Welcome back to This Week in Accessories. This week, we're taking a look at a unique iPhone 5 case, inexpensive earphones, and more. Make sure to come back next week when our special edition will focus on the perfect iOS accessory for Mother’s Day.
NetCam HD Wi-Fi Camera from Belkin
The newest addition to the NetCam product family, the NetCam HD Wi-Fi Camera is now available to purchase after first being shown off at CES 2013. Providing HD video and clear digital audio, the camera works directly with the free app available to download in the App Store. The streamlined setup process only takes a few steps for the camera to be fully operational and transmitting video. Along with a wide-angle lens and infrared capabilities to see in little or no light, users can also record live video to their iOS device and receive motion detection email alerts.
Retailing at $149.99, the camera can be purchased through Belkin’s site, Amazon.com, Target, and other retailers.
NuForce NE-650M
An enhanced version of the original NE-600 Series earphones, the new NE-650M is now available from NuForce. The earphones are highlighted by an 11mm driver and aerodynamic acoustic porting system to provide harmonically correct tonality and strong acoustic isolation. A microphone button also allows for hands-free call answering and music playback control.
The black earphones retail for $44.95 and can be purchased from Amazon.com.
The STATION
The unique STATION caddy is now available on Bite My Apple. Measuring in at 11 inches long and 4 inches wide, the caddy is made of bamboo and has three different storage spaces – for a smartphone, for a pen, and for whatever else you can think of. An iPhone or other handset can be placed in portrait orientation and easily removed for an incoming call or text message.
Preorders are now available for the caddy. It is available for $39.99, and shipping will begin in mid-May.
