I'm looking to spoil myself a little bit haha. I have the new iPad, iPhone 4S as well as an old white macbook. I will eventually replace the macbook for a new one, but I've been playing the waiting game (that's a whole nother discussion topic for another day). As far as accessories go, I don't have much of anything for my phone or iPad and I was hoping you guys could give me some ideas. I plan on posting the same discussion elsewhere, like 9to5, but thought I would get as many opinions as possible. Anyways, I have an otterbox on my iPhone which I like, but its the second one I've had, as the 1st one broke. Nothing for the iPad so far. No covers or anything.

I Want:

A dock compatible with my iPhone AND iPad, preferably with airplay, but I don't care that much. I'm currently looking at the JBL OnBeat Xtreme, I have heard really good things and previously owned a JBL dock that I liked and used quite a bit.

Headphones that aren't Dre Beats. I'm not knocking them, they're decent and I bought a pair for both of my sisters so I know how they can perform, I'm just not that into them. I was looking at a new pair of AKG headphones that look great and heard that there might be some offerings from Harman Kardon soon, so I might hold out for something if it's near release.

I need:

Pretty sure I should get some sort of protection for my iPad. I usually keep it in a slip cover for my macbook and keep it in my backpack when its not in use, or if I'm at work. That works fine for now, but I think i want some sort of cover that I can prop it up with to watch movies on planes, trains or long car rides. I was looking at the Incase Origami sleeve, thought it looked pretty cool.

So, I know I wrote kind of a lot but I was just looking for some opinions of products you own or have heard good things about. Thanks for any input!
