    Can't you see this little iPod dock sitting next to your coffee bean grinder and spice rack? It sure looks the part with stanless steel-looking corners and a sort-of utilitarian design theme. Oh yeah, you know you wanna make room on your kitchen counter for the iP39SZC -- catchy name, eh?

    The $75 iPod levy that will solve all of Canada’s problems

    Posted on March 17, 2010 | No Comments
    Apparently it's illegal in Canada to copy music from a CD you bought to an iPod (or whatever). It's simply not allowed, even if you're not breaking any DRM in the process. (In the U.S., it's illegal to copy a DVD to your computer's hard drive because you have to circumvent the copy protection in the process.) Solution? Some sort of levy, which would ensure that "artists" make money even though you're not re-buying their music.

    Pink Floyd only wants you to download their entire albums, not individual songs

    Posted on March 12, 2010 | No Comments
    There was an interesting debate on today's Ron and Fez that speaks to a subject we've been whinging about for some time now: digital delivery of content, specifically of music. Pink Floyd has won a court ruling that will put an end to places like iTunes selling its songs individually. The band feels that their music can only truly be appreciated in the album format, from start to finish, and it never liked people being able to pick and choose what songs they wanted to download.

    Traveling with batteries and ordering gadgets online could soon get pricey

    Here are two totally unrelated things I like to do: order gadgets and smartphones online, and travel with loads of spare batteries. Well, perhaps they’re not all that unrelated. Both offer a lot of convenience and save a good amount of cash, but with a new proposal from the U.S. Department of Transportation, that could [...]

    Samson announces 2 new portable speaker systems

    Posted on February 3, 2010 | No Comments
    The gap between consumer audio and professional audio can be rather daunting. Large speakers require large amplifiers and large mixing desks and all sorts of convoluted patching bays. Another inescapable side effect of these professional systems is that they also require large, sweaty men to haul everything around, and some know-it-all engineer to make it [...]

  • Nokia asks ITC to ban iPhone, iPod, and MacBook imports, files another lawsuit against Apple

    Nokia asks ITC to ban iPhone, iPod, and MacBook imports, files another lawsuit against Apple

    Posted on January 4, 2010 | No Comments
    digg_url = 'http://digg.com/apple/Nokia_Wants_to_Ban_iPhone_iPod_and_MacBook_Imports'; Looks like Nokia is going all-out in its patent fight with Apple: in addition to the lawsuit it's filed over GSM standards and last week's International Trade Commission complaint, Espoo just filed a second complaint with the federal court, alleging that Apple's infringing several "implementation patents" that cover everything from camera sensors to touchscreens. That's three fronts in the same war, if you're counting -- the original regarding GSM patents, and these two latest over specific device technologies. The biggest bombshell so far is the ITC complaint, in which Nokia's asking the commission to ban imports of basically every Apple mobile product from the MacBook to the iPhone for infringing its device patents -- a strategy we've seen in other high-profile cases. Since the ITC has the ability to move quite quickly, we'd expect that case to be the primary battleground for the moment -- but remember that Apple has plenty of its own incredibly broad patents of its own to fight back with here, so don't expect a quick resolution. Looks like 2010 is going to be awfully good for these attorneys, don't you think?

    [Thanks, Matt]

  • The courts say don’t blame Apple if your iPod caused you to go deaf

    The courts say don’t blame Apple if your iPod caused you to go deaf

    Posted on December 30, 2009 | No Comments
    The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld a 2008 ruling that stated the iPod does not pose an unreasonable risk for hearing loss even though everyone knows the old stock iPod earbuds were the worst earbuds ever made. (I added that last part) The original case augured that because the iPod earbuds were designed to sit so far back in the ear, and the iPod itself does not have any volume meters or noise-isolating properties, that the device could be made safer. But the courts just told the plaintiffs to shut-up and sit down.

    iHandstick snap-on dresses your iPhone / iPod Touch up as a Playstation controller

    Posted on December 10, 2009 | No Comments
    The iPod touch (and technically the iPhone as well) may well be "the funnest iPod ever," but it can also be the most awkward device to hold for prolonged gaming sessions, nor have previous attempts made things any better. The iHandstick might just do the job -- while we can't credit them for originality, this hollow cousin of the Playstation controller may satisfy owners of iPod touch 2G / 3G and iPhone 3G / 3GS. Remember, it should give a similar grip enjoyed by millions of Playstation gamers over the last 15 years. The only doubt left is whether our thumbs can easily reach the virtual buttons on the screen. Wanna give this a shot? $16.99 plus shipping and it's all yours.
