Look at your hand for a second. No, closer than that. Really close – like an inch for your face. Okay, now lick your hand.

Didn’t do it? Good. Because your hands are friggin’ disgusting. All of our hands are. I feel like I brought half of Vegas back with me from CES underneath my fingernails.

Looking to help cut down on the amount of nasty that transfers from your hand to your iPhone — or perhaps just lookin’ to make some cash off of the mysophobiac crowd –cell phone accessory manufacturer Proporta has the SteriTouch Antimicrobial iPhone case. As the name implies, this thing wraps the back of your iPhone edge to edge in a germ-killing antimicrobial surface, protecting it from all the nasty bacteria (and little tumbles) you can throw at it.

You can get it for £14.95 from Proporta if you’re in the UK – if you’re stateside, you’ll have to go hunt one down on the ol’ Googlenets.
