Late last week we say the iPod Ad Halloween costume, and now an equally wacky bunch of Apple fanatics have put together a fantastic iPhone costume.

And none of us want to let a $400 device smash to the floor. Here’s a cool mod to help the problem. Go to your local skate shop (there’s probably one within 20 ...
