New car models to include Apple Ipod Integration

Thursday, August 3rd, 2006

On Thursday Apple said it reached an agreement with General Motors, Ford Motor and Mazda Motor Corp to integrate hookups for iPod in new 2007 car models.

This means that more than 70% of 2007 car models in the United States will easily be able to connect iPods to the car stereos. All 56 of General Motors models will offer iPod hook-ups, as well as many, if not most, models of the other two companies.

Apple’s well on it’s way to solidifying the dictatorship.

The Ipod Nano Epidemic

Sunday, April 2nd, 2006

Yes, it’s old news, but it still seems to be a major issue in the area of digital music players today. The Ipod Nano. It’s a beautiful thing to be sure. Slickly and sleekly designed to near perfection - yes, near. Bragged to be as thin as a pencil, which it is, the Apple Ipod Nano is a sight to behold; until you scratch it.

Drop it, smash it, place it in your pocket, or even touch it in the wrong way and it’s prone to damage. If you buy an Ipod Nano, you risk changing this:

ipodnano

into this:

brokenipodnano

You make the choice.

As if that were not bad enough, the iPod Nano lacks many of the essentials. It is well designed, but does not have an FM tuner and is way overpriced when compared to it’s brothers and sisters.

The bottom line is this: there are alternatives. Don’t buy a Nano. You’ll only be disappointed. I’m a huge fan of Apple, but the Nano really makes me sick. I haven’t felt so sick of such a product since the Suffle came out.
