provides access to the dock connector and headphone jack as well.

Toss your Nano into this bad boy and throw it in your bag or pocket. It’s not going to get scratched or damaged in this bad-boy!

The VideoShell for iPod Nano is available for $19.99 USD from the DLO site. Click here for more info.

So, you’ve bought your macbook air! You spent $1,799 or $3,098 US, right?

Ok, now you have to look for a case for your Macbook Air? How much will that cost you? Which case should you get?

Well, be prepared to spend about $400 if you want to go top-of-the-line. To see what I mean head on over to www.vajacases.com where they sell cases for many mac products from the iPhone to MacBook Pros. They still don’t have one for the macbook air, but you can send them your email address and information for the new model they are going to create. (Click Notebook > Apple > MacBook Air)

Nice? Well, how much will that be? I’m still curious, since some of their MacBook Pro cases start at around $400!

Let’s say your macbook air case starts at $450, plus what you have spent for your macbook air, plus the Applecare protection, plus any extra accessory, plus the external hard drive… let’s see… wait… I guess I’ll buy a car instead!

P.S. Mr. Mayor tells me that he has reviewed and used a bunch of Vaja products in the past. He says ‘while they are expensive, the quality of the product more than makes up for it. You get what you pay for, and Vaja is a quality, durable brand.’
