“Hammerhead Aura Case for iPhone 4”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?find=aura&refinecat=iPhone_Accessories|Cases_|iPhone_4

Protect your new iPhone 4 with the newest addition to the Hammerhead lineup.

With its Thermoplastic poly material it’s the perfect case to resist dust and fingerprints. The $14.99 price point won’t hurt your pocket and with its selection of colors, it’s the perfect addition to your new iPhone 4!

The “Sony BT140Qs”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/76735/sony-drbt140q-bluetooth-stereo-earset-silver/at_bis are some of the top rated, affordable headphones to incorporate Bluetooth wireless technology.

I ordered these to try out, and now I am absolutely relying on them. The sound quality is mediocre compared to most wired headphones, and this is definitely the tradeoff for the Bluetooth capability. However, the battery life is fantastic considering their size, coming in at around 4-5 hours.

I use these often with both my iPhone 4 and my MacBook Pro. They’re great in situations in which you are walking around and need your hands free. I’ve used these for everything from doing dishes to pull-ups. The signal from the iPhone is definitely far weaker than the MacBook Pro and has difficulty passing through the body, which means I need to keep the phone on the same side as the right earpiece which has the antenna.

On the other hand, it goes through a wall or two pretty well. All in all, I’m very happy with these earphones, and enjoy taking advantage of the wireless versatility.

Corliss Blakely, a life-long Vermont artist, is now painting on the iPhone and iPad, which has “opened up a new world for artists,” as she puts it. Corliss has translated her realistic style in oils to the new technologies, stating, “the world is changing and artists now have a wonderful new canvas to create on.” Corliss purchased an iPad at Small Dog the day they came out, and was the first artist in the world to display an iPad painting on the internet!

The iPad is a mobile studio: artists can now create without the toxic paints and mediums they have used for centuries.

Her favorite painting app on the iPad is ArtStudio.

Visit her site at www.ipadpaintings.com to see her paintings and demonstrations.
