What The: Mophie iPhone Case That Enables Streaming TV?
After creating the title for this article, I’m strongly considering starting a series titled “What The:” that cover really cool concepts coming to life on the iPhone that I would’ve never thought of myself, which puts me into total awe that somebody came up with such a cool idea AND pulled it off. And in this case, could likely end up becoming Your Next App.
Mophie, a company now famous for its Juice Pack cases that charge up your phone as an external battery whilst in the case (thus giving your iPhone one additional battery), announced a Juice Pack TV case at CES 2010. This case will allow you to view FLO TV on your iPhone, effectively combining a case, external battery, and mobile TV receiver all into one.
We don’t really know much about how it’ll work yet, but I am pre-emptively assuming that an iphone app will still be required in order to accept the TV accessory, as is permitted now with OS 3.x. It’s 2 mm thicker than the standard Juice Pack case, and CES showed off demo units in red and black. The Juice Pack TV will be popping its head out for sale sometime first half 2010. We don’t know any price details yet, but I personally am expecting to see it around $100 or higher.
