Deep in the middle of the summer is a mighty fine time to grab some friends and hit the open road. You may recall that last January we did our own road trip from Nashville to Las Vegas for the Consumer Electronic Show. We affectionately named our journey CES Bound.
Since it’s high season for road trippers, I thought I would ask the CES Bound crew for their road trip tips:

We’re giving away our new WindowSeat HandsFree to 10 lucky winners!
Leave us a comment with your personal road trip tip. We’ll randomly select 10 winners next Thursday (August, 5th after 12 pm Central). Good luck!
There’s a great post on Mashable today by Christina Warren about the last five years of mobile devices. It’s a fantastic look at: The Rise of the Touchscreen; The Socialization of Mobile; Broadband in Your Pocket; There’s an App For That; and The Future.
Warren concludes:
In five years, we’ve transitioned from keypad to touchscreen, from 2G to ubiquitous broadband, from social as an afterthought to social as an intrinsic part of the mobile web and to a world full of app stores. It’s impossible to predict the next five years, but imagine that mobile devices will continue to get faster, consume less power and slowly but surely supplant workstations and notebooks.
What do you think?
How do you picture our phones in the next five years?
What was your first mobile phone?

Thanks to everyone who submitted their favorite cell phone photos. What an incredible array of creativity from y’all.
To keep it fair, we randomly selected the winners. Each photo was amazing on it’s own, choosing “the best” photos would have been impossible.
Congratulations to jamieisnifty, earthXplorer and reva skie!

As many of you will recall, we partnered with Sandy Chilewich back in November. Chilewich is recognized as a textile innovator, known for her striking and elegant vinyl-based designs. Together we created popular iPhone 3G/3GS cases.
One of my favorite reviews of our Chilewich cases is from Gearlog:
There are a lot of eye-catching iPhone and iPod cases out there, but for the most part they look like they were designed for a young, hip audience. Your options can be limited if you’re looking for something more on the elegant and graceful side. Two new cases from Griffin, however, are going to change that.
iPod touch users will be thrilled that we’re releasing two new colors, turquoise and aluminum. These colors, in addition to classic Gravel, are now available for iPod touch. In any color, Elan Form Chilewich remains the essential complement to a fashionable tech lifestyle.
Jaime at Design Milk said it best, “What does Griffin + Chilewich equal? Awesome.”
Go check out the new cases and get one while they remain in stock!
