Cool musical accessories for iPad and iPhone

The iPhone and especially the iPad, received somewhat of a cult status as a musician's best friend after their release. A lot of people who were into Macs and iPods before, were into music as well, so naturally a number of apps appeared on the iPhone for everything - from tuning your guitar, to playing the piano. When the iPad increased the screen real estate available, we even had popular bands creating albums solely on Apple's tablets.

Needless to say, the accessory industry amplified (no pun intended) this trend, outing an abundance of accompanying devices for music lovers out there, that worked in sync with their iPhones and iPads. We are not even talking about speaker docks that double as a nightstand here.

There are turntables, stomp pedals and vinyl records-iPhone transfer systems. We round up a few of the interesting ones that might make you eager to unleash your inner DJ, while you wait for the wonders of the next iPad.

Today only: iPads and iPods 10% cheaper on NewEgg

If you’ve missed all those Holiday sales don’t worry - NewEgg has got you covered with a rare 10% off deal on all iPads and iPods. There’s no catch, but you’d need to hurry up - the deal will only last one day, and that’s today. You’d need to enter the following code: EMCNHNA28 The code is valid until 11:59pm PST today, on February 9th, but if you order sooner you’d do better as there’s a fund limitation. Once it runs out, the promotion could end even earlier.

Now, that’s not everything NewEgg sells - it’s deal covers cameras, monitors, other Verizon smartphones and plenty of gadgets, but our guess is that the Apple products will be in biggest demand. Is 10% enough to lure you into purchase? Also, don’t forget that a little patience might go a long way - Apple is expected to unveil the next-generation iPad with improved battery and specs in a mere couple of weeks, so you might want to spare the piggy bank now.
