by No Tie Software

Our readers try to get the most out of their iOS-based technology, so it’s no surprise they have responded to our coverage of the iCade Bluetooth based arcade cabinet.

MatchBook Pro iPhone case encourages you to play with matches, but it’s safe!

by No Tie Software

When I saw the MatchBook Pro (no, that’s not a typo for MacBook Pro) I was intrigued. I don’t smoke, but I light candles occasionally so the exposed ‘matches’ that really function as a kickstand are a neat touch. The case itself is well made, with a felt lining to protect your iPhone 4 or [...]

by No Tie Software

Thanks to Apple’s secrecy, when they Introduce a new gadget, case makers have to scramble to make accessories that fit it properly. The new iPad is a perfect example, yet Gumdrop was able to create and ship their ruggedized Gumdrop Drop Tech case rather quickly. In fact,while the case I received fit my new iPad [...]

The folks at Ten One have been making iOS accessories since the early days, with their Pogo stylus, but their latest creation is something quite unique. Suppose you want to keep your iPad naked, without a case, and you want to prop it up,with a stand. Most stands are obtrusive and take away from the [...]

A case that helps more than your iPhone

by No Tie Software

I saw a beautiful iPhone case at MacWorld, and the aesthetics alone were worth the purchase price, but there’s more than meets the eye. Trü Protection tells us that 15 percent of the purchase price goes to a specific charity, depending on the case design. read more

Win the fin, by Liking Octa Products on Facebook!

by No Tie Software

I’ve written about the very cool Octa TabletTail before, and now they are giving iPhone Life readers a chance to win one of these cool tablet stands/grips. I first saw these folks at MacWorld, but I’ve finally had some hands-on time with the TabletTail. It’s a combination grip/stand that attaches either directly to your tablet [...]

When it comes to iPhone cases, More is better.

by No Tie Software

I like to change my iPhone case frequently, depending on the situation. This weekend, I participated in a Startup Weekend (my app won Best Mobile App, by the way!) so I needed a case with a battery pack, during the 54 hour marathon session. read more

OtterBox ships an iPad case so good, it comes in its own case!

by No Tie Software

Thanks to Apple’s secrecy, when they Introduce a new gadget, case makers have to scramble to make accessories that fit it properly. The new iPad is a perfect example, yet OtterBox was able to create and ship their ruggedized iProtection case rather quickly. In fact, before the new iPad was announced, back when everyone expected [...]

by No Tie Software

I’ve written, favorably, about other cases from UNU/iBattz before, but their latest case, the UNU DX Plus, packs even more power. With an extra 2400mAh of juice, you can more than double the battery life of your iPhone 4 or 4S. read more

Go ahead and go ballistic with the Lifestyle Smooth iPhone case

by No Tie Software

I’m always on the lookout for the right iPhone case, and usually that means swapping out cases based on the occasion. For a fancy night out, I’ll look for a sleek case. For camping, something rugged. For day to day use, something with protection but not too bulky. And for extended use, away from power [...]

Tame your cables with CableJive

by No Tie Software

Ever since I bought my new iPad, which is more power hungry than the iPad 2, I have been looking for ways to keep it charged. I have several iPhone docks around the house, but they don’t have room to support an iPad. read more

Frog Dissection, the modern way

by No Tie Software

My 11 year old is not looking forward to the upcoming frog dissection portion of her science class, so I was very interested in the Frog Dissection app from Punflay. The app leverages the large touchscreen and interactive nature of the iPad to provide a realistic simulation of the process I remember… and still cringe [...]

Sena makes some great leather cases for iPads, and I’ve written about them in the past, so I was excited to see their latest iPhone offering. The Creativo case doesn’t disappoint. Naturally, as with all Sena cases, the leather is high quality, but at under $40, it’s still affordable. read more

Forget 3D movies and television, the real future is 3D printing! It’s not cheap, yet, but the folks at Sculpteo are trying to pioneer a new way to create truly personalized items from ceramic and other materials. Naturally, they have an app for that, and it supports the iPad as well. It lets you choose [...]

by No Tie Software

Our readers know of Livio Radio (see my review here) for their Bluetooth in car radio hardware kit, available at your local Radio Shack, but you may not know that they have created Livio Connect, an API targeted at hardware makers and app developers. I had the opportunity to speak with Jake Sigal, CEO of [...]

Bring a Bag of Rhythm to Your Next Jammin’ Party this Summer

by No Tie Software

Phil Spector gave us the Wall of Sound. Julie Andrews gave us the Sound of Music. Now, Bob Marley’s family wants to give us the Bag of Rhythm.
