    So we’ve hit threshold on three products so far. We’re pumped about where we are…and now it’s time to kick it up a notch!

    Today we are promising to develop an accessory for apple’s latest gadget in just 24 hours by leverage the participation of our existing quirky community (of kick-ass gadget ideators!) as well as sapple enthusiasts worldwide.

    Idea submission will be open for just 4 hours & SUBMISSIONS WILL BE FREE. Everything else stays the same– we just move quicker. As per usual, 30 cents of every dollar generated from the sale of this product will go back to all influencers.
