Crabble The iPhone stand for your wallet
No other iPhone stand comes close to cramming as much functionality into such a small package as Seskimo’s new wallet-sized Crabble. Designed for the iPhone and iPhone Touch, the Crabble also supports a variety of other small media players and smartphones (see below), including many cases and skins.
The Crabble works in both landscape format for video, and portrait format to see incoming calls, and it incorporates rubber feet to cope with the sloping surfaces and vibrations of trains and planes. The landscape viewing angle is adjustable back to 45° by moving the crab-like claws in or out. Although slightly larger than Seskimo’s original credit-card sized stands, the Crabble fits, unfolded, in a normal billfold wallet making it easy to store and always easy to find. An essential tool for the iPhone or Touch power user, at $4.99/€3.99/£3.49/¥499, it is one of the cheapest iPhone accessories on the market.
Tired of holding your media player up in front of you? Take a Crabble with you wherever you go. Slip it out of your wallet, and watch a podcast in Starbucks, or sit back on the plane and watch a movie, all hands-free. Back at work, use it to support your phone in portrait format to see incoming call details or in landscape to keep an eye on business news. In the kitchen, use it to display recipes. At your bedside, use it for a digital clock application like Wake!Gently.
Made of durable and recyclable polypropylene, the Crabble is available in pure black, snow white or crab orange from Seskimo’s website and worldwide delivery (3-5 days) is free for quantities of two or more. Other colors are planned. Seskimo welcomes approaches from local distributors and retailers, and from businesses interested in custom printed Crabbles. The Crabble is made in England.
