HipstaCase Wraps iPhone in Retro-Tastic Coating

The HipstaCase makes your iPhone as retro on the outside as it is on the inside

This is the iPhone case you have been looking for. It is the official Hipstamatic case, and it is called, of course, the HipstaCase.

Hipstamatic is an iPhone app which turns your pristine digital shots into something resembling the results from a kids' toy plastic camera from the 1970s. Low contrast, color casts and light leaks are its main "features", and we love them. Now you can complete the look and make your iPhone as retro on the outside as it is on the inside.

The one-piece snap-on case makes your phone (or iPod Touch — there are two versions) look like a retro camera, but it also has some extras, or "swankeries." First is the wrist lanyard, which is included in the kit. Second is a tripod mount. This is an extra bracket which slides into the bottom of the "lens" and lets you screw it to a tripod bush.

It isn't cheap, at $40, but I think the Gadget Lab crew has finally found the perfect birthday gift for the preposterously handsome Wired.com photographer Jon Snyder. This is a man so addicted to Instagram (the amazing iPhone Lomo-Twitter app) that the app's icon sits alone on his iPhone's homepage. Happy Birthday, Jon! (whenever it is).
