Cool And Unusual Surface Accessories

I think I am starting to earn a reputation for being a gadget-geek and deal finder. HA! I’m good with that.

In this post I’d like to tell you about some pretty cool and unusual Surface accessories. These are my picks for 2015, thus far. Check them out and tell me what you think. I’d also love to hear about any cool and unusual accessories that you found and like for your Surface tablet.

OK, let’s get to it…

My Picks For Cool And Unusual Surface Accessories:

Backpack of Holding

This one comes to us from Thinkgeek and is the best backpack I’ve found for holding a large amount of shtuff. If you’re like me and need a “Hermione-sized” backpack, this one is for you.

What’s cool: 1-2” bigger in all directions than the typical backpack. Top flap that unfolds to give you another half a foot of useable space. Padded tablet sleeve with hook and loop closure and lots of pockets.

You say cheezy, I say awesome! Who doesn’t want to see water dance to the beat of their music? Admit it – you do. Oh you don’t? Well, than maybe you’re not a true geek…
