Apple introduces iPhone Pocket.

OK, I get that this type of phone carrier is quite popular in parts of the world, much like the crossbody strap.

But the price. Oof.

- $149.95 for the short strap
- $229.95 for the shoulder strap

Anyone buying this?

@davemark “Hello, I’m carrying an iPhone in this very brightly coloured knitted pocket. Please don’t immediately notice this and steal said brightly coloured knitted pocket and the extremely expensive iPhone nestled within.”
@craiggrannell "And please don't think that a very sharp knife could cut through this strap like butter!"
@davemark This feels like one of those "let's see how many suckers there are out there" kinda products to me.

@davemark LOL fuck no.

Although they would go well with my ipod socks.

@davemark This looks like it should be included with the iPhone Air for as many as I expect will be sold
@davemark iPhone Socks. Go to the Apple Store, feel the material, and walk out.
