TAG RESULTS FOR: iPod

My birthday was on Tuesday and I got about three musical cards this year. Though they were good for a short laugh, I felt bad that my siblings had spent $5 on a card just because it looped a sound over and over again. Luckily, Justin from Instructables has come up with a way to turn your useless birthday card into a sweet speaker for your MP3 player. Essentially, you’ll be dismantling the card and wiring it up to a... Continue reading

I enjoy biking as much as any young guy does but I have to admit, I don’t like to multitask whilst riding around my block. After all, using a phone on a bike is just begging for it to get broken or crushed unless it’s a specially designed device. This Bike Mount for the iPhone renews these fears of breaking an expensive cellphone. Only thing is, the iPhone has some fantastic applications and Google Maps immediately comes to mind. This...

Thanks to a class-action lawsuit, our readers from Canada might find themselves with a decent coupon good towards Apple products. Apparently, the suit was filed over the battery life of iPods and now anyone any bought a 1G, 2G or 3G iPod before June 24th, 2004 is entitled to a $44 credit from Apple. Sweet! Free money, baby! The suit charges that Apple claimed that iPods had 8 hours of use in between charges of the battery. In reality, it... Continue reading

Mophie must be ecstatic. As the first iPod/iPhone accessories manufacturer to nab the coveted “Works With iPhone” seal-of-approval, Mophie’s Juice Pack Battery Extender is likely to be the first sold in Apple stores and such. With an LED battery indicator on the back, similar to that found on Apple laptops, combined with long-ass battery life (24 hours of additional audio playback, 250 hours of standby time), Mophie could easily see increased sales thanks to a single badge on the front...

Most of us love to sing in the shower when no one’s around. I tend to take it one step further and sing while I’m shaving and taking a piss, but hey, if no one’s listening, might as well! Italian design company WET has created the X-Light Surround Basin with people like yours truly in mind. At 142 x 38 cm, this transparent sink features dual basins and an integrated sound system. You can easily hook up an iPod or... Continue reading

An e-mail from usually-decent accessories manufacturer Proporta landed in my Inbox this morning. It was for a Universal iPod Dock that’s supposed to fit the iPhone, iPod, etc. and charge it via USB. OK. Fantastic, right? Not really. Problem is, according to the pictures on the product page, it looks like they took a goddamned iPod cable directly from Apple (the logo is still there on the cable!) and shoved it inside a plastic housing that was mass produced in...

I’m a firm believer in keeping all electronics away from water that I happen to be submerged in. Call me crazy, I just happen to much prefer the scent of lathered soap to the singeing of my own flesh. Don’t give me that “Well, Andrew, technically the gadget has to be plugged into a socket in order to deal a lethal dose of electricity.” This blogger is living on the safe side. For all of you bathtub thrill seekers, Firebox... Continue reading

This muscley-looking plastic meat head doesn’t want to kick sand in your face like all of those dudes at the beach. Oh, no. His motive is much more harmless. All he wants to do is light your room with his included Statue of Liberty-esque lamp, and hold onto your iPod or iPhone as it charges. Really, he’s a nice fellow. Don’t let his rippling white biceps scare you. He’s not here to take advantage of your wife like the paperboy... Continue reading

Construction workers like music too! Especially the sweet sound of a buxom booty making its way past the construction site. Oh, yeah! But enough of that. The point is, that just because you wear a blue collar, doesn’t mean you don’t rock out to a little ABBA every now and again. The ultra-rugged AM/FM Construction Radio is protected with hard side framing, and is capable of acting as both a radio, and an iPod docking station, but also has its... Continue reading

Even if it looks a little too much like a purse to be completely unisex, as the designers claim it to be, the idea is a snazzy one. The Urban Performer Unit is a handbag with slick crystallized controlling, allowing you to operate your iPod from the Swarovski crystal laced surface. The crystals indicate the iPod’s functions, incorporating an emotional feel to a smart electronic handbag. The bag doesn’t only work with iPod’s, but with most any pieces of mobile... Continue reading
