Check out these great drink coasters, based on those ubiquitous iPhone menu icons.
Created by the guys over at Brazil’s Meninos design (the same guys who make these awesome hard drives), these icon coasters are a great gift for any iPhone addict. All your favorite applications are there, from Maps to Calculator, from iPod to Settings. Ah, Settings.
Each coaster measures 85mm square (about 3.34″) and is made from sturdy MDF plywood, then wrapped with a premium vinyl decal and durable varnish to protect the design. A thin rubber layer on the bottom keeps the coasters from slipping around.
Sets of 16 coasters retail for $60 USD over at the Meninos online shop. Personally, I’m looking forward to when they open up the Coaster App Store.

I just wish neat stuff like this weren’t so pricy. I can’t see myself ever paying $60 for a set of coasters. I don’t know if someone like Steve Jobs would even be able to justify such a high price for such a product… maybe for the office where they meet with partners and board members, but these are just too expensive to use as coasters at home. Especially when you see how I treat coasters at home… I put drinks on them.
