The Griffin Woogie. Your kids will never give your iPhone back again.

Griffin Technology today announced a partnership with ScrollMotion, makers of the Iceberg Reader. The result? The new Griffin Woogie.

The Woogie is a soft and huggable iPhone enclosure that is part stuffed animal and part protective case. It has two built-in speakers1 to play with Iceberg Kids eBooks, music, videos, and more. The Woogie’s six appendages are made from soft, non-toxic fabrics and allow for easy carrying and tuck underneath to prop your iPhone up for handsfree viewing.

If the bright screen and fun apps weren’t enough to keep your kids fixated on your iPhone, stuffing it inside this fuzzy green asterisk from Teletubbyland will certainly ensure that your phone will soon be indelibly regarded as theirs. But at least it will keep them quiet.

The Woogie, $19.99 USD, is now available from Griffin’s website. The free Woogie Sesame Street Sampler is available in the App Store. Additional apps and content from Iceberg Kids are available in the App Store.

Build a Porsche out of orange peals… in Photoshop, obviously

gold orange porsche medium2 20080910 194530 Build a Porsche out of orange peals... in Photoshop, obviouslyI’ve been meaning to post a link to this tutorial for a while now and while everyone is still talking about the new iPods and the array of cases, docks, speakers and FM transmitters that have been or will be adjusted to fit them, it seems like a nice diversion.

Orange Porsche. Fruit Skin is a tutorial from Alfoart that will ultimately teach you how to apply any texture to any object in a realistic way. For a donation via PayPal, you can download the Photoshop file for yourself and deconstruct how it was created as you follow the freely available tutorial step by step.

Amazing work.

iPod earbuds not big enough for you? Try these!

500xl 648 20080123 203216 iPod earbuds not big enough for you? Try these!From day one, many iPod users complained that the earbuds packaged with the media device were uncomfortably large. They ain’t seen nothing yet!

From worldwidefred.com come the 500XL Speakers that look like ginormous iPod earbuds.

we took a puny pair of earbuds, put them in Fred’s highly technical Way Big machine, and created 500XL – it’s 500 times the size of the original!

The 500XL includes a built-in amp and 3-way power (batteries/USB/AC Adapter–not included).

Since there doesn’t seem to be any information available on the price of the 500XL and the product image is quite obviously Photoshopped, it doesn’t look like it’s ready to ship or even pre-order.
