Cell Phone Garter

Now, here is an imaginative hybrid tech/fashion product. A cell phone garter available in black velvet, with a hook and loop closure to fit many sizes. Fits most cell phones and some MP3 players. The price is $18.00, available here.

I am thinking about buying one to use when I walk (I take long walks as my favorite exercise). It would not be difficult to make one myself, however, and would probably cost less than $18.00. I might try making my own.

Netflix for Handbags

Beg Borrow or Steal is a new service, based on the Netflix online rental business model, but for purses, not films. Per Hacking Netflix, you can rent designer purses for a monthly membership fee ranging from $19.95 to $174.95. Insurance and shipping are extra.

I have seen the purses for rent on the site. Some are attractive and interesting, but not for a monthly rental fee, particularly not one as high as $174.95. It should be interesting to watch this site and see if they prosper.
