Nyko, who is famous for making accessories for gamers, has now created a case for the Nintendo DSi that allows the user to make full use of the DSi’s camera feature.
The Nyko Zoom Lens has an 8x zoom lens which will improve the shots that you take on the DSi, but you have to admit, it will be hard to change the quality of something that only has 0.3 megapixels in the first place.
You should be able to purchase it for about $25.

The Internet is buzzin’ about Google Wave despite the fact that only a select number of individuals, and their friends, are actually able to use the service.
We kind of know what it does, we kind of know how it works, but today Google told us something we didn’t know; it’s going to feature it’s own app store off sorts. That’s right, developers will actually be able to produce Wave extensions and upload them to the store from which users can purchase said extensions.
It’s a cool feature, but we’ll have to wait until Google announces more like how much the typical extension will cost until we pass final judgment.

Still confused? Check out the above video demonstration and let us know what you think.

We suspected this was going to happen and we might see the universal phone charger standard appear sooner then we think. The International Telecommunication Union, which is a branch of the UN, has approved the microUSB as a future universal phone charger.
Why does the UN care about phone chargers? It all comes down to waste and pollution. A universal charger would save 51,000 tons of waste if it were already in use. That’s why the UN cares so much about the charging standard. Unfortunately the universal charging solution will fully be adopted by 2012 which means that we’re looking at even more unnecessary waste that could have been avoided! At least we’re hoping that by that time most carriers and cell phone makers out there will switch to the UCS.

Tired of the same default looking stands for your iPhone or iPod Touch? Well here is one straight from Japan. Called the iCooly iPod Touch Stand, this iPod accessory virtually transforms your iPod into a mini iMac.

No word on when it would be available nor the price but you can be sure it will come out first in Japan and then hopefully internationally.

Let us go a bit retro, recalling the ancient time of rotary dialed phones. Apparently these old phones now have another use, modified to accommodate iPods and hence come up with the RotariPhone iPod Dock. The iPod is docked on where the handset is usually placed. Tilt it upwards and then place you iPod or iPhone and then play the tunes you want to hear. The speakers are the hearing and mouth piece, an ingenious design that should put some difference on the iPod docks available in the market today.
