At first I wasn’t sure this was a good idea, but some people might just love this. Meet Opena, the first (to my knowledge) bottle opener and case for the iPhone 4/4S all-in-one. The Opena case is compatible with all iPhone 4 models, and is available in black or white for $39.95 each. Here’s how it works, the Opena is designed to be a hard protective case for your iPhone, and then when in need it has a slide-out bottle opener. It’s certainly a unique twist for iPhone cases — Now does it offer liquid damage protection? Negative. Regardless it might be a very cool present this Holiday season.

Accessorize Mobile Team — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 00:44:07 +0000

Normally we cover the latest smartphone accessories, but I thought this might be news worthy. I visit OtterBox.com every couple of days to see what’s new. Today I was amazed to see the term “iProtection” with a trademark symbol beside them. After a quick search at the United States Patent & Trademark Office shows that Otter Products LLC (also known as OtterBox) was granted the trademark on September 7, 2011.

As you might know, OtterBox is known for their awesome selection of iPhone, iPad, and iPod cases. Most notabily their Defender Series for the iPhone, which protects your device from dirt, dust, bumps, and drops. You can check out the latest iProtection at OtterBox.
