The very pink iPod Nano Case

By Abby McVay on Thursday, Jul 10th 2008 No Comments

pink ipod nano caseI apologize, but it’s apparently a pink day. This does happen on occasion, it’s usually a sign that I’m about to be very ill. I can never decide if I’m writing up more pink stuff because I’m running a fever or if the pink stuff causes the illness. I’ll get back to you on that one.

Well this latest pink gear is a Nano case that even features a cute little face, as if the pink weren’t sweet and innocent enough. They of course had to add ears and that whole bear face. On the back of the case is a spot to wind the earbuds cord around, which is convenient, but it’d make it difficult to fit into your pocket.

At least it comes with a lanyard though. Maybe we can get a review unit of this in too and Vincent will have yet another thing to make poor Ann wear. The case itself is from Focal Point Computer, but beyond that there aren’t any details on the product.

On occasion I do get sucked in like most women, into falling for gadgets that are disgustingly feminine. These speakers would happen to be one of those things, but in my defense it does come in colors besides pink.

It has been a while since I’ve managed to dig up a story involving the Solid Alliance, I was worrying that my favorite seller of overly shiny USB devices had given up.  Without the Solid Alliance, who would I have to bash on over and over?!
