Just when you thought you might have seen every type of accessory for the Iphone & Ipod, CTA digital brings you a steering wheel for use with driving games. The steering wheel is meant to give a more realistic feel when while driving opposed to tilting your phone or Ipod. I'm not sure how practical this would be outdoors because a person would look ridiculous in public twisting a steering wheel. Let alone carrying it places just to play a few driving games. The steering wheel is compatible with: iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch, iPod Touch 2G

Check out the video-->


CTA has also created knockout gloves for the Wii. For a more realistic feel when playing certain boxing games on Nintendos console.
Compatbile with the following Wii games:
• Punch-Out!™
• Wii™ Sports (Boxing)
• Victorious Boxers: Revolution
• FaceBreaker™ K.O. Party
• Ready 2 Rumble: Revolution and any other Wii Boxing games that require the Wii Remote and a Nunchuk

IPHONE IS HERE, SO WHAT?

Just like sneaker hype,many people were caught up in the IPHONE hype. Unless you live in some very small country, you should know that the IPHONE is Apple's first product in the cellular phone business. partnered with AT&T/Cingular, the IPHONE is basically a touchscreen ipod that can make calls. Of course like anything hyped, people camped outside the Apple stores to get the latest cool gadget. Not many people did research on the phone they just want it to say that they have it. Well I'm going to mention some of the cons of owning an IPHONE.

1. Non removeable battery. like an Ipod, the Iphone battery cannot be removed. If it dies while your outside, another battery cannot be put in. I actually have 2 batteries for my cellphone since I have a pocket pc, watch videos heavily, listening to music & stay on the net or instant messenger. Being able to have an extra battery is very helpful.

2. Cant send pictures to other cellphones. For $600, why cant I use the 2 megapixel camera to send a picture to my friends cellphone? The Iphone will only allow you to email pics so unless you know your friends cellphone email address, you wont be able to send that picture.

3. Cant cut, copy or paste text. Sorry guys who like to send the same myspace message to multiple females. You cant just copy & paste because the Iphone doesnt allow that. I thought this was a next generation phone. Hell i can copy, paste & upload to this blog from my 2 yr phone.

4. Cant record video. So here I have this pretty phone & i'm outside & something funny is happening or something worth recording to show to a friend later. Well I cant pull out the Iphone & record it. I guess it will have to be one of those moments where you had to have been there. For a phone that advertises YOUTUBE, it seems odd that I cant take a video & upload it to YOUTUBE. Oh well

5. Cant use music as ringtones. So all those songs stored on your 8gb Iphone & not one of them can be used as a ringtone. Thats old fashion. When someone elses Iphone goes off you have to check to see if its yours because chances are, someone has the same ringtone as you.

6. The Iphone doesnt use 3G capapabilities. The internet on the Iphone is the slowest out of all major cellphone carriers in the U.S. Sprint & Verizon are in the lead with very fast internet speed. T mobile's Sidekick 3 is even faster than the Iphone on the net. Try visiting your friends Myspace page that has a slide show on it, glittery background & other intense graphics. Your battery life will be draining fast while the page is loading slooooow. Think dial up compared to dsl. Oh and for everyone that says the Iphone has wi-fi...it does but of course you have to be in a hotspot.


7. No insurance on your phone. You better not break or lose your phone or there goes $600. How the hell are they not going to cover an Ipod/cellphone? Thats plain ol robbery. Well you can always get 3rd party insurance from someone else but dont you think your cellphone company should offer that?

8. No instant messenging. Even the sidekick can instant message & sprint & verizon pda's have 3rd party software that can be downloaded to have aim, yahoo, icq, msn etc on your phone.

9. No voice dialing. Thats why they show the pretty scrolling phonebook because they lack voice dialing. I can press a button on a blutooth headset & say Nike I.D & guess what the phone will start dialing. I like having choices, dont you?

10. Horrible plans. heres a look at the Iphones lowest plan.


They're robbing you without a gun.
