If you thought that the All-Weather Soft Case Bike Mount from Bracketron was something to sing about, you will be crazy about the Wahoo Fitness Bike Pack.
The Bike Pack has an integrated bike mount that allows you to use your iDevice touchscreen, which makes it both shock and water resistant. It also has a built-in ANT + radio transceiver which can support ANT + heart rate, speed, cadence, and power sensor. In fact, it even comes with a Premium Speed and Cadence Bike Sensor made just for it.

Mophie Juice Pack Reserve
Mophie is most famous for their Juice Pack Air, a protector/case that also serves as portable battery for an iDevice.
The Juice Pack Reserve is also designed to give an iPhone or iPod an extended battery life, but it isn’t a case. It uses a Zippo construction. The “Zippo” is the company’s own words, and it definitely looks like one of those flip-top metal lighters.
As you can see, the top flips off to reveal a 30 pin connector. Once this is plugged in, the Apple iDevice user is treated to 700mAh of battery power. That is enough for a quick charge, when you need it, and it is quite light.

Dexim’s AppSpeed is a miniature iPhone-controlled monster truck
I have covered products from Dexim before, they usually make products that give more power to iDevices.
One of their newest products is the AppSpeed, a Gyro Controlled RC Monster Truck. The AppSpeed allows an iDevice user to control a two-inch tall monster truck by tilting their compatible iDevice, provided it has iOS 4.0 or later.
The App Speed comes with a custom-built RF Transmitter that fits in the bottom of the iDevice. The moment that contact is made with the 30-pin connector, the iDevice user is prompted to download the application necessary to control the AppSpeed Monster Truck.
As for the little monster truck’s power, it comes with a USB cord that you can connect to your computer or a wall (if you have a USB wall adapter). It also has a quick battery charger that requires 3 AAA batteries (not included) for when you need some power on the go.

Fisher Price presents the Laugh & Learn Apptivity case
I know that my four-year-old son loves to play with our iPhone, but his slimy hands are not the ones I want holding an iDevice. Griffin made a product known as the Woogie that can protect the iPod/iPhone from baby damage, and now Fisher-Price has entered this niche market with the Laugh & Learn Apptivity case.
The case puts the phone in one of those baby toys that have the rings for decoration and play. There is a protector film that keeps the slime and drool out.
That is a lot like the Woogie, without the softness. What also makes it different from the Woogie is that that the home button is protected. This insures that the little tyke can’t access things on the iDevice that he or she is not supposed to.

Ballistic Lifestyle offers rugged protection for your iPhone 4
I must say that Apple’s darn good at marketing, not to mention boasting devices that deliver industrial design par excellence - and in order to make sure that your recent new purchase from the bowels of Cupertino remain in pristine condition for as long as possible, there is the vast world of third party accessories, ranging from the extremely common screen protectors to the quintessential case protector. Well, Ballistic knows that your treasure your shiny iPhone 4 a whole lot, which is why they decided to roll out the Ballistic Lifestyle case.
This particular case is slated to be the latest in rugged protection for Apple’s best selling smartphone to date, where it first tested the waters at CES 2011 to a roar of approval, and I am glad to say that it is finally ready to rock and roll amongst the iPhone 4 toting masses.

iDo iPhone case and Amp
Today, I discovered two products, both are called iDo. I find several weird coincidences about them that I will go into detail about later.
The first is the Icon iDo, an amp that plugs into an iDevice, and the user plugs this amp into a stereo system. The end result is to produce some very terrific quality sound, much better than the iPhone’s external speakers. You can even plug headphones into the Icon iDo and will optimize headphone audio quality.
You have to be pretty committed to your iPhone to get an amp like this. Speaking of committed, you can “marry” your iPhone with this iDo iPhone 4 case. The case has a ring that will grasp your finger so you don’t drop your iPhone. By the way, the ring acts as a 360-degree kickstand to prop up the phone vertically and horizontally. See the photo after the jump.

Zero1.tv unveils VooMote Zapper
Zero1.tv certainly had something interesting up their sleeves at the recently concluded IFA 2011 in Berlin, which is the VooMote Zapper. We first saw the VooMote One sometime earlier this year, but the VooMote Zapper is a slight variation of the One so to speak, where the main purpose of its existence would be to convert your iOS device into an impressively smart universal remote - in fact, one that is capable of gaining full control over virtually all of your A/V gear, while letting you hunt down your favorite TV shows effortlessly.
Touted to be one of the newer, next generation remote controls, it was specially designed to be light-weight and convenient, and ought to be able to fit into most pockets without missing a beat. Being as tiny as a paperclip might prove it to be rather elusive for those who tend to lose things easily, but at least you know at that size, it will plug into the 30-pin connector on your iOS device in a jiffy without looking like an eyesore.

Bluelounge MiniDock charges the iDevice without a cord, but still needs an outlet
We have reported on Bluelounge before, like with the Refresh Charging Station. The international design studio has won some awards, and I would not be surprised if they won an award for this, the MiniDock.
The creators of the MiniDock have realized that people don’t want to stick a USB cord into their iDevice to charge it, and they don’t want to use an adapter to plug it into the wall. What they want is something without a wire, and the MiniDock is a place to put your iDevice on an outlet where it can be charged.
