Apple Computer Inc. launched a recycling program Friday for its popular iPod, encouraging owners to bring their digital music players to Apple retail stores for free, environmentally friendly disposal.

Fourth Gen iPod on Apple Store

Fourth Gen iPod on Apple Store 07/19/2004 09:56 AM

< img src="http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/images/beautyshot_ipod_0704.jpg" alt="beautyshot_ipod_0704.jpg image" width="131" height="220" border="0" align="right" vspace="5" hspace="15"/>So Apple has put up the new iPod product page on the Apple Store, so if you had any lingering last doubt that the Newsweek leak was legitimate it can now be put to rest. As is my usual response to an Apple product launch, I was initially underwhelmed, but have started to warm to some of the ancillary changes (the primary change being the new iPod mini-like Click Wheel), like the one-click Shuffle Songs menu option and the extended battery life. And while that's well and good, since I don't plan on upgrading for the time being (my iPod is still in the shop, but will come back shiny and new, god willing), what I really want to know is if we'll be seeing these changes to the 3rd generation iPods and iPod mini through a firmware update. (Thanks, everybody!)

Update: Looks like we 3rd Gen (and previous) owners are out of luck. The internals of the new iPod are the same as the iPod mini, so the little one alone will get the upgrade. Hate on you, Apple.

The "Digital Divide" is alive and well in Ashland, Wis., county seat of Ashland County, and Bayfield County just to the north -- the second largest county in Wisconsin, though it has no stoplights. "That's the kind of demographics we're talking about," said Kent Tenney, who three years ago approached economic development groups in northern Wisconsin about starting Longrun.org, a non-profit venture dedicated to recycling, refurbishing, and building computers that would use Linux and open source software in rural northern Wisconsin.

Office Depot offers to recycle electronics for free: This is a Very Good Thing. I'm not an Earth-muffin or anything, but old electronics do some really crappy things to the environment.

Don't be so quick to toss out your old PCs, fax machines or digital cameras — office supply retailer Office Depot is offering to recycle one electronic product a day for free all through the summer, according to a published report Tuesday. [...]

The offer includes all brands of electronics, and products including computer monitors, digital cameras, copiers, fax machines, cellphones, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and TVs that are 27 inches or smaller, the report said.

"One product a day" means one product per person per day.
