cowhidemacbookaircase Macbook Air Case Made of Cowhide Skin Is Making Us Lose Our lunchYou know those people who have to have all their accessories covered in leopard print? Well this is worse. Wrappers has a new Macbook Air sleeve made of Cowhide print ultrasuede skin with microfibre lining on the inside. The case retails for £40.00 and each case comes with a “unique pattern”. We’re not sure if this is real cowhide or fake, but either way we are pretty disturbed. Update: It’s fake, phew. To be fair, the company behind this case does have a selection of other nice cases worth looking at ranging from corduroy materials to linen in many different colors and designs, none of which will moo at you.

itunessync iTunes Sync App Lets You Sync iTunes with Any MP3 PlayerDo you really like iTunes, but you don’t have an ipod? iTunes Sync is a free software app for Windows that lets you sync your non Apple made MP3 player with iTunes.

Hello Kitty Solar Power Charger to Use With Your HK Cell Phone

hellokittysolarpowercharger Hello Kitty Solar Power Charger to Use With Your HK Cell PhoneWe’ve seen many Hello Kitty phones over the years, some ugly, some decent and some just way too expensive. If you got yourself one of them then you might want to get this Hello Kitty Solar power charger to use with it. The device can also work to charge your MP3 player, camera or PDA (not that anyone uses those things anymore) via a USB port. No sunshine around? You can also charge up the device via DC power which will provide you with one hour of juice, but sunlight will give you up to 6 hours. Unfortunately, the Hello Kitty Solar Power Charger costs a whopping $159.99, yeh, what did you expect from a Sanrio licensed product.

DXG-567VP Flash Based HD Camcorder is Cheap & Pink

hdcam DXG 567VP Flash Based HD Camcorder is Cheap & PinkWe are so not vouching for the quality of this super cheap HD camcorder, after all it does look a lot like a cheap ipod ripoff. But To its credit, the DXG-567VP comes in a choice of pink blue, red or black. The camcorder features 2x digital zoom, a 2″ LCD display with a 480 x 240 resolution, a 5 megapixel CMOS sensor with the ability to capture movies in a format as big as 1280 x 720 – in a widescreen or standard aspect ratio. We like that it has got a pop-out USB connector and it promises to come with software that will make it easy to upload to YouTube. The device is flash-based and expandable via a SD slot, though it does have 32MB built-in, which is quite pathetic even for a cheap camcorder. Think of this one as a slight step-up from the a Flip video camcorder.
