Winter creates a problem for iPod and iPhone users: Mittens, or even thin gloves, block fingers' natural magnetic field, which means touch screens and iPod wheels won't work. The Etip solves the problem. These lightweight fleece gloves' silicone grippers offer excellent grip in all conditions. They feature silicon pads, plus a special pointer finger pad that works with iPods, iPhones and laptops.
Price: $34 Where to get it: Sports Authority
Bonus: Looks cooler than a glove with one finger tip cut off.
Bummer: May make you realize how poorly laptop batteries work at 15 degrees.
