Apple iPod

The App Store offers plenty of unit-conversion programs for your iPhone or iPod touch. Which one should you pick? The decision comes down to the app’s interface—whether it’s simple to use and navigate or too cumbersome.

By Jason Chen The Gadget: The Mint 220 Digital Music Station, which acts both as an iPod dock, but also as a wireless speaker system that syncs via USB dongle to your Mac or PC. Comes with wireless remote and uses the 2.4GHz spectrum to beam music up to 45 feet/15 meters.

By Danny Dumas But really it's the iTunes Tagging feature that has us intrigued. Basically this function lets users tag songs with a button on the unit or the remote (some iPods not supported – see the "Tired" section). This saves the song's information from any track currently playing on HD Radio and tran...

By Michael That is a tremendous number for a game on the iPhone/iPod Touch. I think it clearly shows that the App Store is having a major impact on the iPhone. Many have called the App Store the true “killer app” of the iPhone, and I’m very happy to see that they may be right.

By sam mcloughln Finally as you would expect, the 9-in-1 iPhone / iPod Touch FM Transmitter also charges your iPhone too, great if your on long journeys because not only do you get to listen to your great music but also it charges the device at the same time.

By Jason Chen Shooting iPod music everywhere was cool, but we discovered something way cooler. Step one was plugging our iTunes output from our Mac/PC into the base unit and switching it to AUX input. Step two was using our iPhone and the new Remote app so we could control our iTunes from anywhere inside th...

By jeremy@ilounge.com (Jeremy Horwitz) If you’re still reading, you either haven’t heard the story before or you’re really tantalized by the plot of Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes ($5), the first role playing game for Click Wheel iPods, and also the first iPod game from vaunted Japanese developer Square/Enix. The company’s...

By Michael AOL has released an AOL Radio app for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Now, normally, I don’t really pay attention to anything with the letters “AOL” at the front of the title. I’ve never had a lot of use for AOL services, and came at this app with some preconceived notions about what it might be…I’m [...]

By Charlie Sorrel Product page [iTunes] On Saturday morning, Apple's servers recovered enough to start serving the iPod Touch 2.0 software update, and -- because I was left iPhone-less on Friday by Spain's favorite telco, I spent the weekend killing both my iPod Touch's batteries and...

By Scott Barr So in all, I'm pleased with my new toy. Like any other product, there is room for improvement, but some of the largest shortcomings from the original iPhone have been addressed. Would I recommend the iPhone to others? Yes and no. If you don't own and iPhone and have thought about buying one for a...

By Doug Aamoth We got a request in last night from one of our readers to try out the free “Aurora Feint” game, available for the iPhone and iPod Touch in the new iTunes App Store. Hey, guess what? It’s an awesome game. It’s kind of like “Columns” meets your favorite RPG. Since I’ve only ever been hooked on “Everq...

By James Lewin BusinessWeek has a review today of Belkin’s TuneStudio for iPod 5th generation, a four-channel audio mixer that lets you create high-quality digital recordings directly onto your iPod. We checked out the TuneStudio recently and had some of the same concerns. While the iPod mixer concep...

By Matt Hickey At the WWDC keynote on Monday, where Jobs introduced the iPhone 3G, he said something similar, but the stool he spoke of only had three legs: Music (iPod+iTunes), iPhone, and Macs. But where’s Apple TV? It wouldn’t be a stretch for Apple to add a wireless controller to the Apple TV that mimic...

By Doug Aamoth Setup was a breeze, and the included dock breathed new life into my iPod Touch. The dock charges the iPod and hooks up to your computer via USB so you can sync your music and videos when its connected — a nice touch. The speakers themselves look really nice, too, with a slick, shiny piano black fi...

By Robert Nelson I was able to test this using a 2nd generation iPod nano, iPhone (even though there is not a dock connector that fits) and even a 1st and 2nd generation Shuffle via the aux-in jack and was equally happy with the sound. The only real con we had was that the iPod sits straight up and down and it was at...

By Adrian Covert Devices And Platforms Should Never Be Exclusive: The iPod never really took off until it began supporting Windows with it's 2G iteration. Of course, Apple had more to gain from opening up to a much, much larger Windows user base, but it never hurts to make a product more widely available to t...

By Adrian Covert The iPod function works about as well as you could expect; the menu system is semi-complicated to learn, but functions efficiently with the external button interface, and the window in the dock face makes the screen clearly visible. The i931 is compatible with any iPod up though the 5.5g mo...

By Matt Hickey The VentMount DLO is a company that makes its fortune manufacturing cool and useful accessories almost exclusively for Apple’s iPod. It makes every imaginable case, dock, cable, you name it. The VentMount is new. It’s a type of case for the iPhone and iPod Touch that clips into your car’s das...

By Adam Pash 2.) iPhone headphones with mics don't work with the iPod touch, so if you're using an iPod touch you'll need a Touchmod mic. The Touchmod mics come in a variety of flavors, from the simple dongle that plugs into the syncing port to the headphone-and-mic combo that works much like the iPhone he...

By Devin Coldewey Battery life is excellent. I actually tried to kill the battery by keeping the headphones on for the drive home, through shower time, snack time, and in the background while I wrote, but my iPod gave out first and the headphones lasted through further trips. Charging was fast and easy, using...

By Michael On the back of the device you’ll find a row of ports including an A/C port, a 1/8-inch stereo input jack for connecting another audio source, a USB 2.0 port, and (surprisingly) a FireWire 400 port. For people with older iPods the FireWire port will be a very welcome addition, as it is very rare t...

By Andy J. S. But some other universities and schools are also faced with a dilema on whether to allow iPod or another MP3 player used by their students; it's no secret anymore that iPod is being used to cheat on exams. Exam answers and lesson notes have been found in almost every student's iPod, some are c...

By Michael R. Martin I have been researching FM transmitters for awhile and settled on a Belkin TuneBase FM. My main selection criterion was that it has a flexible gooseneck, so I could angle the iPod towards the driver's seat and easily watch video podcasts (WHILE parked, of course!). I recently picked one up f...

By Doug Aamoth The Richard Solo is a rechargeable lithium ion battery that comes with a retractable USB zip cord and a wall plug. You can charge the battery via the wall or your computer. What’s more, you can plug the battery into the bottom of your iPod and charge BOTH devices at the same time (see below). The i...

By Doug Aamoth The Otterbox Armor Series case protects an iPod Touch on all sides with impact-absorbing rubber while allowing use of the touch screen through a thin-but-tough membrane. There’s an external headphone jack that hooks into your iPod’s headphone jack, a rubberized main button, and a belt...

By Vincent Nguyen It doesn’t end there, of course: wired Ethernet may be unfashionable compared to WiFi, but you’re far more likely to find it in an office scenario, so the lack of a dedicated port could be a frustration to some. Apple does sell a separate USB/LAN adaptor cable priced at $29, which seems a litt...

Belkin's TuneBase FM is an FM transmitter that lets you charge, power, and listen to your iPod in the car by sending its output to your FM stereo. While it seems like every iPod accessory maker offers a product like this, TuneBase FM has a few unique features that make it one of the best (if not t...

By Wilson Rothman Sound quality, sound quality, sound quality. Don't get me wrong: For a wireless system, these sound damn good, way better than the Bluetooth stuff I've heard from the likes of Logitech and Belkin, and even Radio Shack's smart Accurian powerline setup. But compared to other docks, there's...

By Wilson Rothman Over the weekend, I put the ballyhooed Griffin Evolve through the paces. As you know, this system has wireless speakers with their own rechargeable batteries. When they sit on the dock, they charge, but when you want them in the dining room or out on the deck, you just grab them—and the RF remo...

By Brendan I. Koerner Counterspin There's a certain Teflon quality to Apple's iPod lineup—no matter how many technical glitches the products have, demand never seems to subside. That's in large part because the iTunes store has such a lockdown on the pay-per-unit music market right now—71 percent is the las...

By Danny Mendez The Starbucks aspect of the Wi-Fi store couldn't be tested as that goes live October 2. Unfortunately, it seems Apple officially omitted the ability to edit/add Calendar entries without a computer. Hopefully hackers will come to our rescue

By Brian Lam Gripes and design curiosities aside, this is the nano, and the best one yet. It'll make a great sidekick to an iPhone, a great present for those people who you don't love enough to buy an iPod touch for or an iPod you can watch video on but mistreat like you'd roughhouse an inexpensive shuffle. I...

By Mark Wilson And the Griffin comes to fight. Its low range swings for the fence, and the effect is low, loud and a bit sloppy. But the thing can thump. We're talking tubas. We're talking synth. As reviewers, the choice could be very easy. We can tell you all that $350 is the price you should pay to have a good iPod do...

On the back of the amp unit are connections for an iPod (using the included dock-connector cable) and USB audio. The latter, when connected to your computer via a USB cable (not included), lets you use the NX-PS1 as a digital speaker system for that computer. On the front of the unit, behind a f...

By Carol Mangis The Chocolate 2 even has an iPod-like scroll wheel. Finally, from his home base in Davis California, PC Magazine's Lead Operating System and Security Analyst Neil Rubenking chimed in to talk about how he tests security software and what his workspace setup is like.

The Dock Extender is a very simple product: less than an inch tall, the top provides a male dock-connector plug and the bottom hosts a female dock-connector port. You plug the top of the Extender into the dock-connector port on the bottom of your iPod -- the Extender is thin enough to fit near...

Apple's second-generation (2G) iPod shuffle has been a big hit, because of both its tiny but functional design and its relatively low price. But perhaps the biggest drawback of the 2G shuffle is that, like its first-generation predecessor, the lack of Apple's dock-connector port means...

The original iPod shuffle included a built-in USB plug, which let you sync and charge your shuffle by plugging it directly into a USB port on your computer. The second-generation (2G) iPod shuffle's much smaller size precludes the inclusion of such a plug; instead, the newer version feat...

We've reviewed a number of adapters and short cables for connecting an iPod shuffle to a USB port; these compact accessories are great for laptop users who don't want to clutter their bags with tangled cables. We've even seen a tiny USB-to-dock-connector adapter from MacAlly that connec...

Once connected, CableJive claims the Extender Cable provides most of the features provided by Apple's dock-connector interface: audio, iPod control (for example, via an iPod speaker system's remote), charging, accessory-power output (for those dock-connector accessories, suc...

But you're not limited to car charging. At the end opposite the car adapter is a fold-out wall plug; plug it into any 110-volt household outlet to charge your iPod. A USB plug attached to the side of the unit connects to any USB port on your computer, or to any USB power adapter (including Apple'...

Emerson's iTone IE600 is the larger sibling of the company's iC200 iPod alarm clock, adding features such as a built-in CD player. The clock on the front of the IE600 shows the date and time, and the alarm can be set to go off to the radio, a buzzer, or CD or iPod (but not iPod shuffle) playback. Th...

You charge the i603/i604 via its own dock-connector port, which is actually a pass-through port that lets you sync your iPod, using its own dock cable, while in the battery. (You can also use some dock-connector accessories through that port. However, not all such accessories work proper...
