"Must Have" accessories?

[Hawk]

What are your "must have" accessories?
Here is my list:
1) Slider case
2) Crystal support anti-glare screen protector
3) The new UB5 headphones from Ultimate Buds (review coming in the next couple of days!)
4) Component A/V cable (great on a trip if you can connect to the TV in your hotel room!
5)Griffin Auto Pilot Car Charger and AUX pass-through Tunes for the ride
6) Dice dock - so I can simply dock my phone when I get in the car and it's charging and plugged into the stereo
7) BT headset (currently still have the Apple one)
8) Quart size Ziplock Freezer bag. Probably the cheapest accessory, but essential for keeping your iphone and headphones dry on a rainy day. I keep a couple in the car, and at work. I need to get a waterproof armband so I can wear it while mowing or running, as well as running from the parking lot to the building in a rainstorm.


That's all I NEED. what do you have to have?

Whats going on Hawk, how have you been man?

Your number 8 above is an excellent idea and I never thought of it. I go mountain biking a lot and its often wet on the path or trails I ride. This is a great solution.

My must have is the Shure Music Phone Adapter so I can still use my Shure headphones and have most of the functionality the stock iPhone earbuds have. The only thing Im missing now is volume control but thats ok.

I guess I have another one. I just got it installed yesterday but so far Im loving it. The Sony XPLOD MEXBT2700 bluetooth car CD player. Able to stream A2DP and handsfree to the head unit. Syncs no problem and sounds amazing. So much better than my FM transmitter.

I'm hanging in there man, thanks for asking! I haven't been mountain bike riding in a couple years. I need new tubes and tires, and probably a full tune-up.
(plus my bike was made in 1994- i think... might be time for a new one)

Zagg and V-Moda both make iphone headphones with a volume control on them.
If it wasn't for the fact that i love the sound of my Bose unit in my pathfinder, I might do the same as you with the head unit.

Yeah, I took a year off or so, had twins, didnt ride! But this year Im getting back into it and I remember why I love it.

Anyway, I lost some power putting that Sony in though. My factory unit was 65 a channel whereas this is 50, but so far it is worth it. Hell, it might give me a reason to throw an amp in there! Mo money mo money mo money!

heres one to add not to many people know about its in the later stages of production but its a game controller it looks xactly like a psp but on the face it is slotted to fit the iphone and you can play your games with this controller flawlessly i forget the site but im sure if you look it up on google or bing youll find it. supposed to be cheap to around 30 bux...

good list hawk! you've got all bases covered i think lol.

given i'm less mobile (aka: i don't drive) my list is much more simple.

m-audio ie-10 headphones (basically repackaged ultimate ears for hundreds less).

NAJA King stand for night stand (no need for alarm clock anymore).

a regular apple dock for the office desk.

basic leather holster for the belt.

protective gelaskin (brand) skin for the back (with picture of old school boom box )

aside from that, lots of beck and arrested development lol

Pioneer BT7000 head unit. Bluetooth hands-free, charger, plays iPod and pandora.

And a decent pair of headphones. Vmoda vibe duos do the trick for me.

I really didn't think about #8
