This Starbucks Cell Phone Plug continues to merge the worlds of cafes and mobile devices. Every Starbucks around is usually filled with laptop-bearing professionals or students looking for a quiet place to study or work. Now there is an actual accessory for iPhones in the shape of a Starbucks coffee mug.
The mug is hand painted and fits all models of iPhones, iPads, Samsung, HTC, Blackberry, Nokia phones. The actual function of this Starbucks Cell Phone Plug is to keep dust and other materials from finding their way into your phone's audio jack. However, since this usually isn't a major problem with phones, it is safe to assume this cell phone plug is more about the brand appeal than the functionality.
