Top 15 Wacky And Useful Add-On Gadgets For The iPad (AAPL) And Iphone

Apple’s Iphone App Store has been a runaway success — probably more than Apple ever imagined it would be.

But getting other companies to make hardware add-ons for the iPhone hasn’t gone as well.

While Apple Acer as07b71 battery made tools available for companies a couple years ago to make gadgets that hook into the iPhone, there just haven’t been that many.

And those that do exist haven’t really taken off yet. Have you ever seen someone using their iPhone as a TV remote or as a blood pressure monitor?

There is one promising lead, though: Using the iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad as a payment terminal, via add-ons like the Square credit card reader. Apple itself is even using the iPod touch as a point-of-sale device in its retail stores. This is a situation where the Apple hardware is actually cheaper than making custom electronics, so it might work.

Other hardware projects, such as making game pad accessories, seem more far-fetched. But maybe someone will come up with something awesome and it will take off.

iHealth blood pressure monitor

For $100, you get the cuff and an iPad/iPhone dock. The app is free.

the powerhouse that brought us BlackBerry smartphones — earned a loyal following in the business world before it started to woo consumers. Yet, recently, most of the attention has been showered on sexier Android devices and the iPhone.

Square

Square and other mobile payments products allow you to perform credit card transactions on your iPhone or iPad.

Square uses the headphone jack, while rival services from other companies use the iPhone dock connector.

the iPhone 5 prototypes have been spotted at Foxconn and are now in mass production for a launch this summer. Will The New Iphone 5 use the dual-core A5 processor found in the iPad? It’s likely. Will it be thinner and lighter than the Iphone 4? It’s possible, but probably not dramatically.

Cade gaming device

The iCade gaming cabinet for your iPad Dell latitude e6400 battery apparently isn’t a joke after all.

Another interesting thing is what Apple is doing with the antenna design. The iPhone 4 was pretty flawed, and it was painfully obvious to anyone who’d ever tried to sustain a phone call or maintain decent data speeds while gripping or touching the antenna. Apple even gave out free bumpers and cases to those affected by the issue. With a rumored metal back case on the iPhone 5, will Apple be forced to use the frame as the antenna all over again?

We’ll have to see how this hooks into games, though. Would a device like this ever become popular enough that game developers support it by default?
