iPhone “Gaming Grip” and possible THUMBS OF A WOMAN
They might be the thumbs of a woman, but it’s hard to tell these days. Men don’t grow big sausage fingers any more, thanks to most of us not having to pull levers or work with molten metal in a northern factory all day.
In fact, in most modern offices, it’s the women who have the worst hands due to having to do all the photocopying (paper cuts) and washing up the mugs (puffiness) while the men sit there talking about what crisps they’re eating on Twitter with important clients.
VERDICT: Probably a man’s thumbs.
Get a grip on Gaming!
Exspect launches the first-of-its-kind Gaming Grip for iPhone and iPod Touch
We all know playing games on the move is the future of gaming and now, thanks to the launch of the Gaming Grip from Exspect, mobile gaming has just got a lot more realistic.
The first product of its kind, the Gaming Grip is available for the iPod Touch 2G and the iPhone 3G, including the new iPhone 3G S. It is designed to provide an experience similar to that of a dedicated mobile games console, and is equally effective for games played in landscape or portrait.
“Mobile gaming is really taking off among UK consumers. We want to give these mobile gamers the same experience of a console gamer, with great accessories to match the great games they’re playing,” said Mike Sanderson, Head of Development, Exspect. “Using our expertise and knowledge in both the hardware protection and gaming market we have developed a product that really brings the mobile gaming experience to life.”
With its sleek design* the Gaming Grip is contoured to fit in the palm of your hand whilst still maintaining full access to your touch screen and all its functions. Made from high-grade silicone the enhanced grip of your iPhone/ iPod Touch allows you to play any type of genre of game, safe in the knowledge that the device won’t fly out of your hands whilst fitting comfortably in your pocket.
When not being used to play games it can act as a protective case, with a screen protector included as standard.
The Gaming Grip from Exspect will be available via Amazon at just £14.99.

“Exspect”? What kind of shitty name for a company is that? Why the hell would they decide to spell it that way? Honestly, some people. Tch.
Regarding the press release, what did the * refer to in smaller print elsewhere? Was it something like ‘*sleek when compared to a hippo with the mumps rather than compared to iphone without slipcase’?
Also, £14.99 for a rubber slipcase? I know iPhone owners are regarded as being idiots easily parted with their money but they’re having a laugh aren’t they? I fully expect to see these in poundland within the next year or so.

If they are a womans thumbs, wouldn’t.
But they’re evidently 100% mans thumbs, those.

Am I the only one to spot that it is one hand’s worth of thumb photoshopped over to the opposite hand?
No human being has such symmetrical thnubs.
