In the Joby world, there’s nothing that can’t be improved with the addition of flexible, gripping legs. August saw the release of the Gorillatorch, a light you can put in any position, and now we’ve got the Gorillamobile for 3G and 3GS iPhones.

The Gorillamobile for 3G/3GS includes a soft-touch case that you leave on your iPhone and bendy tripod legs that you can quickly attach or release. Use them as a tripod for a video shoot, or wrap them around the handlebars of an exercise bike at your gym for easy video-viewing.

This version works with more than just the iPhone, however, since it comes with two adhesive clips and a universal camera adapter, so you can add legs to all your mobile devices. Buy it from the Joby site for $39.95.

The LEGO Digital Camera, above, sells for $49.99 list. It has 3 megapixels and a 1.5-inch LCD on the back; 128MB of built-in memory holds around 80  photos.
