Snakes on Your BlackBerry

BlackBerry 8700 Python Snake Skin PouchIf you are wondering if this is the sequel for Samuel L. Jackson’s Snakes on A Plane, it is not. We are introducing real snake skins made into BlackBerry pouches to you. If you are gung-ho on reptiles, check out these python skins ranging from cream to brown colors to adorn your BlackBerry 8700s.

Please note that these leather are made from REAL snake skins sourced from Thailand and treated in Italy. They are then handmade in Canada by a premier bag-maker. The dark accents on the pouch you see are natural snake markings and not colored which means that no two pouches are the same. Each one is unique and in its own league.

The interior are made of very high-grade Italian pig suede; ensuring that your BlackBerry is pampered by the soft texture of the material. The sleeper magnet is placed under the fabrics and puts your BlackBerry 8700 in holstered mode regardless of the direction you insert your phone.

There are multiple colors to choose; Cream, Taupe, Grey, Yellow, Brown and Glossy Brown. You can obtain your snake skin pouch from GizmoSkin for $99.95.

The craze is on for Apple iPhone and the beautiful interface unveiled in the recently concluded MacWorld Conference 2007. So hot is the interface that it has reached BlackBerry shores in the form of BlackBerry themes. You can now have your very own iPhone theme on your BlackBerry (for 7100s and 8700s models only).

This is an example of how the iBerry theme would look like on a 7100.

Monaco Apex Hydro Pouch for BlackBerry 8700 Series

Monaco Apex Hydro Case for BlackBerry 8700There are some who do not favor the swivel holster that comes with the BlackBerry 8700 devices. It feels rigid and does not protect the body of the BlackBerry device from knocks and scratches. Furthermore, it feels (a matter of perception) as if the BlackBerry device can fall off the holster anytime.

The Monaco Apex Hydro Pouch on the other hand, provides the comfort that the BlackBerry device is securely held. Made of hydro-foam, the pouch is simple, clean and looks professional (mainly because it is black in color). Apart from that, the pouch is durable, versatile, compact and has a ratcheting metal clip which allows you to rotate your BlackBerry vertically or horizontally.

Being a pouch, the Monaco Apex Hydro case offers all round protection for your BlackBerry; absorbing shocks because of its soft padding and is water resistant. With an opening at the top, your BlackBerry will slip in and out easily and while placed in the pouch, the Sleeper function is activated.

The Monaco Apex Hydro Pouch is compatible with the BlackBerry 8700c, 8700g, 8700r and 8703e. You can get a unit of this pouch from Blackberryden at $19.95.
