I’ve decided that there’s no piece of everyday equipment that doesn’t look better properly equipped in my favorite team’s colors. When I was in school I decorated my three-ring-binder with a collage of pictures and emblems from my favorite sports teams, including cards and stickers. It always looked a little rough, but everybody knew where my loyalties were. Nowadays there’s so many different electronics used in everyday life, I figured why not dress them up in my favorite team’s colors?
Whether it’s my laptop, digital camera, cell phone, or iPod, I’ve found a place that carries cases for a number of different professional and college squads. I tried out www.foneGEAR.com and I’ve been impressed with the deals, the service, and especially the product. I went looking for fan gear and found they had the bluetooth device I was looking for as well. I recently ordered myself a North Carolina Tar Heel case for my laptop, a Michigan camera case for my uncle, and a Mini Blu Bluetooth headset for in-car cell phone use. Here’s a roundup of the three things I purchased from www.foneGEAR.com.
NCAA North Carolina Laptop Sleeve
The Tar Heels have been my favorite team since I started liking sports. When I was growing up, every kid on the playground loved the Detroit Pistons “Bad Boys” and thus, being the competitive guy that I am, I not only selected the upstart Chicago Bulls as my favorite team, but also decided on Michael Jordan’s past college team as my collegiate favorite. Since then, I’ve been sporting Tar Heels gear whenever I get the chance.
Traveling often, as I do, and having to work on the road, my laptop has become a part of me as much as jeans and a t-shirt. It wasn’t until just recently that I finally picked up a proper case. I met this guy at the airport, sporting a Duke Blue Devils computer case, and knew then and there that I had to get a Tar Heel carry case to counteract that guy.
FoneGEAR had a bunch of different cases, so I picked out my Tar Heel colors and went from there. The case holds my computer nicely, and has a front zipper section for the different papers, pens, and notes I need. The zippers have NC emblems on them, as does the front of the case. The entire thing is North Carolina baby blue, and it’s made of a nice neoprene material that gives padding as well as having a nice feel. The zippers and emblems are definitely quality, as there is nothing cheap about the case.
I can’t wait to bring my laptop along the next time I watch NC/Duke with one of the biggest Blue Devil fans of all time. Keeping your friends jealous is key! I picked up the case for 24.99, and there’s always great discounts on site.
NCAA Michigan Camera Case
Sometimes picking up team gear isn’t always for yourself. Sometimes you have to pick stuff up for your friends, and is there ever a better time to give your buddy his favorite team’s gear than when they are struggling? Not a chance. I took this opportunity to pick up a Michigan Wolverine camera case for my Uncle P. He’s always loved Michigan, and rubbed those Fab 5 days in my face like he was the guy “donating” them money. He almost got a cell phone cases
until I remembered that he didn’t have a cell phone.
As a Michigan alumni Uncle P has loved their Hoops and Football programs more than any local professional team. And he’s had some great years, I definitely would have never picked him up any Michigan gear during the good years. But now. Ha. There’s never a better time to remind him that the Wolverines are his favorite team. Yes. It’s been a long time since the Fab 5 represented his degree in the Final Four, and the times of Michigan as a football powerhouse in the Big 10 are also a distant memory, as losing seasons and embarrassing outcomes make me smile weekly.
But, I know Uncle P is still a proud fan, and since he brings his new digital camera to every single family get-together, forcing us to take 100 pictures every single time we meet up, the Michigan case was a great option. Cheap, easy, well made, good looking, and he has to answer to his Wolverine’s fall from grace anytime anybody asks about his case – yeah, that’s priceless.
Unlike a lot of cases out there, this one comes with a long enough neck-line to hang around your neck, easily fitting over your head. It also has a elastic band inside to hold batteries or the adapter kit. A back velcro pouch and belt loop, as well as a metal clip give you lots of options to keep the case latched on. My uncle loves it, even when I start talking about Michigan’s last loss – and that’s when I love it most!
Mini Blu Bluetooth Headset
After getting a couple cases, I also noticed foneGEAR had a couple bluetooth options. After a little research I saw that the Min Blu Bluetooth headset rated out well, was small enough not to bother me (just 9 grams), and ranges basically anywhere my desk chair can roll in my at-home office. It’s been great for answering calls and talking for long periods of time. I don’t have to hold my phone up to my ear, and after making fun of these things forever, I’m really beginning to appreciate them. This little thing is great and I am glad that I decided against getting myself that cell phone cases!
All the products I ordered came exactly when foneGEAR said they would. The orders were quick and correct, and everything went as easy as possible. The online ordering process was quick and easy, and I’d definitely recommend the site to anyone looking for cases for their phones, cameras, and computers.
