iHome has been making some interesting Apple accessories for a long time now, and the company has a new one that has launched called the iDM5.

iPhone mini will be ‘half the size’
While it may be the popular thing to spread the word about over the past few weeks, the idea that the next Apple product might just be a tiny iPad is simply out of the question - so says analyst Trip Chowdhry. It's not because Steve Jobs said a smaller iPad would be silly, and not because Apple doesn't have the ability to create such a product, but because the "six- to eight-inch" market is a "very congested space," this according to Chowdhry. He continued by predicting that instead what we'll be seeing is an iPhone mini, a device which might be more "complimentary" to the iPad than the current iPhone's size and shape.

Rubbery keys, short travel or unwanted bulk have each taken their toll, leaving iPad owners with a tendency for text-entry to keep looking for the ideal model. Has Logitech got the recipe right? Read on for the SlashGear review.
