I love my gadgets and gadget accessories. That's why I was pretty excited to try out my new Podsta iPhone Softgrip Holder. It's a handy little soft grip holder that lets you use your iPhone, iTouch or Smart Phone as more of a media display device because it frees you from constantly having to hold it in your hands.

Don't think you need a holder for your iPhone 4? Think again. The Podsta allows you to set your iPhone or iTouch on the table or desk in front of you and watch you tube videos, view your play lists or run your apps without having to have it in your hands.

It's made of a soft material that may remind you of a stress ball. This means that your phone will slide in and out of it with ease, unlike those hard plastic holders. To put it into portrait mode you simply just have to turn it over on it's side and you have a media screen right in front of you. The picture below is how I use the Podsta at my work desk during the day to check email and play my music. I just have to reach over and touch the screen. I don't have to pick it up and hold it to my face.

They say a picture says a thousand words but this promo video for the Podsta speaks volumes. You can see it action and view the different colors available. One last bonus about the PODSTA, the price. The PODSTA is only £9.95 + £2.00 shipping within USA & Europe.

I should have taken a better video before I did a restore on my iPhone 4. If you turn up the volume you can hear the possessed noise it was making while shutting off. It kind of spooked me so I did a restore.

Steve Jobs has trouble connecting iPhone 4 during the demo Monday. From what I read too many geeks were clogging up the system with their own wireless devices.
