Hinting at the end of
Apple's offers for 2008-2009, the Mac maker's online store is featuring three new sections dedicated to iPhone, Mac, and iPod add-ons, including countless accessories and software.
Everything for iPhone includes cases, hands-free headsets, bluetooth car kits, charge stations, and docks. “Make your new iPhone happy. Very happy. Explore a hand-picked selection of the best iPhone accessories for every budget,” Apple says. Currently, the best iPhone accessories that money can buy (in Apple's opinion) are listed as follows:
- Incase Power Slider Case for iPhone 3G - $99.95;
- Sena WalletBook Case for iPhone 3G (Red) - $49.95;
- Iqua Vizor SUN Bluetooth Car Kit - $119.95;
- Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base for 2 iPod or iPhone Models - $49.95;
- Apple iPhone Bluetooth Headset - $99.00;
- Sennheiser MM50 iP Stereo Headset for iPhone - $99.95;
- Logitech Pure-Fi Express Plus Omnidirectional Speaker Dock - $99.95.
To “give your new Mac what it wants,” Apple suggests customers explore another hand-picked selection of products, this time comprised of peripherals and software for every computer model, as well as for every wallet. Ranging from $99.00 to $149.95, Mac fanatics can choose from at least seven must-have items:
- Altec Lansing Expressionist Bass FX3022 Speakers - $129.95 (the aluminum iMac's speakers are not very powerful, as everyone can agree);
- AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n and AirTunes - $99.00;
- Western Digital 500GB My Book Studio Edition - $149.95 (if you think you're safe enough with just one hard-drive holding all your media,
think again); alternately, Apple also recommends the
Western Digital 320GB My Passport Essential Portable Hard Drive (Black) - $119.95;
- Office 2008 for Mac - Home and Student Edition - $134.95 (for those who take their work at home);
- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - $54.95 (for the Mac user and hardcore gamer), along with the Apple-recommended
Logitech Dual Action Gamepad, priced at
$19.95.
Lastly, the company sets forth some attractive iPod gear, including the
Logitech Pure-Fi Anywhere Speakers for
$129.95, the
newly-released Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic - $79.00, a
Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base, good for 2 iPod or iPhone models, priced at
$49.95, and more. Drivers, for instance, can opt for a
Monster iCarPlay Wireless 250 FM Transmitter with AutoScan ($99.95), to avoid getting involved in an accident.
