More Bad News: Apple Locks out TV Out on iPod Classic and Nanos
I don’t know what’s going on in Cupertino, but these guys are treading on dangerous ground. You can only kick your customers so many times before they just leave. After enraging almost every iPhone early adopter in the world, today iLounge has another very upsetting discovery.
Those new iPod Classics and iPod Nanos? Yeah…the [...]
iPod Touch + iPhone Earbuds = VOIP iPhone
A frequent reader named Derek sent me an email yesterday afternoon, and pointed out something that I hadn’t considered, but that I think is very important to make note of…
The iPod Touch should be able to make VOIP phone calls.
Since it runs the same browser as the iPhone, that means it will work with SkypeforiPhone.com. [...]
Say Goodbye to Apple Hi-Fi
As some of you have noticed, the Apple Hi-Fi has been removed from the Apple Store. Retail outlets are most likely to follow. It appears as though Apple’s big speaker just wasn’t a big hit.
I remember when the Hi-Fi was released it was deemed a “let down” by most of us. I [...]
Review: Mophie “Bevy” for iPod Shuffle
When I first got the iPod shuffle, I couldn’t really imagine how accessory companies were going to make anything useful or interesting — case wise, at least — for the device.
I’m happy to report that Mophie has managed to do just that with their “Bevy” case/keychain/bottle opener.
I know, I know, that’s a lot of things [...]
“Wireless” iPod Shuffle headphones
Arrivas has released some new headphones that work with your ipod shuffle and effectively make it “wireless”. Basically they wrap around your head in a sort of zig-zag pattern with the shuffle plugging in at the back of your head.
There is something incredibly creepy about these things to me…probably because of the plugging in [...]
XtremeMac MicroPack - Review
The XtremeMac MicroPack is billed as a “super dock” for the iPod. Why? Because it’s a charger, a battery back up, a stand for viewing video, a splitter with multiple headset outs with individual volume controls for each, and a video out for watching your iPod videos on a television. So yeah…I think [...]
Xtreme Mac Luna - Review
There are dozens, if not hundreds, of iPod dock equipped radios and alarm clocks. I look at a lot of them here, but not everything gets reviewed, primarily because a good portion of them aren’t worth writing about. The primary thing that these companies seem to forget when they construct these iPod playing [...]

The device stores the conversion software for switching videos to Apple-friendly h.264, and it also has a built-in processor to do the dirty work for you. Just plug this sucker into your computer, point it in the direction of your videos, and you’ll be ready to watch your content on your TV or on your [...]

Roth MC4 Music Cocoon uses Real Tubes
The Roth MC4 Music Cocoon is a unique iPod Dock to say the least. It is a mix of old technology, and new technology. How? Well…the thing uses TUBES. No, not the Tubes that the Interweb is a series of, but actual real opperating tubes so you can hear your music [...]
