Etre Touchy Gloves
A Christmas Gift For Gadget Addicts?

It seems like any bunch of idiots can churn out a mobile phone accessory these days and make a few bucks and the Etre Touchy gloves are nice example and I bet some of you'd agree with me :]

Well, winter is upon us and their missing thumb and index fingertips allows you to keep your hands warm while more easily touching, tapping, and pinching your devices' controls and/or touch screens.

This is especially necessary with capacitive screens, as seen on the iPhone and iPod Touch, require a naked finger to use but fortunately these gloves are not going to be the must have equipment this winter for the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic owners!

Nokia Tube is equipped with resistive touchscreens and these screens are pressure-sensitive and so can be used with wet hands, long nails or while wearing gloves. They also support the use of a stylus, such as the cute and handy 'plectrum' that comes with the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic.

From other hand, Etre Touchy gloves are compatible with all manner of electronic gadgets. The teensy-weensy keypads found on the majority of mobile phones are a real pain in the ass to operate with a pair of big fat mittens on your hands. But with Etre Touchy gloves, your index fingers and thumbs are free to dance across the digits with precision and ease.

So, for those don't like the winter and who want the best of both worlds, there is always the Etre Touchy gloves which offer a practical way to keep your hands warm without sacrificing on functionality where your touch screen device is concerned.

At the present time, Etre Touchy gloves are available in two sizes - medium and large - and one colour - charcoal with turquoise trim. However, Etre hopes to add new colours, sizes and customisation options in the near future.

The gloves cost GBP14.99 GBP including P&P and can be ordered directly from http://www.etretouchy.com.
