Now that winter's coming, many of us are finding out about the downside of our fancy new touchscreen phones. Just answering an iPhone requires your bare finger on the screen, and that's a problem if you're all bundled up to fend off the cold weather. By the time you get a glove off, chances are your voicemail has picked up the call.
If all you want to do is answer the phone, you could get some fancy Bluetooth-enabled ski gloves, but even at $500 a pair, all they let you do is answer a call. The Etre Touchy gloves are a lower-tech solution that simply leaves the tips of your index fingers and thumbs exposed, allowing you to work all of the phone's fancy functions while keeping your palms toasty.
DVICE Discount: The Etre Touchy gloves are available now for about $23. BUT if you go to the company's Web site and enter the code "DVICE," you'll get a 20% discount (until April 1, 2009). Enjoy!

23 bucks for gloves minus 2 fingers?
I've got an idea... an old pair of gloves, and some scissors... how 'bout that?

But that wouldn't be trendy!
Just by implying the fact that it could be useful for any iPod product raises the price by at least 150%.

Is this a tax for style wankers? I guess iphone owners are a good target market.
