Griffin's AeroSport Armband is the ideal - quite possibly even perfect - combination of wear-all-day comfort and features demanded by runners, walkers and athletes of every stripe.

AeroSport starts with a light, silky, flexible armband of super-wicking stretch fabric, cut wide so it stays put comfortably. Adjust to fit your arm, slip your iPod into the included detachable case, and clip it to the band. The case provides full screen protection and can be used apart from the armband. We've even included an ingenious little cord wrap that takes up the slack in your headphone cable and keeps it tangle-free. High-visibility reflective accents keep you visible for safety at dusk or dawn.

Wide, comfortable band adjusts to fit any arm
Secures your iPod with full screen protection
Case can be used three ways: clip to the armband, clip to your belt or strap, or remove the clip and slip into purse or pocket

Nine New Features of iTunes 9

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 01:34:00 +0000

Prior upon the announcement of the newest version of iPod Nano. One of its popular newest features is its newest version of iTunes---iTunes 9.

And, as Jobs promised, the new version of iTunes is available for download. This update to the most popular media player software brings a slew of small tweaks and big features.

You'll notice some of them immediately when you boot up the jukebox, but others are under the hood. So, we broke down some of the most notable changes.

You will need this guide: Apple attempts to alleviate the transition to the new application with an introductory video that launches the first time you open iTunes 9. It's pretty informative -- if you can get it to download.

Perhaps due to an influx of new users following the announcement, the tutorials took more than 20 minutes to load. Before that, we waited a few minutes for the new version to prep our music library. If you're impatient, start the install process now and keep reading this guide.

New look: iTunes' software design has traditionally been ahead of the rest of Apple's software. This new version introduces a number of noticeable visual tweaks in addition to a completely redesigned store. Apple has also given more options to the browser view, which lets you more easily sort through artists and albums. The new look is getting some mixed first reactions on Twitter.
Share on Twitter and Facebook: Speaking of Twitter, Apple is finally embracing social media, albeit in a pretty small way. The iTunes Store now has buttons to easily send messages on Facebook and Twitter about your favorite songs and videos. Baby steps.

iTunes LP adds goodies to album purchases: Thanks to chatty music execs, news of iTunes LP, formally called Cocktail, leaked long before the conference. But the store's new section of media-rich albums is definitely worth checking out. With versions containing digital booklets and ...

... behind-the-scenes videos for the Doors, Dave Matthews Band and Phish, it's a stoner's paradise. There's a similar feature for movies, called iTunes Extras.

Home Sharing lets you sync multimedia between five computers: College students living in dorms know all about the music sharing feature that's been around for a while. (A quick definition: It lets you stream songs from another computer's library as long as it's on the same wired or wireless network.)

Now, you can actually download those songs to your own library if the original buyer enters his iTunes Store password onto your computer.

Apple bills it as a feature for keeping music synchronized between your and your family's many home computers. But students will no doubt turn this into an exclusive circle of socialist song trading. Or they'll continue swapping music using torrents and memory sticks like they've been doing for years.

Genius Mixes: Genius just got smarter. The Genius feature lets you create play lists of similar songs spawned from a song of your choosing. Using Mixes, songs of a similar genre are automatically arranged together into a new section.

Here's a tip: You won't see the feature right away when you first load the software. You'll need to click "store" in the menu bar and select "update Genius" to generate the play lists.

Better organize iPhone and iPod Touch files in iTunes: Vocal iPhone users have long been requesting the ability to rearrange the placement of apps on the device's home screen using their computers. Adding this feature, the new iTunes also gives more flexible options for synchronizing large libraries with not-so-large iPods.

For bookworms, iTunes U improvements: ITunes U, the little-known educational-resources section of the store, is getting more attention. Lecture videos and podcasts now have their own cubby in your library and a more prominent spot on the store.

More technical options for importing songs from CDs: Are you still buying CDs? Really? I guess you'll have to get the remastered Beatles albums onto your iPod somehow.

ITunes 9 gets a new option to rip songs using a new high-efficiency encoding setting. HE, as it's called, is billed as a more advanced lossy format -- meaning your music will sound really good without eating up a lot of disc space.

The option is a buried in the settings menu, though. To turn it on, open iTunes settings; under "general," click "import settings;" in the AAC "setting" box, click "custom;" now, check "use high efficiency encoding (HE)."

Nice!!! More awesome features from the biggest online music store.

Disassembling iPod Nano 5G

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 09:14:00 +0000

If there’s one thing you can count on – beyond third-party accessories – it’s that as soon as a new iPod hits the shelves, it’ll be torn down to its component parts. iFixit have already begun to strip the camera-toting iPod nano 5G out of its glossy shell and down to bare circuit-boards, and even if chip codes and DACs mean nothing to you there’s something scandalously exciting about watching it happen.

The good news is that the nano 5G seems to have been put together pretty well, with a think chunk of glass covering the 2.2-inch display and the casing reluctant to open and reveal its secrets. The battery is of course soldered onto the mainboard, and nothing inside is intended for user-access or attention.
So far there are no great surprises to be found, but we’ll be satisfied with decent build quality. The iPod nano 5G is on sale now, available in 8GB and 16GB capacities.

FM Tuner: Another Newest Features

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 09:13:00 +0000

One of the newest features of iPod Nano aside its built-in camera is we can also use it as a pedometer. For for those unfamiliar what pedometer is, according to answers.com, it is an instrument that gauges the approximate distance traveled on foot by registering the number of steps taken.

It is easy to pump up your workouts with music, and now a new version just came out that wants to encourage you to move even more. As you walk or jog, it counts your steps and tells you how many calories you've burned. Talk about motivation. You'll want to park at the far end of the parking lot just to increase the number of your daily steps. The screen is slightly larger than the older version (2.2 inches), making it easier to see and scroll through your music playlists when on the move. There's also a microphone, so you can record a grocery or to-do list while sweating it out.

Not only that, this new Nano also has an FM radio, so if you prefer listening to your favorite station while exercising, you can. I love that it has a built-in video camera too, so if you see a snake while trail running, you can prove it to your pals. It comes in nine bright colors to suit your taste and it's pretty reasonably priced — 8GB for $149 and 16GB for $179.

WOW!!! Cool!!! Imagine how enjoyable for those joggers and maybe some can be inspired to jog with these gadgets.

This the second and last part of my post yesterday. Go and get informed with this post and feel free to comment in any of my posts.

The same playback settings menu includes a volume limit feature to prevent you or your children from turning the iPod Nano up too loud.

Annoyed to find your music playback shuffled every time the Nano gets jostled? Apple's "shake-to-shuffle" feature is fun at first, but can become tiresome after a few misfires. You can turn the feature off using the playback settings menu.

Under general settings, you can enable a large font option to make menus easier to read on the Nano's relatively small screen.

Another feature that wears thin after a while is the Cover Flow view that appears when you turn the Nano on its side. If you'd rather that your screen not rotate every time the Nano is held sideways, use the general settings menu to deactivate the feature.

WOW! This really something that can help beginner users of iPod Nano 5G to start with.

OK, so now you know how to manage your iPod Nano in iTunes. Let's also look at some ways you can personalise the Nano using settings on the device itself.

One thing a lot of users miss is the ability to customize the main menu screen.

From: cnet.com.au

Let's say you're really into TV shows and dislike having to click around to find them. If you dive into the settings menu and select General and Main Menu, you'll find a list of media options you can add or remove from the main menu.

We also recommend browsing and previewing the selection of EQ presets in the playback section of the settings menu to help make the most of the iPod's sound quality.

I try to post the whole information from cnet.com, but I think this could be annoying for reader to look for long image after image with simple steps on customizing your iPod Nano 5G image. If you think not, you can still go to cnet.com.au.

The Photos and Contacts tabs are the only two sections that don't reference media contained within iTunes. Depending on whether you're on a Mac or PC, the Contacts tab (a rarely used feature) will allow you to pull data from whatever preferred contact and calendar programs you have on your computer.

For photos (shown here), users have the option to sync entire folders of images stored on your computer, or select specific sub-folders within larger collections. Users also have the option of importing videos from these folders or transferring high-resolution versions of the photos for playback on a connected television (accessory required).

This is another optional step, we can instead use our mobile phone to manage your contact. But this was just another great feature from iPod Nano 5G.
