Hi all the deal extreme site is pretty cool, I've attached an image of an 8x optical zoom for the iPad. $21.20.
Has anyone ever used one of these or what would be helpful is if anyone can post some test photos with one? I like to take photos when out and about and the camera lets the iPad down a little so something to be able to see a little further and in focus would be great for me.

I had the opportunity to take a picture of two pigeons as they were "kissing" and it would have been great if the picture quality was better when zoomed in.

Wireless Video Transmission Kit for iPod / iPad / iPhone (does not advertise as compatible with ipad3 though)
Around $80 looks cool, could solve many issues around moving media between pc and iPad.

I realise the following are for the iPhone 4 and the iPod touch but both are worthy gadgets worth a mention.
The first is a Bluetooth gaming controller iPhone case which looks great and I bet works great with certain games.
The second is a device that allows you to turn your iPod touch into a phone, I loved my iPod touch back in the day and have never had another I device set up, jailbroken and tweaked as well as I had that iPod set up and I know if this was out I probably would have got one of these, my upgrade to an iPhone 3GS at the time just didn't cut it for some reason, I guess I did not want to go over all the tweaks again or pay for any of the cydia tweaks I already had for free.
I'm happy with my giant iPod for now anyway :)

I"m trying to decide between the ZaggFolio and the Kensington one blue tooth keyboard and case.
Any suggestions?

OMG! I so want this!

How about this projector?

Product blurb: Getting people to crowd over your iPhone to show them the cool video you took of the chance encounter with a ten-car pileup on the highway or a celebrity sighting can get really difficult. The screen is small, and upside-down video doesn't really convey the best atmosphere - everybody has to pile toward one side of the iPhone.

What if there's a way to project your videos onto the wall? What if there's a low-cost way to do that? A simple dongle that you plug into the dock connector of your phone, point to a nearby white wall, and turn the lights down for a community screening? This device is that.

You can even plug it into another device with an RCA cable, and it comes with a tripod for your iPhone so that you don't have to keep holding it up.

$248 though is a bit hefty.

I think the cases are all personal choice and I think you would be happy with whatever you use, personally I'm not too bothered about the case and have a few laying around but I'm happy using it as it is. Sorry if that's not much help. Post some pics I can give my opinion.

Next up:
Bluetooth Keyboard with Skype Telephone for iPad / iPad 2 / iPhone 3G/4/4S - Black + Silver
looks cool I reckon

It would be cool, to be honest though browsing this deal extreme site I've noticed quite a few projectors but most are around £100++ costly but at least now when people are showing off what they can do with their phone how cool would it be to pull out a projector and watch a video, that would shut them up haha :)

Hi I've just found these coloured digitizer replacement screens on an wholesale website minimum order 1-5 though but they must be out there somewhere, now it looks like you can really customise your iPad 2. Has anyone had any experience customising there own iPad 2?

I bought one of these from Ebay. It works okay, the quality is not Apple, but neither is the price.
They come in with many different version. Some has HDMI while others only have a RCA to TV.
They are okay, if you only going to use it once in a while. I would not recommend it for output to TV for games.
