iPod language app limited to newer iPods

iPod language app limited to newer iPods 07/11/2004 05:32 PM
A few weeks ago, Xeni posted about Talking Panda, an iPod application containing hundreds of common words and phrases in your choice of three languages. It seemed like a great deal for $10, so I bought the French version. (I'm going to be spending several months in Paris in the fall.) The bummer though is that for some reason, Talking Panda requires iPods with firmware v2.0 or later. It won't run on the first or second-generation iPods (like mine). Basically, if you bought your iPod before May 2003, you're out of luck. I emailed info@talkingpanda.com and developer Bob Ippolito responded right away:

"The iPod 1.x firmware is simply not capable of using Talking Panda. You can either purchase a new iPod, give the software to a friend as a gift, or I can offer you a refund of $8. Unfortunately it costs us $1 for each transaction (once for sale, once for refund), so I can not offer you a full refund."

The $2 loss won't kill me and, besides, it's my own fault for not reading the system requirements on the Talking Panda site. But I am annoyed disappointed that I can't use the software! It sounds like a useful application and I wish there was a way to get it to run on my iPod. Or that Bob would develop a version that does. Link

UPDATE: Bob writes...

"You should ask Apple, not me. The revision 1 and 2 iPod hardware is technically capable of doing the things that the newer iPods do, at least in this case, but they simply have chosen not to add the functionality to the older firmware. If you want to do cool new things with the Notes functionality, you simply need to buy a new iPod. Seriously, there is no possible way for me to do anything for older iPods, short of developing a new firmware image myself and having the users void their warranty and lose iTunes integration! The iPod firmware is an extremely closed environment and I was lucky that I was able to get the kind of integration that I did."

Flash-based iPod days away

Flash-based iPod days away 01/06/2005 02:35 AM
Thanks to jerry for the heads up in BPN.

Apple's long-rumored flash-based iPod will be introduced at Macworld Expo in 1GB and likely 2GB versions, Apple enthusiast website Think Secret has confirmed. Various details regarding the device have emerged days before Apple CEO Steve Jobs is set to unveil the tiny music player during his keynote address.

Rapidly falling flash prices have enabled Apple to buy 1GB modules from Samsung at a relatively low cost, sources report, which in turn will allow Apple to sell the device for $149. Sources have also suggested that a 2GB version, packing two tiny 1GB flash modules, may sell for $199.

The device is currently being manufactured by Taiwain-based Asustek, which Apple brought on towards the end of the summer as a second ODM for manufacturing iPods. Sources say the flash-based iPod will be powered by a chipset from SigmaTel and that it will feature a screen that is the same width as the iPod mini's but two lines shorter.

Not certain at this point is what sort of touch-based interface the device will use. Some sources have suggested that device will forgo Apple's ClickWheel, featured on the iPod mini and 4G iPod, and will instead have more buttons, like the first generation iPod.

Photoshop rips heavy cultural symbols
out of artists' phrasebook

Photoshop rips heavy cultural symbols
out of artists' phrasebook 01/08/2004 07:49 PM
Photoshop CS automatically detects images of US currency and prevents the manipulation, copying and pasting of same. When my grandfather was in hospital with Alzheimer's, one of his major causes of anxiety was money, but we could soothe him by giving him $20 "bills" we ran off an inkjet (fakes easily detected by anyone not suffering from senile dementia). The images on the US dollar, being a product of the US government, are not copyrightable.

The images on US currency are among the most ubiquitous in our society. They are freighted with heavy symbolism, and have constituted part of the artistic vocabulary of visual artists for generations. Thanks to Adobe's decision to exercise prior restraint over its customers -- to punish the innocent to get at the guilty -- currency images have been ripped out of the photoshopper's artistic phrasebook.

If we ever needed an example of the idea that "architecture is politics" and that "code is law," here it is.

And as if that wasn't enough, the scanning of all images for content reportedly creates a massive performance hit in Photoshop, as your CPU's cycles are hijacked to police your lawful activity. Link (via MeFi)

Griffin Technology Inc. on Thursday announced the release of their AirClick Remote for iPod and iPod mini, a remote control designed, as you might have guessed, to work with Apple's iPod and iPod mini.
