    If you check out tomorrow’s Vergecast, you’ll get to hear The Verge’s Jess Weatherbed convince me that gadget straps are a clever phone accessory — and have a lot to say about the future, too. Apple’s version is expensive, but clever, and now comes in “Soft Pink” and “Bright Guava.” I think I’m still buying black, though.
