I was browsing your site this morning and thought you might be interested in a product we just launched.

Etre Touchy gloves are a fun way to keep your hands warm and dry while using mobile phones, portable games systems, music players and other electronic devices. Their missing thumb and index fingertips allow you to touch, tap, stroke, slide and pinch these devices’ displays in any way you desire – a facet of their design that is particularly important when interacting with touch-screen devices like the iPhone and iPod Touch, since their capacitive touch-screen technology means that they only respond to your bare naked fingertips.

For more information, please check out our website:

You can also browse and download a set of high, medium and low resolution images of the product in action here:

Thanks for your time,

Simon Griffin.
