Found in: Music, News5 great iPhone war games for under $5
My big combined December birthday/Christmas present from my wife and kids this year was an XBox 360, complete with Live account and games. For two weeks, while the rest of the house slept, I played Fallout 3, saving the residents of a post-apocalyptic Washington D.C. from super mutants, feral ghouls, human slavers and fascist genetic purists posing as American patriots.

The AirCurve from Griffin is old school. The clear polycarbonate stand amplifies music from your iPhone acoustically—as in, no electricity, no speakers, just the curvature of its mold. It works shockingly well, giving your iPhone a 10-dB boost. Unfortunately, the iPhone speaker itself produces a trebly, tinny sound and there's no shape in the world that can help pump up the bass. This makes the AirCurve a great way to amaze your friends and a convenient way to increase the volume on conference calls, but for turning your iPhone into a real sound system, you're going to need something that... read more
