I’m Lovin’ It – iGo Charge Anywhere

So this week, I have a combo of things I’m loving! And I have one of them to giveaway to one lucky reader….so read on….
I’m loving my new purse I got while visiting Branson and the Coach Factory store. I was sold, the minute I saw the color.
Next up……my new iPhone 4! How did I ever live with out an iPhone? lol I knew I would love it, but I didn’t know how MUCH I’d love it. I’m able to stay connected and get work done when I’m away from home.
Some of my favorite apps right now (aside from facebook, skype and Hootsuite ):
- Dragon Dictation – Thanks to Kristen for reminding about this gem! You can speak/voice record text messages, Facebook status updates and tweets and Dragaon Dictation will type it out for you! OH SO COOL! and the best part…it’s FREE!
- Words with Friends – it’s like playing scrabble with your friends. (if you send me a request, I’m kind of slow at playing, so just know a game may last days and weeks with me lol)
- Camera+ – will make your iPhone camera work like a SLR. $1.99 well spent if you’re serious about your pictures.
- Instagram – makes mobile photography social. You can follow your friends, they can follow you and comment on your pictures. You can also instantly send to Facebook and Twitter at the same time.
My only “dislike” with my iPhone (as with many people) – is the auto correct feature when typing. It seems to be more of a hindrance than helpful. I have a bit of advice on this topic………….
READ what’s typed before you hit send………..
because just when you *THINK* you typed and posted to Facebook a list of what you are doing like “SDC on Sunday” (meaning Silver Dollar City)…….
You may have typed…..
(click to read my comment after my status)
YES…………I REALLY did that!
and just so you know…..you can NOT delete on Facebook from your iPhone! Thank goodness my oldest daughter was home to remove it for me……after snapping a picture of the screen first! THANKS honey! lol
***UPDATE – I love my readers!!! I’ve since learned you CAN delete on FB from your phone!! for those who didn’t know, like me, you just swipe your finger across the message you want to delete and a red delete button will appear!!!! ~thanks to everyone who let me know about this!! #lifesaver
And last but not least………….my new favorite thing for both my iPhone AND my purse!
I’m in LOOOVE with my iGo Charge Anywhere!
iGo Charge Anywhere
from iGo.com
As with most cell phones, I think we all worry about running out of battery, and worse yet running out when you have no access to electricity or a car charger. In the summer time especially………we’ll run to the pool, and I realized my phone is almost out of battery, or spend the day at Six Flags or on vacation taking lots of pictures, tweeting and facebooking will run my battery down in no time.
The iGo Charge Anywhere is a portable charger that you can carry with you so you will never have a dead battery again! Charge plugged and unplugged! During use as a wall charger, the internal battery recharges and is ready to provide power to your gadgets when away from outlets. Charge on the go, at the beach, on a boat, in the air – charge anywhere! The Charge Anywhere comes with a 6 foot USB cable and you purchase the tips that fit each of your devices, so you don’t need a new charger even if you get a new phone, just order a new tip.
iGo Charge Anywhere features:
- Small enough to fit in a purse or pocket.
- 2 USB ports to simultaneously charge 2 devices
- Works with many devices including smart phones, bluetooth headsets, MP3 players, digital cameras, GPS devices and more
- 6 foot USB cable
- No need to buy new charger when upgrading devices
- Works worldwide (do not need a voltage converter)
- The iGo Charge Anywhere retails for $39.99 which includes 1 free tip when purchased online.
You can use the code Twitter10 and receive 10% all orders (no expiration)
This wall charger with an integrated battery provides peace of mind to deliver power anytime, anywhere! The iGo Charge Anywhere can provide up to three full charges to most mobile devices while away from an outlet before it needs to be replenished.

This would come in so handy since I forget to charge my phone and my son plays baseball most of the year.
I would love to own this charger so I can check my email when I’m not at home & not worry about draining my battery on my phone!
Hi Again Cheryl
I think you can change the auto correct setting on the phone so it is off and no more embarrassing typos. Someone wrote to me today that they love thrusting when they meant thrifting – pretty funny.
Go to Settings – General – Keyboard – and I am pretty sure you can turn auto correct off.
Hope you have a great 4th.
My best- Diane –
I would LOVE to own an iGo Charge Anywhere so I can stay connected where ever I am !

Thank you so much for the linky party! I hope you have a magical 4th of July weekend!
I hate feeling like I am losing the battery in my phone.. I am always plugging my phone into whatever I can but would like some extra breathing room.
I did not know you could delete a post on your iphone… I am so happy to find that out!!

I need this i-go charger. I can’t keep hubby from playing poker on my iphone, then I realize my phone is practically dead when there is no place to charge it!
I subscribe to TM and enjoy it! And learn new things…like being able to delete a FB post on it!! Thanks for that tidbit!!
That is such a fabulous idea! I think it would be perfect to use on our ridiculously long flights too and from the states. We are stationed in Guam and use iPods to play games, watch movies and draw! The iPods typically die half way through the 15 hour flight!
I would love to give this to my mother-in-law. She is an awesome person and would really appreciate a gift like this.
I am involved in community theater in my town. I am producing two shows and house managing three this coming year. I will need access to my email and phone during the course of a looooong day. I would hate to have my charge run out and miss an important message
This would be perfect for so many of our fun electricity zappers! I’d use it mostly with my iPad & laptop but would also need to get tips for the multiple Nintendo’s that the boys have, hubbys Blackberry…. Love this product!

I would love to own one as my EVO tends to die on me in the late afternoon while I’m out and about!

Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for hosting!
I would love to have an iGo charge! I am always looking for places to charge my phone! I spend all day sometimes at my son’s basketball tour. and I am always looking for an outlet in the gyms!
I get your emails!!!
I shared this on my fb page!
I would love to have on while I’m at the pool with my kids. I spend alot of time listening to music and surfing the web!!!
I subscribe to your RSS reader through gmail!! <3 it!
I shared on my FB page!! PICK ME PICK ME!! LOL!
This would be fabulous! My iphone is my life (sadly), but charging it is a PITA. This nifty device would be a lifesaver!
I would love an I Go because of my constant forgetfulness to charge my phone at night! The battery dies at the worst times!
I would love an iGo because I need help in keeping my phone charged. I never seem to think about charging until I am somewhere I can’t and sometimes I remember too late and then I have to curtail my use which is challenging!

I would love an iGo Charger!! That would have come in real handy this past week, when I ended up in the hospital with my daughter (she has a heart condition) and no iphone charger and believe or not, not 1 nurse had a charger with them! 🙁
Shared giveaway on FB!
Would love to have one for the iTouch at the pool! Thanks!

My battery lasts me about three hours if I’m using it heavily, what a great invention! Thanks for the chance to win!
Holy moly, your iPhone typing hiccups are not unusual! I’ve tried ryping”Woo hoo” and it comes out “Poop”, “Wait a sec” definitely turns into “Wait sex”… It’s crazy! But I love it, even as I write this from my iPad which autocorrects as well! I’ve been following your feed and am a fan!
I would love to have one of these chargers…my battery is always low at the most inopportune times!
We live out in the desert in the boonies where it is a 2 or more hour’s drive to shopping or most activities so shopping is usually a whole day experience. Having the iGo Charge Anywhere with me when I am far away from home or visiting away from home would allow me to charge my phone and keep it ready for important calls no matter how far away from home I am. Thanks for this great giveaway.
