Apple to Debut New iPod Design

Apple to Debut New iPod Design 07/18/2004 12:21 PM
Apple on Monday will unveil a new design for the iPod, which removes its four control buttons and instead utilizes the pushbutton scrollwheel found on the iPod mini. The next-generation iPod features a battery life of 12 hours, new menus, additional playlists, the ability to change song speed, and a slightly thinner case. Apple will keep the largest iPod at 40GB for now, but is expected to drop the prices of all models by $100 USD.

Retropod = iPod inside a Walkman body 07/01/2004 12:27 PM
John Young sends word of a retro-riffic iPod mod: "The Retropod is an iPod case made from a vintage Sports Walkman, from which the guts have been removed. Cases and do-it-yourself kits are available, for those Billyburg hipsters that want to make their own." Link. A timely diversion, given the fact that today is the 25th anniversary of Sony's 1979 release of the first Walkman: Link. (Thanks, L. Smith!)

Apple Inside

Apple Inside 08/27/2004 01:48 PM

MIRIAM BOON -- Ever since Apple came out with its iFruit (otherwise known as the iMac), designers have been grooving off Apple's color palette. The iMac girl was among the first, a selection of curvaceous and scantily clad anime chicklets in your choice of iFruit colors. Many a night have I stayed up restlessly wishing I could have one of them for my very own. Or one of their costumes, come to think of it.

Now, the iPod Mini has kicked off a new round of third-party products aimed to emulate the designs blessed by the sainted Steve Jobs himself. The sex toy industry is no exception, although they seem to be a bit behind the times. Manufacturer Doc Johnson's iPlug -- a vibratin', gyratin', stylin' butt plug -- comes in your choice of iFruit matching colors. Maybe in a year or two, when the industry gets its head (or something else) out of its butt, we'll see sex toys that match the iPod Mini. The Audi-Oh vibrator, which vibrates according to whatever sound it's exposed to, comes to mind as an excellent candidate.

In the meantime, those of you with fantasies involving iMac girls with coordinating alien probes: your kink is okay. We just don't want to hear about it.

It's shipping now for US$39.99.

What's cooler than hanging with your fellow iPod users on Miami's South Beach on September 1st? How about going home with a brand new iPod mini in your pocket?

Yeah, that probably got your attention. But thanks to event sponsors iPodResQ, the iPod mini is just one prize among many that we'll be giving away at the South Beach iPod Garage Party. So what do you have to do to win? All you have to do is show up with your iPod, connect it to our sound system, and play "DJ" for twelve minutes as you share the highlights of your own music library with the rest of us (as many songs as you like, as long as it fits within the time limit). Yep, it's your very own twelve minutes of fame.

Prie Hook, which will ship in mid-January for US$54, features a large metal hook that you can use to attach the leather case to a belt loop or other spot. A flap at the bottom opens for charging the MP3 player in a dock; slots at the top and bottom allow access to all the ports. It's available in two models, one that fits all 4G iPods -- including the iPod photo -- and one that fits the iPod mini; the hook on the latter doesn't swivel 360 degrees, however.

Griffin Technology has introduced RoadTrip, a 3-in-1 device that provides an FM transmitter, charger and cradle for all dock-capable iPod and iPod mini MP3 players. The transmitter broadcasts your music on any FM frequency on your car stereo, with a backlit display that shows which frequency is in use, while the charger keeps your iPod's battery at full capacity. The RoadTrip plugs into any 12-volt outlet or cigarette lighter in your car and its transmitter unit can be removed and plugged into a USB port on your computer, enabling music broadcast from it to any nearby FM stereo. Griffin has left the top of the US$79.99 device open for use with other iPod accessories, which means RoadTrip isn't compatible with the 1G and 2G iPods that have FireWire ports on top.

SendStation Systems and RadTech have released two new PocketDock models and MiniSleevz for iPod mini, respectively. SendStation's PocketDock is an adapter that allows users to connect their iPods to their Macs with standard FireWire cables instead of Apple's docking cables. The company's new PocketDock Combo (US$22.95) contains USB and FireWire ports that accept standard USB cables as well as 6-pin FireWire cables. The PocketDo ck Line Out ($29.95) also features a 6-pin FireWire port but adds a 3.5mm (1/8-inch) stereo jack that bypasses the iPod's headphones amplifier for better sound quality when connecting the MP3 player to external speakers. It comes with two six-foot white audio cables. Both PocketDock models are available now and are compatible with Apple's 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40GB iPods, as well as the iPod mini.
