Cool iPad Accessories / add-ons
Seems about time to start a thread like this... got my e-flyer from ThinkGeek today, and it has this gem for iPad owners:
Quote:
Enter the iCade iPad Arcade Cabinet ! To use the iCade, gently slide the iPad into the docking cradle. The docking cradle uses a standard 30 pin connector to link the iPad to the professional-grade arcade controls. Once the iPad is in place, launch the iCade App (available free in the App Store April 3rd) and it's game on!
We didn't want to take any chances you'd run out of juice during your favorite game, so we included a 10w USB power adapter so you can charge the iPad through any electrical outlet.
Now you're all set to make an uninterrupted run on the Dig Dug World Record!

That would be an awesome product, very retro. I love some of the older games from when I used to skip school and go hang out at the arcade

i-rui: I nearly cried tears of joy when I saw that. It means there are some honestly creative people out there.
Who wouldn't want to saw open a Tauntaun and get cozy? Beats the hell out of a Snuggy or whatever the heck those are called.
