REAL LIFE NEWS: YET ANOTHER USE FOR AN IPHONE
by Hazed
Three cheers for an enterprising dad who has come up with a novel use for an iPhone. Or, to be more precise, an iPhone case.
Worried about his daughter’s safety, he built a case for her phone that has a built-in pepper spray.
Scott McPherson’s daughter was headed for college, and he wanted to make sure she was safe, so hit on the idea of using a device she was sure to be carrying at all times. “Most co-eds don’t go anywhere without their smartphone,” he said, “so the optimal solution was to combine her phone and a safety device.”
The case comes in black, white, turqoise, and pink, and can deliver an eye-biting spray at a distance of six to eight feet.
Sounds like a great idea. You can buy one for $39.95 from Amazon or from the manufacturer’s website - there’s a link in the source article below.
