New for iPhone 3G: Frame Case
We’ve taken a best of both worlds approach to designing our new Frame Case for iPhone 3G. The Frame Case is a hybrid of sorts, combining the durability of a hardshell plastic case with the secure fit of our popular Protective Cover for complete iPhone 3G protection. Flexible, injection-molded material provides a secure fit and added grip while framing a translucent, hardshell plastic back panel for added durability.
Available in vibrant hues of Muted Cyan, Vivid Orange and Vivid Green, the Frame Case is the latest entry to our expanding array of protective solutions for iPhone 3G. Purchase Frame Cases now through our webstore and at Apple retail locations.

Courier Collection: Skate Messenger Bag
Pairing the best aspects of conventional bike messenger bags with our signature device-driven functional features and industrial design aesthetic, the Courier Collection provides durability, waterproofing and ease-of-use every professional courier can come to rely on. The Skate Messenger Bag is a signature product within the collection, robust in its design and functionality.
From the heavy denier Cordura Nylon construction, waterproof lining and padded inset notebook compartment to the custom skateboard attachment with injection-molded skate bumpers and integrated, removable hip pack, the Skate Messenger Bag is a travel-ready protective solution for essential gear.
The Skate Messenger Bag served as the template for the limited edition HUF and DQM Skate Messenger Bags. All three bags share the same silhouette and functional features.

And head’s up, every two weeks from here on out Steven will be hosting Bang-Ga-Wrong on Thursday nights at Verdugo Bar. Please come, and then come again and again. Tropical attire optional… but of course, always encouraged.
Mess with Texas 3 at SXSW Report
Oh SXSW, how I love and hate thee. Even a week after the spectacle of it all, the shockwaves still reverberaaaaaate. Allergies? The flu? Exhaustion and insomnia? Pale tongue? Cognitive dissonance? Joint aches? Flat feet? Back pain? Random groaning sounds? Almost total disorientation 24-hours a day? Maybe all the above.
All I know is this— my time in Texas during SXSW was a blur of bands, BBQ and body odor, which is exactly how it always is. This time, however, the morning after arriving home from four days in the bright heat of Austin, I awoke with the most awful illness I’ve experienced in years. Were it not for my reddish, sunburned complexion and lurker beard, I’d certainly look like a sallow, yellow zombie even as I type this now. No sleep, very little food and terribly too much music good and bad… this is the common refrain of most music conference attendees, especially of those returning from SXSW.
