Secrets. I love them when I know them, hate them when I don’t. If you attended iLounge’s monthly User Group meeting on Tuesday, you already know that Griffin Technology had four secret products in the bag, two of which the company says aren’t revolutionary, but two of which are. I can’t say much yet, but we’re currently testing two of them, one of which was announced today (the RoadTrip, right, as re-assembled by me into a mighty robot). More to come soon.
Speck Products also used the User Group meeting to announce four secret new products - 4G iPod-compatible versions of its Skin Tight, FlipStand, iStyle and Armband cases. We’re looking forward to seeing these, too.

Could it be time for the Bluetooth adapter? Or perhaps AirPort Express streaming?

Maybe Griffin could actually finish the RadioShark before they get too carried away with new stuff.
