It’s all been very exciting this week in the Mobile Fun office as we’ve had the team from C5’s Gadget Show filming in our warehouse! Here’s a pic of the lovely Ortis & Suzy in the building:
Aside from hobnobbing, it’s been business as usual. Here are some kernels of news for you:
When the Parrot AR.Drone RC Quadricopter was released it was exclusive to HMV, but that’s no longer the case and we’ve got our hands on this brilliant iOS-controlled quadricopter. The gadget can be controlled using iPhone, iPod or iPad and used indoors or outdoors. It also features two onboard cameras so that you can get a birds-eye view, onboard WiFi technology & augmented reality games available from the App store. See the press release.

We’ve now got in the KeyCase Faux Leather Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab, a sturdy polyurethane case with a built-in physical QWERTY keyboard. The KeyCase for iPad was a great hit, generating massive sales, so getting in the Galaxy Tab version was a no-brainer really – we just hope it proves as popular! Press release here.
We also have what we believe to be the first solar iPad case available in the UK (let me know if you know differently!), which might seem a little ambitious at this time of year, but the snowdrops have started poking their heads up so it can’t be too long until Spring’s here and the sun comes out! Unti then, this leather iPad charging case can provide your iPad with an some extra OOMPH on the go (6600mAh, to be precise) and approximately double your surfing time.
For HTC Desire HD & Desire Z users (like meee!), here’s a way to stream media wirelessly to your computer screen or HDMI-ready telly with the HTC Media Link DLNA Adaptor. You can read the full press release here.
And over at our sister site, GearZap:
We’ve got the largest variety of Gelaskins available in the UK, and we’ve just added to it with a new range of PS3 Gelaskins imported from the US. They’re great quality, and let you customise your devices to really let your personality shine through. I’m a big fan of the Exploding Dog designs (one of my favourite webcomics!)

If you’re looking for something fun for the Kindle then we’ve some great Kindle sleeves available from Built – just something a bit more interesting than your standard black or brown case! See the range from them here.
