We wrap up another week of deals with a trio of free, or next-to-free items. First up is a new batch of App Store freebies, including “Extreme ExposeIt! Awesome Ford Mustangs 2005-2010!” (Liberal use of exclamation marks also apparently thrown in for free.) Next is an acrylic case for your iPhone for under a half-buck. Finally is Pollux for the Mac, a music organization assistant for $7.
Along the way, we’ll also check out various gadgets that caught our eye. As always, details on these and many other bargains can be found on CoM’s “Daily Deals” page right after the jump.
