The iPhone Is Finally Cool

Gizmodo AU


Seriously, what would the world be like without crazy Japanese peripherals like the iPhone Dock Fan? Probably a lot hotter, that’s for sure.

The dock fan, which comes in its own iPhone-esque case, plugs into the 30-pin dock connector on your iPhone and is activated by a switch on the device. It rotates 90 degrees, so you can fan either perpendicular or in line with your Apple handset.

My Japanese is nowhere near good enough to try and work out how much the peripheral costs, but the next time you find yourself in Akihabara, grab one for me, will you?

      actually the iphone 4 is the only smartphone you would even think of doing this on, as far as battery concerns go. my htc desire was puss in comparison and i dont think any other smart phones do any better…

    So…there is no “app for that” and by that I mean the fan? you actually need to plug in a fan? Now I’ll never get an iPhone, I’d rather get an iPad and fan myself with it.

    Apparently, according to this website (google translate it): http://www.jtt.ne.jp/shop/product/iphone_dock_fan/index.html it is 1,260 YEN, which in today’s currency is AUD $14.55

    There is no doubt that Iphone is better than Android. Iphone has more unique features than Android and mind blowing apps.
