IOpener, a Bottle-Opening Case for the iPhone

The iOpener is sure to be a sellout success
The iOpener is a real eye-opener. Sorry. The iPhone case/bottle opener layers gimmick on gimmick, but at least it appears to be well made.
The first gimmick is obvious: it’s a bottle opener. However, the case is made of a polycarbonate/ABS mix which won’t break when the retractable 14 gauge, 304 food grade stainless-steel opener is levering the lid off a bottle of delicious beer.
The next gimmick is that it comes with a companion app. This talks to the iPhone within and uses an accelerometer to detect when you have opened a bottle. It then launches an app called BevConX which asks you what you just opened and then lets you share it on Facebook or Twitter. It will also remember where and when you had that beer. This is handy for someone like me who tends to forget everything after the sixth bottle.
Should you not already have an iPhone case and a bottle opener, you can pick up an iOpener for $30.
