We start the day with a deal on an iPhone that is about as close to free as you can get. AT&T Wireless is offering a refurbished 8GB iPhone 3GS for just a penny – not counting the $36 activation fee. Also on tap is a number of cases for your iPad, including the Merkury cases and sleeves. We wrap up the spotlight with another 2-year iPhone warranty to protect your handset against drops and spills.

Along the way, we also take a look at some accessories for your iPod and iPhone, as well as software for your Mac. As always, details on these and many more items can be found at CoM’s “Daily Deals” page right after the jump.
