1. iPhone 3GS (US$199 or up)
Have you or your friend upgraded to the iPhone 3GS? Probably, it’s time to consider an upgrade. The iPhone 3GS offers more power and speed over the previous model. With the new 3-megapixel camera, on top of taking great photo, it also lets you shoot high-quality VGA video and comes with a digital compass.

Beats by Dr. Dre Headphones from Monster2. Beats by Dr. Dre Studio High-Definition Headphones from Monster (US$289)
Developed in collaboration between legendary music producer and artist Dr. Dre, engineers from Monster Cable, and renowned industrial designer Robert Brunner, the Beats by Dr. Dre headphones bring a professional producer’s experience to music fans everywhere. The headphone delivers super-deep bass, smooth undistorted highs, and crystal clear vocals. Of course, it’s iPhone-ready with a Monster iSoniTalkā„¢ headphone cable with built-in answer button. I love the design. It’s simply awesome.

Beats by Dr. Dre Tour ControlTalk In-Ear Headphones from Monster3. Beats by Dr. Dre Tour ControlTalk In-Ear Headphones from Monster (US$169.95)
Probably, you do not like headphone with spacious earcups. The in-ear headphones, also from Monster, may be your choice. The high-definition headphone offers extreme clarity, deep bass and full power. It also includes Monster ControlTalk for on-cable iPod/iPhone playback control and hands-free calling. It’s much much better than the headset comes with your iPhone.

Plantronics Discovery 975 Bluetooth Headset4. Plantronics Discovery 975 Bluetooth Headset (US$106.94)
With simple and stylish design, the Plantronics Discovery 975 is a great bluetooth headset to pair with the iPhone. It delivers clear conversations even in harsh conditions and works seamlessly with iPhone via the QuickPair Technology. It offers 5 hours talk time and up to 1 week standby time. The best is it bundles a carry/charging case with internal rechargeable battery to double your talk time.

Mophie Juice Pack Case and Rechargeable Battery5. Mophie Juice Pack Case and Rechargeable Battery for iPhone 3G, 3GS (US$91.58)
If you’re heavy Internet user, you probably run out of battery during the middle of the day. Mophie Juice pack case may be for you.

Apple Magic Mouse9. Apple Magic Mouse (US$68.95)
As an iPhone user, you’d love the multi-touch interface that lets you control everything on iPhone by using only your fingers. Apple has extended this revolutionary multi-touch interface to its Magic Mouse. The new wireless Magic mouse comes with no wheel, no scroll button or scroll ball. The mouse surface is now a one-piece touchpad with multi-touch sensor. I’ve tried in Apple retail store. It’s simply great!

Amazon's Kindle10. Kindle Wireless Reading Device – International Edition (US$259)
You may have installed Kindle app for iPhone and use it to read eBook. I admit iPhone is a revolutionary device but due to the limited screen size, it’s not a perfect gadget for reading eBook. With 6-inch screen size and storage for over 1,500 ebooks, Amazon’s Kindle is a perfect device for reading digital books. It’s sleek and lightweight, which is a perfect travel companion. The latest edition of Kindle also goes global. You can enjoy 3G wireless coverage at home or abroad in over 100 countries. No extra wireless bills is required. With Kindle app on iPhone, you can read Kindle books even if you don’t have your Kindle with you. The proprietary Whispersync technology saves and synchronizes your reading location across your Kindle and iPhone. Cool, right?

The Orbit ultraportable speaker from Altec Lansing is a perfect companion with iPhone to share your tunes anytime and anywhere. It conveniently connects to your iPhone with a 3.5-mm audio jack and plays up to 24 hours on 3 AAA batteries.

iHome Rechargeable Mini Speakers12. iHome Rechargeable Stereo Mini Speakers (US$43.95)
iHome’s stereo mini speaker is another great portable speaker for iPhone. Same as the Altec Lansing portable speaker, simply connect your iPhone via a 3.5mm audio jack and share your tunes with friends. The two amplified speakers is built-in with rechargeable batteries, vacuum bass expansion, and USB charging, along with a protective carrying case.

Altec Lansing inMotion Classic iMT620 Speakers13. Altec Lansing inMotion Classic iMT620 Speakers (US$99.41)
Another portable iPhone speaker with FM radio built-in. The new inMotion Classic iMT620 for iPhone and iPod delivers amazing clarity at serious volumes, letting you share your music with your friends. The universal dock recharges your iPhone or iPod while you’re listening to your tunes. It supports all models of iPhone.

Contour Bolt Armband14. Contour Bolt Armband (US$34.95) and Nike+ Sensor (US$19)
Are you or your friend a regular runner? You probably love to run with your iPhone and at the same time, listening to music.

iPhone Gift Card15. iPhone (US$25 or up), iTunes (US$15 or up) or Apple (US$25 or up) Gift Card
If you can’t decide the gift, why not send your friends an iPhone, iTunes or Apple gift card and let them choose the product. They’ll also love it. But remember the gift card is for U.S. only.
