Owning an iPhone or an iPad is half the fun – the other half is accessorizing it. Dressing it up, adapting it to perform other functions, adding gadgets to enhance its usage. Here are eight new iPhone and iPad accessories that will go on sale this summer.
This clip-on case ($100, August) plus app turns any iPhone into a universal remote control. The case has a slide piece with an infrared tip so it'll fit any older, perhaps unused iPhone to use as a dedicated remote instead of your current constantly used iPhone, and when you clip it on, the app automatically downloads to your iPhone. Codes for every audio/video component are built into the app – you just tell it what gear you own. Since it's an iPhone, each update of the app will contain codes of the newest gear. Personally, I can't wait to get my hands on one.
