The Love Box lets you record different angles with your iPhone

This handmade video mixer for the iPhone 4/4S, created by Honest & Smile, allows you to record two sided videos. You simply slide the device in, adjust the mirrors and angles slightly and start shooting your video. What a great idea!
We're not really sure why it's called 'The Love Box', but presume it's so you can capture both sides of a loving couple's conversation?! However it's designed to be used we think it's pretty cool, and would be great for getting a quick video of an informal interview or remembering a fun meal with a friend.
Check out a video of The Love Box in action.
Available from thelovebox.com for $90.

Leaf wireless mouse runs off its own kinetic energy

We're not quite sure how the Leaf mouse works... but know a device that's powered off its own kinetic energy sounds much more economical than one which needs its batteries changing every week!
The design looks really slick and ergonomical too, ideal if you depend on a mouse everyday and can't stand fooling around with the trackpad.
Like most of the amazing ideas on Yanko Design, the Leaf is just a concept now. But watch this space, any product which uses alternative forms of energy is bound to be a big hit over the next year.

iKeyboard makes it easy to type on the iPad

If you're looking for a better way to type on your iPad when you're writing emails and documents, then you'd usually have to get a Bluetooth keyboard or attach the device to a dock rather than tap away on the touchscreen. But, those kind of accessories can be really awkward to carry around, which is why we love the idea behind the iKeyboard, a kind of overlay for your iPad that makes it much easier to type quickly.
The iKeyboard is a light film that sits over the iPad's screen and has depressed keys, meaning you can still use the touchscreen capabilities, but you're less likely to make mistakes and slip around!

Gelaskins launches Hardcase range for the iPhone

We've been fans of Gelaskin's bright and quirky gadget skins for some time now, combining tough and glossy materials with all kinds of unique designs. However, at CES this year the company revealed its Hardcase range for iPhone 3, 3G, 4 and 4S devices, which we may just love even more.
As you'd expect the cases are pretty durable while still keeping your device slim and they also manage to cover all of the necessary edges without affecting any of the iPhone's functionality. All of Gelaskin's image library can be added to the Hardcase range now too, so you can choose from beautiful works of art to intricate patterns.
Our favourite? Probably the bright geometric pattern above called Intermezzo, but really we're spoilt for choice!
Check out the full collection at Gelaskins.

Your fashion sense is impeccable, friends call your music tastes eclectic,yet you have the same iPhone case as millions of other people?
Personally customize all the cases or skins for your devices with Skinit, the pioneers in skins, which now has a fun Customizer tool for cases, to show off your unique style.
At CES, Skinit.com debuted the new line of cases which can be personalized - just like its skins. With the Customizer, consumers can upload any image and create custom protective covers that fit perfectly with thousands of devices from mobile phones, laptops, gaming systems, tablets and even medical devices.
I don't know that a Hello Kitty skin on a defibrillator is going to give patients much confidence however.

The Genius Ring makes powerpoint presentations a breeze

So there are plenty of gadgets and gizmos designed to make giving presentations easier, but do any look as cute as this!? And no, it's not because it's pink (it actually comes in much better shades, like blue, silver and green too).
The Genius Ring doesn't just allow you to toggle through presentations either, you can move a cursor around the screen and operate other programs too, all just with the ring. It works with a built-in laser pointer, meaning you can be up to ten metres away from any screen or board and it'll still work accurately.
Maybe giving presentations isn't as nerve-wracking as we thought?!
Available from Genius for $69.99.

LOOPO: Never lose a USB stick again

USB sticks are so handy, but no matter what clips they come with, or where you keep them you're guaranteed to lose one at least once a month.
This is why we love the LOOPO, a neat little USB device that comes with a small clasp, allowing you to clip it onto pretty much everything!
So where would you keep yours? Diary, necklace, keys?

Knit your own tech accessories

Instead of investing in a pricey case for your phone or MP3 player, why not get crafty and knit one yourself...
This clever little kit from Uncommon Goods comes with all the necessary equipment you need to make a case as well as a cosy covering for your headphones to stop them getting tangled.
Of course you could be super creative and make your own pattern to follow, but for now we think we'll stick with the knitting kit.
