Karaoke for your iPod

October 3rd, 2006 by Mike in Miscellaneous Gadgets, iPod gadgets

iKaraoke
Karaoke has always been a great way to embarrass yourself in front of friends and strangers, but, until now, there’s been no way to do some karaoke on your iPod.

Fortunately, Griffin makes some pretty sweet iPod accessories, and that’s only going to continue when they release the iKaraoke come Winter of 06.

Upgrade your sound today with Creative Xmod

October 3rd, 2006 by Edwin in Audio/Video Gadgets, iPod gadgets

creative-xfi.jpgMost of us still think that MP3s and other audio file formats sound nothing quite like the original as stored on the audio CD, but this situation can be easily remedied by plugging in the Creative Xmod device into any existing MP3 player like the iconic iPod. Talk about true plug-and-play - there is no need for you to install any software or drivers to take advantage of the Xmod’s ability to upconvert your music to a quality that surpasses even that of an audio CD. The Xmod from Creative utilizes the X-Fi technology that enables compressed songs to sound extremely close to the original as it restores all the detail lost during the compression process as well as expanding music to surround sound levels.

Cool iPod Holder, Car Charger and FM Transmitter

October 1st, 2006 by Al in Vehicle Gadgets, iPod gadgets

iPod Car Charger, FM transmitter and remoteThis is probably the best iPod gadget for your car, the 4-in-1 iPod car kit.

The iPod Car Kit includes a cradle to hold the ipod, a charger that’s powered off you cars cigarette lighter, an FM Transmitter so that you can listen to your iPod over the car stereo and a remote control so even rear seat passengers can skip tunes (though if you have kids that class the Crazy Frog as music you may not want to tell them about the remote :))

You can get the 4-in-1 iPod Car kit for $28 from Brando, which is a bit of a bargain IMO.

Wireless Amplified Speaker goes solar

September 27th, 2006 by Edwin in Audio/Video Gadgets, Solar Powered Gear, iPod gadgets

solar-speaker.jpgWhy not do your bit in keeping power costs down at your home by incorporating more and more solar-powered products? The new Wireless Amplified Speaker with Solar Charge TX/RX from iGadget harnesses the power of the sun and converts that energy into juice for seven AA rechargeable batteries which in turn will power the speaker. You can choose to use the built-in solar panels which are mounted on top of the speaker to charge those batteries or fall back on the trusty DC mains in case it is too cloudy to generate enough power.

Aquapac MP3 case

September 25th, 2006 by Marc in Audio/Video Gadgets, Gadget Reviews, iPod gadgets

Aquapac
Aquapac are a company who make … umm… plastic bags? Well yes, but these are not your ordinary bag. Aquapac cases are designed to protect your fragile consumer electronics from water (hence the name). If you’re a regular visitor to the beach you’ll appreciate that water and sand can really make a mess of your gadgets! These guys make a range of waterproof bags to cater for different appliances (including phones, cameras and PDA’s) but the one I’m looking at today is the new MP3 player case.

Broken iPod Reborn as iPod Dock

September 21st, 2006 by methodshop in Wacky Gadgets, iPod gadgets

Got a broken iPod? If you can’t fix it yourself or don’t have the money to get it repaired by iPodMods, then you can always rip it apart and make an iPod dock like Andrew Monks. This photo montage on flickr shows how he teared apart his existing iPod dock and jammed it through the screen of his broken 3G iPod.

It’s a very clever way to make something useful out of a busted iPod. The folks at Engadget think this might be the “start of a very wonderful, very cannibalistic trend in consumer electronics.” It’s always nice to breathe new life into an old gadget that you blew a couple hundred bucks on right?
