| The iPod turns eight years old
|
| Do you remember where you were on October 23, 2001? I don’t, but I do remember that Apple make a very big announcement, which—at the time—I thought was a big mistake: the iPod. Today marks the eighth year of the iPod’s existence and these days I find it hard to image a time when the iPod wasn’t a part of the cultural zeitgeist.

| Turn your iPod into a boombox with the Lasonic i931
|
| The iPod is a great way to listen to your music in the privacy of your own inner cochlea, but let’s face it: for the would-be inner city gang member chronologically trapped in the amber of the 1980s, it doesn’t pass muster.

| TVonics DTR-HV250 DVR
|
| British Freeview box maker TVonics currently eschews the dark arts of HDTV or satellite content and seems content to plough its own furrow providing well made and easy to use Freeview and Freeview+ devices. This equipment is aimed more at the man in the street or tech fanatic's mum, than tech fanatics themselves.

| Up Close With the New IPod Nano
|
| At a recent Apple music event, the company announced a new crop of iPods. Nice as it is to have a faster iPod touch, I find the 5G nano the most compelling new iPod.

| VinylStudio helps bring your analog music into the digital realm
|
| If you grew up before the days of digitized music, chances are you have a bunch of old vinyl records and cassette tapes stashed somewhere around the house. While the easiest solution for bringing these old albums in line with the 21st century would be to repurchase them from iTunes or on CD, some of those albums aren’t even available in digital format. Besides, why buy the same album twice when there are ways to digitize your analog music?

| WD TV Live HD Media Player
|
| Earlier this year I reviewed the WD TV HD Media Player. At the time I appreciated the fact that it could handle just about any video format I threw at it, but wished that it would also connect to my home network and other services. In addition, the interface worked, but I found it to be a bit clunky.

| What a Broken Zune HD Display Looks Like
|

| Why is Europe apathetic to the iPod Nano 4G?
|
| Apple’s latest update to the iPod Nano — identified on the charts of natural tech scientists as the iPod Nano 4G — is a swank device. Featuring a built-in accelerometer, a crisp 16:9 display and a respectable digital camera, it’s a wonderful cross-pollination of a jogger’s iPod with a video watcher’s PMP. And in the States, at least, the iPod Nano 4G has sold accordingly.

| Why no video camera for the iPod touch?
|
| That's right: The iPod nano got a video cam, but the iPod touch didn’t. If you ask me, the touch, with its built-in Wi-Fi, gaming capabilities, and larger display, would be a natural for a vid cam.

| Yamaha iPod alarm clock and speakers adds wireless docking and streaming
|
| An iPod dock and speaker combo needs to fill a few separate functions. First, they need to be an easy method of piping your iPod or iPhone tunes out of a decent set of speakers. Second, it needs to provide an easy method of charging your iPod or iPhone. Anything else is just gravy, but usually, companies looking to release an iPod dock at least put in an alarm function.

| Zune HD to get Smart DJ, new video codec support, Facebook in early 2010
|
| My inbox was crazy last week during CES and as I was cleaning it out early this morning I saw an email from the Zune PR team talking about some updates coming soon. Microsoft was actually showing off demos of this at CES, but my schedule was already packed so I didn’t get a chance to see these new features. Sometime this spring we will see Smart DJ and additional video content support with Facebook coming during the early part of this year.

| Zune Pass users stricken by disappearing music
|
| There’s a very big trade-off involved when you sign up for any sort of online music service. Sure, you get access to a lot of music for an affordable price, but if the music industry yawns and stretches, as it is wont to do, it can sometimes pull the rights to songs that you like to listen to, you can suddenly find yourself without access to the very music that made you want to subscribe.
