The iPhonegoizmo team have been researching the fitness apps that have been bombarding us from iTunes (25 released in the last three days alone). More on the results in a later post.
We have been intrigued by the different hardware now being made available in wearable form (eg Sony) and got to wondering:
Just what type of hardware are people willing to wear in their determination to get fit or have fun? Just how much oddness, or inconvenience is tolerable?
After all, some of this hardware is quite geeky, we thought! So we decided to ask! Below are a number of images of various fitness/sports hardware being worn. Just select the option you WOULD be prepared to be caught dead in!
a) Work out at the gym with Sony W series Wearable WALKMAN MP3 Player?
b) Go swimming with wearable waterproof H2O Audio iPod/headphone system?
c) Water sports with wearable waterproof iPhone system by H2O Audio?
d) Watch sports videos on the go with MyVu?
OK, now choose which, if any, you would be willing to be seen wearing?

Apple products are a generally beautiful. They are functional, technologically progressive, and… well, beautiful to behold. And to date other companies have not been tempted to put good advertising $ into the way their products look - at least, as far as they can.
But the success of iPhones may have finally demonstrated how much money there is to be made from ‘good design’ ! And Phillips has just thrown down the gauntlet. Just look at these little beauties:
They’re jewel encrusted earbuds, by the way!
Of course, Phillips are offering much more in their 2008 challenge than these delightful trinkets - BUT, the rest is very much in the “me too” basket. That is, most of the stuff they strutted at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show currently buzzing in Los vegas, look very much like copies of Apple designs rather than exciting new designs of their own (You can check out some of these at blogs.pcworld.com). So, NO, Phillips does not look set to raise the ante…
A pity, really!

I’ve just been playing with the javascript tool over at colorwarepc, and been designing a new “cool look” color scheme for my iPhone. You can do it too. Just follow the link and play with the colors (click the choices under “color options” in the right hand side bar)! Some changes are really cheap - but!! the full monty is exxy - but also sooo beautiful. Here is my iphone re-design - custom made by me:
These guys custom paint your iPhone to your specifications. So don’t worry about the one color iPhones are sold in: you can make your iPhone any color you want!
