iHome’s New Party Essentials


Every party requires music, most parties require really loud music, but the best parties need really loud music along with awesome lighting. iHome unveils their iP76 Color Changing Speaker Tower that will help you to do just that. Dock in your iPhone and select between different light modes: fading colors from one to another, pulsing to the music, or producing a strobe-like effect. It will be sure to get the party going.

This tower features four Reson8 technology speakers, Bluetooth wireless streaming, and an iPhone dock on the top. iHome plans to release this party starter in June for $200. 

Twelve South's Compass Got Hit With A Splash Of Color

One of our favorite accessory makers, Twelve South, has just released two new color selections for the Compass stand for the iPad and iPad 2. In addition to the raw, silvery aluminum Compass stand, a hot looking candy apple red and stealthy black colors now accompany the heavy gauge steel easel stand. The pocket sized Compass stand folds open to let you set your iPad, or iPad 2 in various different angles. And it also doubles as a typing workstation. See it in action in our full review right here. The new color additions will look great against the back aluminum of the iPad and iPad 2, and even pop more if you've got a white iPad 2. Twelve South's Compass is available now in all three colors for $39.99.

Atomic Diamondback, The Most Expensive Aluminum iPhone 4 Case

Oh yes, good looks are going to cost you a pretty penny these days and Atomic's new Diamondback aluminun hybrid case for the Verizon and AT&T iPhone 4 is the most expensive aluminum case for the iPhone 4 yet. The Diamondback is a full bodied case and not a bumper this time like Atomic's other offerings. The multi-dimensional back design is made using a CNC machine with a dedicated sleep/wake button which is shaped like a diamond, hence the name. It's available in 4 different colors for a whopping $200. If you've got the cash, expect the Diamondback to start shipping in about 2-4 weeks.

This is the real deal, a white Nexus S sporting an AT&T 3G bands and it's fully unlocked and officially real. Engadget managed to get some quality time with the white Nexus S from Google and Samsung and it looks like it's running Android 2.3.3, a.k.a Gingerbread. Aside from the AT&T bands, the white Nexus S has a textured back that makes gripping much better as well as a fingerprint-less experience.
