Etsy is a place where you can purchase all kinds of weird and wonderful products. The latest follows on from the Band-Aid fix for the iPhone 4 we posted about a few days ago.

If you purchased an iPhone 4 bumper from Apple [AAPL], you should be getting an email through soon that informs you that a
Windows Phone 7 is set to challenge the likes of iOS 4 and Android when it launches in a few months time. Microsoft [MSFT] has dropped quite far behind in recent years due to it’s outdated Windows Mobile OS. The new revamped OS is called Windows Phone 7 and has been built from the ground up. A new UI has been created, compatibility with old apps has been cut off and Microsoft is making a clean start with this OS.
Andy Lees, the Senior Vice President of Mobile Communications Business at Microsoft [MSFT] sent out an email to employees letting them know that they will be getting a free Windows Phone 7 and that when they do, they should show it (or evangelise it) to friends, family and colleagues. We first heard this from a tweet yesterday, so it’s good to see that further confirmation has arrived.
Barnes & Noble [BKS] has announced NOOK for Android is now available. The new NOOK reader allows you to read eBooks purchased from the B&N store which now contains over 1 million eBooks.
Chinavasion has launched a new USB Hub that has a solar panel built in. The Solar USB Hub is capable of acting as a regular USB hub and allows for four devices to be connected up to it.
We hear that Lenovo is also going to be making a tablet computer. The new style of tablet will of course follow along with what the iPad, HP Slate and others look like in that it will drop the old style keyboard and run a more appropriate operating system.
The FujiFilm FinePix S2800HD has been announced by FujiFilm. The new digital camera has a 28mm-504mm high precision lens capable of an 18X optical zoom.
HDTV has been around a while in the UK now although at the moment, there’s still very few HD channels to choose from leaving us with just regular standard def to watch on our fancy and large screens.
The HTC HD2 has a lot of potential locked up inside. The processor on the HD2 is a Snapdragon that can run at 1GHz. The new OverClock applications lets you push it even further to what looks to be 1.267MHz making it run faster than it was designed to do. We of course mention that you should only overclock if you are willing to risk things a little.
Last night, a new version of Skype was approved and released in to the iTunes App store.
