WINGStand by Kickstarter Project - - Transforms Your Keyboard into an iPad Stand

Getting a wireless keyboard was one of the best ideas you had for your Bluetooth devices right? That is, until they made a keyboard dock that essentially does the same thing, only a little bit better. The only thing is that you aren’t going to want to spend more money on another keyboard if you already have one, just because it holds your device up like a stand. An ingenious new Kickstarter project that will be hitting production soon will both fix your keyboard/stand problems, and make sure you don’t have to break the bank to do so.

WINGStand by Kickstarter Project

The WINGStand is a very cleverly designed bit of plastic that can hold up your Bluetooth device like a monitor for your wireless keyboard. It just snaps on to the back part of the keyboard and sits so it is at an ideal angle to type with. If you get in this project before it’s Kickstarter time limit ends, and pledge $20, you can have your very own WINGStand when they hit production. Every additional $15 after the initial $20 will be another one that they will send you.

HandyShell: Functional and Protective iPad Case - - Use Your iPad With Utmost Ease

We’re all looking for a case for our iPad that is going to be comfortable for us to hold, but also have functionality beyond a regular case. Seeing as the iPad can be kind of hard to just set to the side, a protective covering such as the HandyShell would be ideal so you can hang it up on a hook or prop it up.

This case is made out of polyurethane and polycarbonate housing that will give you all the protection you could want. It features a handle on the back of the case that can be rotated about 180 degrees. It’s not just a convenient stand though. This handle makes holding the iPad much easier, provides a sort of “neck” for the Guitar app, and can give you a way to hang the iPad on the wall. It does cost a pretty penny at $54.95, but it has a lot of functionality that will make it money well spent.

Nomad Paintbrush Stylus - - Let You Create Artistic Masterpieces Digitally on Your iPad

There are tons of artists out there who are intimidated by the old-fashioned tools and mediums. Mixing paints is much more of a hassle anymore, and buying a ton of paint and canvas can get expensive for those who want to paint just for the fun of it. The iPad wants you to be able to create some masterpieces, and not be reduced to finger-painting anymore.

For a bit of a throwback combined with our fancy-dancy iPad, we will now have access to this Nomad Paintbrush Stylus that will act as a real brush and not a solid circle to be dragged across the screen. At only $24, you can convert to electronic art if you’re already an experience painter, and sell prints in no time. Slowly but surely we are moving to a paperless society, and it’s a good thing we haven’t forgotten about our art.

Nafrotiti: Egyptian Princess-inspired iPhone and iPad Case - - Designed by Artist Vince Fraser With Modern and Futuristic Look

The first reaction when you hear about a new iPhone and iPad case is negative because of an overload and you come out saying, not another one! But if you see this one, you will fall in love with it. White Diamonds is a new accessory case company that has released a stunning iPhone and iPad cases. The highlight of the collection is called Nafrotiti. The image on the case is inspired by the Egyptian princess Nefertiti.

The case has been designed by artist Vince Fraser to whom Nefertiti is the epitome of unique and extraordinary beauty. The artist has caught the essence of the beauty of Nefertiti very well and managed to make it very modern and glamorous. It has a very futuristic look and still it is unmistakably Nefertiti.

The technology employed is, of course, very modern. It is a combination of digital illustration with photomontage. The use of Swarovski elements with the photomontage is ingenuous. The artist has used it to create the impression of a crown and at the same time it creates a very futuristic look. This is definitely not just another case. It is as attractive as the Egyptian Princess and will create a space for itself in any market. The pricing details are awaited.

MiLi HD iPad Dock: Features an HDMI Output And a Built-in Speaker With Volume Control on The Front

There aren’t a ton docks with output functionality for iOS devices that can hold the iPad. So when I saw the MiLi HD that has an HDMI out, I was rather pleased to say the least. This small dock has a very modern feel, and a sort of spacey design. It is white and a bright light blue, and looks round, but drops off into an angle for the dock. It’s not very big, so the blue band that runs around it goes up to act as a support leg where the body of the dock drops off.

The MiLi HD also has a built-in speaker, which you don’t really need since you have the HDMI out, but hey, who’s going to complain about convenience? There are volume controls on the front bottom section that would sit just below whatever device you’ve got on the dock. This little one will do all the normal charging and such like any good dock that’s worth it’s salt.

Clamcase: Not Only Protects Your iPad But Facilites You to Use It Like Netbook

Let's assume that you have an iPad, and you want to be able to use it as more of a netbook on the go. It’s understandable really, as it does provide a lot of the functionality of one. One of the biggest hurdles is the lack of a physical keyboard. You could always toss a small Bluetooth keybaord in your bag, but that’s not as easy to carry around and manage. Instead, you could try this Clamcase.

The Clamcase is simply a case that transforms your iPad into some sort of laptop. No, it’s not going to change the OS that’s installed, or add a mouse. However, it does give you a nice place to keep your tablet, and add the functionality of a keyboard, complete with Home, Search, Volume and Media keys. You can even swivel the screen around so that it is easier to view videos and utilize the touchscreen to its fullest when playing games. $120 is a heafty price for a case, but it might very well be worth it, depending on how you like to use your iPad.
