China’s reputation for selling knock-offs products with illegal branding is well known. But the latest infraction from the region involves iPhone branding on the most unlikely product you could ever imagine.

So apparently Nissan is getting into the iPhone case business after inventing a paint for its vehicles back in 2008 that “self-heals” after being scratched (video demo after the jump). Because God forbid your iPhone CASE gets a f***ing scratch in it. That — that might just be the end of the world. *eye barrel-roll* Come on — you starving kids in Africa know what I’m talking about! No? Just think I’m some sort of weird, fat demon? Oh . Dubbed Scratch Shield, the polyrotaxane-based paint has been used on the company’s Murano, 370Z, X-Trail and Infiniti vehicles. When gashed, the chemical structure reacts by changing back to its original shape, thus mending the damage. Compatible with the iPhone 4 and 4S, the Scratch Shield case is constructed from ABS plastic and was developed in conjunction with the University of Tokyo and Advanced Softmaterials. In addition to its self-repairing properties, the gel-like paint offers a grippy surface instead of a slick glossy coating. Nissan plans on manufacturing and shipping the case later this year if the demand is high enough, which it undoubtedly will be. People loooooooove expensive novelty products. Ooh ooh, watch — I’ll scratch my phone case and the scratch will disappear! GOD, JUST GET A CASE FOR YOUR CASE. Hit the jump for a 30-minute time lapse of a car scratch repairing itself.

This is a conceptual iPhone design by Bryan Brunsell with the camera moved to the top so while you’re texting and walking you can see whatever you’re about to walk into. My guess is a sex shop because you’re a pervert! Plus when you’re texting and driving you’ll be able to see the sky! Oh look, the top of a telephone po– *CRASH!* Listen: if you have the common sense to stop walking while texting can you also have the decency TO NOT JUST STOP DEAD IN YOUR TRACKS? Because I will run into you. “You were distracted taking pictures of my ass, weren’t you?” Of course I was — half your asscrack was hanging out, I have a f***ing Tumblr for shit like that . An unrelated thing that really happened: Me : *yawning* Girlfriend : *sticking finger in open mouth* FUTURE PENIS! One more shot after the jump in case you’re really into squiggly lines.

For all the kind and helpful advice that Apple’s Siri personal assistant gives out, don’t ever catch it on a bad day, or it’ll tell you off in ways your mother would not approve.

Finally, a company marries a computer monitor with an iPhone dock that’s actually useful . AOC ’s e2343Fi display isn’t like any regular monitor; it features a 30-pin dock that outputs audio and video directly the docked iPad to the 23-inch screen. Why didn’t Apple think of this?

Now I know what you’re wondering, “WTF SORT OF SORCERY SHITTERY IS THIS?” And I’m right there with you. As a matter of fact, we’re holding hands . No, no we’re not. But I am trying to inconspicuously touch your butt with my leg. “You’re that guy from the bus!” FUFUFUFUUUUUUUU!! *pulling wire to get off at next stop* BEHRINGER, award-winning innovator of affordable professional audio and music equipment, is excited to announce the launch of the Eurosound consumer electronics brand — concert quality sound at an amazing value. To celebrate the launch, BEHRINGER will unveil the iNuke Boom, the loudest iPod and iPhone dock you’ve ever heard at CES 2012. The $29,999.99 monster speaker system measures a whopping 8 feet wide by 4 feet tall, weighs over 700 pounds and pumps out over 10,000 Watts of power. First of all, nobody wants or needs an 8′ x 4′, 700-lb boombox. You’ll never be able to carry that on one shoulder. Secondly, why the f*** did you name the new brand Eurosound? Is there something special about the sound in Europe? Because one time I backpacked across the entire country and it sounded pretty normal to me. “Europe isn’t a country.” And I don’t own a backpack! Press Release via Get Giant Sound With Giant iNuke Boom [incrediblethings] Thanks to Princess Yumyum, who will help me build you a custom giant iPhone dock that fits your house perfectly AND FOR THE HALF THE PRICE. Jk jk, but we will steal everything that isn’t bolted down and make out in your shower (if it’s a walk-in).

We’ve seen some pretty silly iPhone docks over the years, but this one take outright silliness to a whole new level. The Behringer iNuke might look like any other dock on paper, until you realize that the little speck of color sitting on top is actually a standard sized iPhone.

Massive 10,000 watt iNuke dock should get the house rocking

This is the music video for Hey Geronimo’s ‘Why Don’t We Do Something?’ (I dunno, maybe because we’re really f***ing high and the couch is comfortable!), featuring a bunch of iPhone games recreated in real life . It’s worth checking out. The games: Flight Control, Fruit Ninja, Plants Vs. Zombies, Angry Birds and Cut the Rope. Don’t worry though, the song’s okay, but it’s not the kind that’s gonna get stuck in your head for the rest of the day like Chocolate Rain or the TROLOLOLOL song. HAHA — have fun with those two, jerks! Hit the jump for the music bideo (bideo is the new video but I don’t know why it’s not catching on).

Apple’s not going to happy about this one. It’s been confirmed that a bunch of Chinese hackers have successfully ported Siri to jailbroken iPhone 4 devices — full voice-activated personal assistant powers in tow — pinging Apple’s servers with illegal binaries.

The iPhone 4S’s Siri is a very intriguing piece of tech. Everybody wants in on it . But sadly , nobody but the iPhone 4S will have Siri’s brains — until now. A group of mobile developers claim they’ve cracked the Siri protocol and figured out how to “use its recognition engine on any device.”
