We’ve been seeing a lot of gaming hacks in recent history. With RAZER building their FIONA gaming handset, Valve dwelling into a gaming console for the living room, it looks like graphics chip manufacturer NVIDIA is also developing their own console hardware. And it looks like a XBOX controller with a 5″ clamshell screen.
The guys from Griffin have been watching a lot of Saturday morning cartoons. They’ve been in bed with Nickelodeon (in wholesome lazy morning childlike ways) and were inspired to come up with playable stuffed toy cases for your favorite iDevices. From Dora, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to Spongebob Squarepants, your iPhone turns into an aDORAble plush toy for your toddler. Or for you. If it falls, it’s well protected!
Toshiba pulled this design off with their U925t Satellite and at this CES 2013, MSI also unveiled a similar tablet / laptop design that seems to be the new normal for what passes for as an Ultrabook running Windows 8. In the recent past, the ‘ultrabook’ was an extremely light SSD-based laptop with no optical drive. It pretty much was the MacBook Air for the PC. Today, the Ultrabook is really a laptop with a screen that slides parallel to the keyboard, turning it into a tablet. Expect to see more of these in the future.

Have you ever bought a phone case that seemed like it was wearing the phone for protection instead of the other way around? Well, this is one of those cases (pun intended!) where you’re sure your phone can survive a fall — even at 100,000 feet.
