Forget about Bluetooth headsets and charging docks. Stick to iPhone accessories you can really use, such as mini-windshield wipers that prevent those annoying screen smudges or airbags designed to protect your iPhone from falls.

Own an Apple iPhone ? Odds are that if you do, you're now completely infatuated with the device. After all, what's not to love about this sexy multimedia device? I swoon every time I come in contact with that sleek black interface and shiny touchscreen.

Since the release of the iPhone, Apple has experienced quite a profit margin. In Q1 of this year alone, the company sold a whopping 2.3 million iPhones. Multiply that by $500, and that's more money than any blogger or editor will ever see (for the most part, anyway)!

Of course, that's only the beginning for Apple. The iPhone accessories market is also thriving. Chances are that if you own an iPhone you've got a Bluetooth headset, cover or holder, and charging dock. But that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to iPhone accessories. There are a ton of accessories that are really useful that you may never have heard of. For example, there's a set of airbags designed to protect your iPhone from falls, and mini-windshield wipers that prevent those annoying screen smudges. Or what about specialized Web apps that let your iPhone light the way when you're in the dark.

We've uncovered a slew of Apple iPhone accessories in development that will likely change your mobile life forever. Get a closer look at these innovative iPhone accessories and prepare to be blown away.
