Alongside the launch of the iPhone 4 yesterday, Apple unveiled a range of accessories for its new baby. And rather smart they are too.

Chief among these is a newly designed dock for charging, syncing and generally showing-off your new steel and glass masterpiece on your desktop. While the new dock isn't yet listed in Apple's store, and there is no indication of pricing, we managed to track down this shot of how said accessory will eventually look:

Also revealed yesterday were a collection of Apple-designed cases for the iPhone 4 referred to as iPhone "bumpers". The design of the case is somewhat unconventional, consisting of a coloured rubber rim that clips around the edge of the iPhone with no screen protector or back panel.

The bumpers come in a rainbow of fruity colours - orange, pink, lime green and sky blue - as well as the more conventional (read boring) black and white.

While the effectiveness of the bumpers of shielding the iPhone from dust, dirt, cracks and drops has yet to be tested, the new accessory certainly takes the edge off the hard, masculine handwriting of the latest superphone.

    You spend that much money on a fone you'd kinda expect a case to come with it, no?

    I got the dock and it just seemed a bit too small for the phone! I dunno, but the same issue exists with the iPad dock too. Not sure what Apple are thinking, but pretty sure the 3rd party market will come out with some corkers. I now use a Spiderpodium Black and am well happy with it!
