The US$59.99 Technocel PowerPak XT (http://technocel.com/) is a combination USB charger and external battery pack that I highly recommend as a great combination for anyone who travels and needs a little extra power boost now and then.
Because it has a USB port and a AC power plug, you can charge your iPhone (or iPad in “slow-charge “mode) and charge the device’s own battery at the same time.

Wrapsol (http://www.wrapsol.com) is offering two different types of film for the Verizon iPhone 4 including the Ultra film (US$29.95) that offers clear protection for front to back scratch and drop protection. There’s also the Wrapsol Clean version ($14.95), which is a matte screen protector that also eliminates fingerprints, smudges and glare.
I’ve given the latter a try. As promised it does offer some extra screen protection and reduces glare and fingerprints. But the thing I like best about it is that it’s relatively easy to apply.

Toon Boom Animate 2 from Toon Boom Animation (http://www.toonboom.com) is the gold-standard tool for creating Flash animations.
As there’s some confusion surrounding the word “Flash,” you should know that it’s both a file format (used to display animations — and other kinds of multimedia presentations — on the Web and other platforms) and also a program used to create those files. The full name of the Adobe Flash-file-creating program is Adobe Flash CS5. It creates Flash animations but you can create Flash animations with other programs, too.
