iPhone has just been announced but the hunt for accessories of the highly desirable iPod/phone/internet device hybrid has already begun!

SourceCrowd.com is always striving to bring you the latest and greatest, so here are but a few add-on you should consider worthwhile if you already (lucky one!) own an iPhone!

First of all, an accessory which should really be considered an essential: what’s better for such a cool and sleek device than a Wireless Bluetooth Headset for the Apple iPhone?

Of course, no data is still available about how much power-hungry the iPhone is in day to day use, but you’ll never run out of battery with stuff like the Powered Windshield Car / Auto Mount PDA Phone Holder for the Apple iPhone - Gomadic Brand, doubling as a charger and holder for your car (and proudly showing it!).

When not traveling in your car, whether running or commuting on the underground, such a glossy device deserves some protection and care: get yourself (and your iPhone) a iPhone Silicone Case w/ Screen Protector & Belt Clip - 5 Color Options! Another sleek and colorful option could be the iPhone silicone case i phone cover

The most anticipated launch of the year is finally upon us: since it was first announced in back in January of 2007, the iPhone has been one of the most talked about topics on the internet. Apple has once again showed how it’s done in the marketing and hype department: now it’s up to consumers and early buyers to try first hand if the iPhone will live up to the huge expectations created around it

So far the first press and web reviews have been positive, with small nags overpowered by the great advanced feature of the iPod/Phone hybrid that have wowed the public and professionals alike. The only thing stopping this device from being a market winner overnight seems to be the high price, which of course is justified by the advanced and new features like the multi touch technology display.

We won’t bore you with tech specs, you can find all the info you want and more on Apple’s website. If you are lucky enough to be near an AT&T or Apple store tonight at 6pm, you might be in for a spectacle as people queue up to get their hands on a brand new iPhone. If you are even more lucky, you may even be able to go out and buy one!

We all love the quality and controls of DSLRs, full-featured cameras. But, we are also well aware of the downsides when it comes to carrying around all that weight: camera body, lenses, accessories. Yet, there’s no such thing as a super-featured compact camera but… here’s where SourceCrowd.com comes in!Meet the Samsung S1050 and Canon PowerShot A710 IS , two compact cameras with truly impressive features. They both sport a 35-190 mm zoom (in 35 mm equivalent format) and have the three magic letters sought after by all serios photoamateurs: M, S and A.
This means that these tiny toys will allow for full manual exposure control, be it “M”anual, “A”perture priority or “S”peed priority -based.

Both cameras will give you superior shake reduction through state-of-the-art controls.
A few differences: the Samsung sports a 10 Megapixel CCD, the Canon has a 7.1 MP sensor. While the Samsung has (only) a huge 3″ LCD display, the Canon gives you an option that is getting harder and harder to find these days in the compact sector of the market: an eye-level viewfinder. In fact, lately only a few compact cameras still have an optical or even an electronic viewfinder, which is left off in favour of wider displays.
Canon gets you up to 800 ISO whereas Samsung gets you even further to 1600 ISO.

An additional kit is available from Opteka, the Canon PowerShot A710 A700 Professional HD² Digital Accessory Kit, offering telephoto and wide-angle additional conversion lenses, filter sets and portable tripod.

If you are only interested in the wide end of the spectrum, then have a look at the Opteka .42x Wide Angle Panoramic Macro Fisheye Lens .

In both cases, early users around the world are giving raving reviews to both cameras.

Prices?

US$ 279.99 for the Canon PowerShot A710 IS and US$ 230 for the Samsung S1050.

Apple has announced the release date of its upcoming iPhone mobile device in the US in a series of ads which began airing on Sunday. The three ads have also been posted on Apple’s own website. The iPhone was first unveiled in January by company CEO Steve Jobs, and has since been one of the most talked about, and sought after, gadgets of the year. Drawing both critiques and accolades even before it has been released to the public, the only thing that everybody seems to be agreeing on is that they would like one!
