Every guy should be signed up for Gilt Man.  What’s not to love? It’s designer brands for up to 70% off their retail prices.  But there’s a downside, all of the sales begin at 12pm.  For most people that is right in the middle of their day.  It is difficult to ensure that you can be near a computer for the beginning of of the sale before all of the good stuff is gone.  Now for iPhone users there is a solution.  Finally they have made an iPhone app that will alert you when a sale begins, allow you to shop, and make purchases right from your iPhone.  Go to Gilt.com to download your Gilt iPhone app now.

Here’s a product for a our beloved iPhone users. Incase usually makes fairly awesome-looking products, but this one definitely takes the cake. If you’re looking to jazz up your iPhone a bit, you can give it a Mac Pro feel with Incase’s perforated snap case. Unusual for Incase’s iPhone cases, this case simply snaps on the back instead of sliding on like their other cases. Definitely the perfect thing to get if you want to subtlety protect your iPhone without taking anything away from the simplicity of its design. It comes in black and white, so it’s perfect if you want to alternate between the color of your iPhone.

The Olympus E-P2, the follow-up model to their E-P1, is the world’s smallest 12.3-megapixel camera with an interchangeable lens system, giving you extreme portability, with the advantage of a digital SLR. The E-P2 flaunts a vintage styled backing, an accessory port to add on an electronic view finder, a new iEnhance feature to create a more dramatic color effect, and the ability to shoot high-definition video. Olympus has managed to pack all of this and absolutely stunning picture quality in an extremely small package. Forget about that Sony digital camera we were planning on showing you guys and check out this Olympus. Definitely the perfect solution for the man, who can’t decide between a DSLR and a point-and-shoot and wants a classic, iconic-looking camera.

Beats by Dr. Dre (White)

The already popular Beats by Dr. Dre noise canceling, music producer quality headphones are now going to be available in white.  The best feature of these headphones aside from the sound quality is the option to interchange the headphone cable with another headphone cable that is compatible for use with iPhone.  The sound quality is excellent and other than a bit of rattling from the plastic frame the noise canceling feature works well.  They are extremely comfortable, scratch resistant, and foldable, and come with a storage case.  The downside is that to use the noise canceling feature the headphones require AAA batteries which are not included.  Other than that the new White Beats by Dr. Dre headphones are a great alternative for those looking for a non-Bose noise canceling headphone.

We’re Apple fanatics here at Inside Thread, but when it comes to the phone in our pockets, we’re strictly business and strictly BlackBerry. BlackBerry just recently announced the 9700, or more commonly known as the “Bold 2.” The new Bold is not only lighter and smaller than the original BlackBerry Bold, but it also sports the new BlackBerry trackpad, which works similarly to a laptop trackpad, just micro-sized and works with thumb swipes. The Bold 2 also has the new BB 5.0 software installed on it already and is equipped with a faster processor and much better camera for better picture-taking. Should be available in the middle of November for us to get our thumbs on!
