I can’t believe that it’s been almost eight years since we had a review of an Incipio case on The Gadgeteer! Back then, the review was of a generic PDA case. Today I have three iPhone very different cases for you to take a look at.

Do you prefer a simple case for your iPhone, or one that has all sorts of extra features built in? I think that there is a fine line between getting more for your money and having too much of a good thing. Let’s see where the GizMac Titan Clear case falls in that range…

Released in November of last year, the latest offering of Opera Mini, version 4, hasn’t really sent shockwaves through the World of cell phones. Whilst the iPhone browser (which I think is very annoying!) has been hailed as a revolutionary success, Mini has taken the sidelines slightly, but as I have learned, this isn’t really a position it deserves.

In what was initially estimated to be a $2K - $3K process, Paul Knight used what is likely millions of dollars worth of sophisticated Penn State University science lab equipment to… pimp his iPhone. All due respect of course; the result of his labors is without a doubt the hottest iPhone on the planet. Knight used a $250,000 scanning electron microscope to analyze the iPhone’s elemental composition and did a great deal of research to determine exactly what processes he would use to increase the iPhone’s durability and enhance the wow-factor. The technologies he landed on: TiN and TiAIN; material-coatings that are used to strengthen hard cutting tools, jet engine blades and surgical implants among other things. Knight’s finished product is sleek, sophisticated and extremely durable. His thread is definitely worth reading through if you have a few minutes and some patience. Remember, gen[m]ay is a forum like any other. While you’re busy trying to follow Knight’s time line you’ll be interrupted by plenty of off-topic gems. For example, Knight’s description of the TiN-coating process performed by the “plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition” tool might garnish a response like, “Can iPhones edit Excel or Word documents?” Ahhh forums. After seeing the reaction to his work, Knight has decided to source the process outside of PSU and offer his services to the public. Hit KnightCreations for details on how you can have Paul pimp your iPhone, iPod Touch or 3G iPod nano. No word yet on pricing.

In case you’ve forgotten, ZodTTD is the same group that brought NES and Playstation emulation to the iPhone / iPod Touch. With snes4iphone they’ve tackled, well yeah, SNES. Looking back from Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, it’s easy to forget how great Super Nintendo was. Star Fox, Super Smash Bros, Tecmo Super Bowl, Bebe’s Kids… The list of classics goes on and on. Now thanks to ZodTTD, all 16 bits of glorious gaming fury can be enjoyed on your mobile. Gameplay is fast and smooth, portrait and landscape modes are supported as is game-state saving. There is still some work to do such as adding audio support, but it’s more than usable as is. Add the ZodTTD source in Installer.app to load it up or click through for the download. If ZodTTD can throw a little Sega Genesis into the mix, they’ve got our seal of approval for sure.

Remember when Steve Jobs told us that the iPhone SDK would be available by the end of February? Yeah, well, we’re nearing the end of the aforementioned month, and there’s still no word from Cupertino on the status of the coveted developers kit. Could it be…delayed? Adding fuel to the fire, Business Week has revealed that a “reliable source” informed them that the SDK will be arriving between 1-3 weeks late. So very sad. Delays are nothing new in the technology world, but the more often a company promises and fails to deliver, the less faith we have in their word. Come on, Apple. Step it up and let us get our Adobe Flash on.

The market is telling them what it wants - they’ll continue to not listen:
China Mobile, the No. 1 cell company in China, claims there are 400,000 unlocked iPhones running on its network. That’s more than 10 percent of the 3.7 million Steve Jobs announced Apple had shipped through mid-January.

NEW YORK, USA (AVING) — Otter Products introduced its semi-rugged case for iPhone ‘OtterBox’ at the 2008 MACWORLD Conference & Expo.
The OtterBox for iPhone includes a polycarbonate shell that snaps together to safeguard the device and a scratch-resistant polycarbonate membrane to protect screens from dust and light water intrusion.
“Traditionally our OtterBox for iPod line has been completely rugged, but when the iPhone was introduced we wanted to offer an option that paralleled the look of the device while still providing protection from drops, dust and scratches,” said Curt Richardson, CEO of Otter Products, LLC.

The well known and respected iPhone hacker Nate True has discovered some very, very interesting information concerning Apple’s latest update, 1.1.3. According to Mr. True, the boys and girls in Cupertino have all but prepped the device’s OS for native applications, altering the functionality of SpringBoard to display additional apps, changing the ownership of applications to a unified “mobile” user, and moving the location of preferences to the accompanying non-root directory. Additionally, SpringBoard now boasts widget support via a class called SBWidgetApplication. All of these technical and seemingly minor details will apparently make it easier for developers to create new applications for the phone, though Nate says they’ll also break existing native apps in the process. All we ask is that developers get those NES and SNES emulators ported quickly and safely to the new system.
