CLIP HANGER
You’ll ABSOLUTELY Love It For Your Cell Phone…

Retail Price: $12.99
DEAL PRICE: $9.99
Get Two for $15.98

This is the best way to hang on to any cell phone, pda or ipod.
ClipHanger, takes away the need for a case as it conveniently
clips on to your belt loop and allows one handed access to your
phone. Its thin profile minimizes bulk and won’t poke you or
cause discomfort, even while sitting. It is made from durable
plastic that won’t break, and because it sticks up beyond the
top of your phone, it helps to protect the antenna too.

Other cell phone clips are bulky and stick out too far to be
comfortable. The ClipHanger is very slim and easily hooks on
your belt loop, pocket or waistband. It moves with your body so
it will not snap off and break. Use the included dashboard mount
to hang your phone in the car.
