{     Tinbot     }    

I have a lot of music on my iPod. Really, a lot. Presently I have over eleven thousand tracks on my iTunes. I actually believe if I’m kept apart from my iPod for too long the results could be disastrous, perhaps fatal, as so many of my fellow iPod addicts know. Now comes a solution to one of our greatest quandaries: how to safely store our iPods. The Tinbot line takes the idea of storage and makes it art.

The origins of the TINBOT were developed and designed by Kollective.de, a group of “designers, illustrators, photographers and innovators dedicated to producing exciting new products.” A metal case that has a soft inside to cushion and safely conceal your iPod, the Tinbot has 8 really amazing designs available (a line that is still growing) from a collection of truly talented artists. Plans already seem in the works for the ability to create a “custom” Tinbot, cornering the market on cool personalization. For a long trip or just to make sure your iPod doesn’t get roughed up over the bumpy trails, be sure to pick up a Tinbot and keep your baby safe.
