NEW YORK--Another new iPod, another new chance for accessory makers to try something new.
As you know, CNET has been a fan of the Gelaskins. The company continues to deliver on its that's-so-simple -and-probably-cheap-to-make -why-didn't-I-think-of-it, yet practical and inexpensive vinyl protectors.
Yes, Gelaskins seems to be a one-trick pony. But you know what? It works.
The vinyl iPod, laptop and now iPhone protecting art that the company was showing at DigitalLife 2007 now comes with free desktop wallpaper to match.
The corresponding desktop art is downloadable from the Gelaskins Web site.
The "Steampunk" Gelaskin by Colin Thompson closely resembles the mysterious Antikythera Mechanism.
