Ever tried writing a text message or an urgent work e-mail with gloves
on? Chances are what you planned to type and what came out couldn't
look more different...if anything came out at all. Digits are a $14
set of four conductive pins that, like the Dots iPhone gloves, were
designed to make cold weather touchscreen use easy, and hopefully
error free. Unlike Dots and other pre-made touchscreen products,
however, Digits allow you to use your own gloves, provided they're
knit (unfortunately, they're not leather-friendly). Each pin comes in
two parts: one piece sticks through from inside your glove, and the
other, which sports silicone caps, attaches from outside, using the
same concept as this DIY set. Digits should keep your touchscreen free
of scratches and your texts and e-mails free of error, even when it's
freezing out. Hopefully now you won't end up firing when you should be
filing.
