Now there’s an app for that too!

March 11th, 2010

Words can’t describe how much I love these magnets from Jailbreak Toys. There seems to be so much out there for iPhone tragics like me, but they’re not all as functional as these!

Whatever you want to do… There’s an app for that. That’s right. Whether you want to buy movie tickets, read the news, write a review, pay a tip, catch a taxi, or even train your dog, there’s an app for that. But what if you want to hang a photo on the fridge? Or leave a note on the microwave? Or save that Chinese take-out menu in a place where you can’t lose it? When it came to certain old-school tasks, the apps were coming up short. A little reverse innovation was needed. Well, good news, everyone… Now there’s an app for that, too.

Introducing the App Magnets by the Jailbreak Collective! In order to bring the magic of the iPhone into the third dimension, we asked an artist to reach into the iPhone home screen and literally pluck out the apps. Then we added a little magnetism. And best of all, we mass produced them so now you too can own your very own set of 3-D App Magnets!

My only complaint is that they don’t seem to ship outside of the US. Please consult your calendar app, Jailbreak – you appear to be stuck in 2003.

    Gutted that they don’t ship to us. Time to move to Puerto Rico!

    Thanks for the offer, Ken!

    I can always ask my in-laws to help me with stuff like this, I’m just frustrated that so many online stores ignore countries like mine. If I’m prepared to pay for a little extra postage, what’s stopping them from putting it in the mail?

    Australia should ban all exports of Tim Tams until this madness ends. That’ll get ‘em moving.
