Quick update : We've discovered that the manufacturer will let us split the order between colors, so you now have an option between black and white Earbud winders. We're still working on getting the page to look right, but you can figure it out for now, I think. Click the images below to visit the store and preorder one of these bad boys.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're proud to bring you one of the first new items on the Real Life Store's shelves since... well, since Book 1, I guess. This is an ingenious little product that you attach via suction to the back of your iPod or other portable electronic device, and it gives you a nice place to hold your earbuds without them flying all over the place. And to make it even better, we got it customized with our own special touch.

These are in preorder right now, and will be for the next month while we get enough orders together to send off for the batch. The good news is, the first 100 people to preorder one will get it signed by yours truly! I may even doodle. Who knows. :)

In any case, click here to check it out and place your order! And this is only the first of a lot more cool stuff we'll be bringing to you in the near future. Liz is now working full-time on the Real Life Store, so things should really start picking up soon. We've got more ideas than we even know what to do with. This is a good thing.
