I suppose that a company like Dockem just has to make docks, and I had a chance to try out the Koala Mount. The Koala Mount is a very simple tool that is essentially a frame for a tablet like the iPad so you can put it on your wall. The Koala Mount is Chrome-plated goodness that is quite easy to install.

The CargoCase and CompactCase from Krome
Even though the iPhone 4/4S may seem passe with the advent of the iPhone 5, Krome has some pretty awesome cases with the CargoCase and the Compact Case.
