this is a diversion from their botched attempts to release the Radio Shark.  It’s a “wag the dog” strategy for Griffin ...

Please come out with something useful, like a line in for recording. (and I’m not talking about the useless iMic garbage, I want a REAL line in, RCAs preferably)

A line in would be great however isn’t that the responsability of Apple and a firmware upgrade? For the mic in it’s at 16 bit and 8 khz… pretty small. Not good for taking the minidisc trophy for small and compact line in/ mic recording.

I find ‘em quite cool.. lasers are now illegal to sell (and probably use) in Spain although they are still pretty easy to find in chinese shops.

The flashlight one seems like the more “useful” of the two, its the kind of thing that you keep “just in case” but u never really use, and when u do need it, u didnt bring it…

Hehe cool, i want them, yes they are pointless but isnt 90% of the world…

How about releasing the RADIOshark instead of all these lame add ons.

neat, but useless in most cases…. make that 99% of the time =/

how many more pointless addons will they release before the serious/useful ones come out?

Sounds cool to me. I can’t understand all the hate for these type of gadgets. I’d buy one.

More great ideas from the labs of Griffin Tech and just in time for the holiday gift giving season!

* iBrush - The premier electric toothbrush attachment for your iPod.  The MicroSonicOscillator™ scrubs your teeth to the rhythm of your favorite playlist! Perfect the on-the-go generation who prefer to travel light, or for when you need a quick brush-up for that serendipitous hook-up!  Baby!

* iCan -  Need to open a can of tuna and can’t find the can opener?  Not a problem with this state-of-the-art iPod Accessory.  Just pop it in your earbud port and BAAM! those finicky cans of tuna will never know what hit ’em.  Also great for canned corn.

*  iSlice - Forget your carving knife on Thanksgiving day.  No sweat!  The iSlice carving attachment is guaranteed to give you perfect slices every time.  Truly a cut above the rest!

* iBrew - The iBrew is perfect for reheating those neglected half-consumed cups of coffee. Made with a space-age tungsten micro-filament, the iBrew is simple to use.  Just clip the BrewStick™ on the lip of your standard coffee house paper coffee cup, replace the cap, and then plug the BrewBlock™ into your earbud jack.  Your coffee is hot in minutes!  Plug your earbuds into the BrewBlock’s patent pending earbud port and you are java-jammin!

All iPod accessories are available as a key chain charm or sheathed in ready to wear fashion holster.  Designer colors available as custom orders (additional $70).  Sorry, not available in monkey, retro AV gear, or healing crystal motifs.

Man, this is awsome. I mean, what’s cooler than listening to your entire music colletion and being able screw around with people (with the laser pointer) with one tiny little device. Now all they need is WiFi.
