Ever since it first started in 1967, the international trade show, CES has always been THE place where companies announce their latest gadgets. This year was no exception.

One particular gadget that was unveiled, that I would really like to get my hands on soon, is Parrot’s AR.Drone iPhone-Controlled Helicopter. Yes, that’s right a toy helicopter that is remotely controlled by your humble iPhone. What makes this flying this helicopter more exciting is that the Parrot AR.Drone has 2 cameras built-in so you can see exactly what your copter sees.

Perfect for urban spy missions or just scaring that pesky dog next door.

Don’t think it’s possible? Check out the video below and you’ll see what for yourself.

Was going through my Youtube subscription vids and found this latest video by CNet outlining Apple’s plans to make an iPhone that is compatible with most cellular networks. This will no doubt, strengthen Apple’s dominance in the smartphone field and will make many people on Verizon’s network very very happy.

I must admit I found Brian Tong amusing, especially when he gets hit in the head by Kensington Apple products

YouTube – CNET AppleByte: An iPhone for the world is on its way

News came in about iWorld’s newest release for their iPhone accessories and I must say that it holds a lot of promise. Introducing the Windshield Mount for iPhone and S7 Case w/ Battery for iPhone.  Two accessories that would make an iPhone user’s life a whole lot easier.

Judging from the photos of both products, it is a pretty interesting gadget that would really go nice with the iPhone 3G/3Gs.

The Windshield Mount comes with a flexible arm that allows you to adjust your iPhone at eye-level, you don’t have to strain your eyes when trying to access your iPhone programs and files.

You can choose between the Windshield Mount which sells for $29.95 RRP or the Windshield mount & Power Combo pack that comes with an in-car charger which allows you to charge your phone on the go at $49.95 RRP.

Another exciting product that iWorld is releasing is their S7 Case with Battery for iPhone.  Imagine the Dexim BluePack S7 Polycarbonate case with a built in 1500mAh lithium battery! This accessory would make you enjoy your iPhone longer  with up to 4.5 hours of talk time and adds 9 hours of video time as well.  At $ 89.95, RRP the S7 Case with battery is a sweet deal.

Check out these new accessories for your iPhone 3G/3Gs at iWorld.

I have to admit, I initially thought that this iPhone Thigh Band would be useful in meeting and vehicle environments however just the thought of accidentally leaving this on, quickly brought me back to reality.

Besides, who would pay $30 for one of these “ThiPhones” when you could just use an iPhone Sports Arm Band Case and tie it to your leg!?

What are your thoughts? Would you wear this?

Rather than use the conventional means of electricity to amplify your inbuilt iPhone speakers, the Griffin AirCurve iPhone Stand is a cleverly-designed acoustic gadget that turns your iPhone into a mini sound system that never needs batteries or adapters.

The Griffin AirCurve looks like a simple, elegantly minimal stand for your iPhone. But inside is a coiled waveguide “horn’ that collects the sound from the built-in speaker of your iPhone, amplifies it (by about 10 decibels), and projects it into the room. The Griffin AirCurve‘s waveguide has been mathematically engineered to deliver amazing amplification — you’ll swear there are full-sized speakers in there. And AirCurve’s see-through translucent polycarbonate body lets you appreciate the graceful curves inside that do all the work.

I’ve been flying more than I would have liked in the last 2 months and one thing that would have been handy would have been something like the iFlyz Plane iPhone Holder. It allows you to answer emails, play games, pre-write SMSes and take notes without putting too much burden on your hands.

Apparently you can get it for around $29.99. Bargain.

Looking to pimp up that boring new iPhone 3G of yours?

Here’s the list of my favorite iPhone 3G accessories available on the market:

1. B&W Zeppelin Speakers for iPhone 3G

These beautiful speakers from Bowers & Wilkins were released late last year. At the time we weren’t sure that they would support the iPhone 3G. Now that the iPhone 3G has been released we can confirm that they work seamlessly together. Check out the iPhone Speakers / B&W Zeppelin video which demonstrates this.

2. Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Headset

The Plantronics Discovery 925 is the best bluetooth headset I have played with to date. I know, I know there’s a lot of buzz about the new Aliph Jawbone but until I get my hands on one, the Plantronics Discovery 925 is my suggested iPhone bluetooth headset. Also waiting for Blueant’s Z9i to hit my desk!

3. Sennheiser MM iP iPhone Stereo / Mobile Headphones

The first high quality music headset for the iPhone. Upgraded music quality to take and make calls. Tailor-made for the iPhone.
