Review: iFrogz MyFrogz Custom Luxe Case

iFrogz has started a new line of iPhone cases that let you customize the colors to suit your taste. Essentially it's their Luxe case, but now it's customizable.  Here is how it works. You head out to your local retailer and you purchase an Activation kit (a.k.a. a clear case and a redeemable code). They provide you with a clear case to give you something tangible to use and protect your phone until your new custom case arrives.  Once you are home and  you have your code handy you can either use the iPhone app (MyFrogz) or go to the iFrogz website and customize your case.  iFrogz sent me a redeemable code to review it, so I didn't have the opportunity to get the full experience with the clear case. 

I used the iPhone app to make my customizations and it was extremely easy.  There are two sections to the case - a top and a bottom, and you can flip through the available colors to get that perfect look for you. There were 25 colors (solid & semi-transparent) available on top and 18 solid colors on the bottom.  If you want a case  to be uniform, simply select the same color for both top and bottom.  I chose a two tone to get close to my favorite Maroon & Orange team, but they didn't offer a Maroon, so I went with Cherry Red and it was acceptable for me. If you want to be able to see your Apple logo on the rear of the phone, choose one of the semi-transparent frost colors.

Review: Proporta Wallaby iPod Wallet

Have you ever wanted to keep your cash with your tunes? The new Wallaby iPod Wallet will allow you to do just that. It's a high quality handmade leather wallet witha a dash of style for the iPod Nano lover.

If features 5 compartments plus one additional one for your iPod Nano (4g). If features an all handmade black leather exterior which is accented by green stitching around the parameter.

You can comfortably fit your debit cards into the inside compartments, but it offers no long conpartments to keep fully extended currency. I think this had to be omitted to enable you to have a spot to wrap your iPod earbuds around. While I like that option, I'd rather have a spot to keep my cash extended, instead of being folded. Also omitted is an identification window for your license or student ID. This is a basic feature found in all wallets, and should have been included in this one.
