It’s more than the design that makes Apple’s iPhones and iPod Touches so much an object of desire. It’s the addictive applications that turn them into games consoles, which we all desire.
Google Earth
To begin with, you can use Google earth to Zoom in and out of a 3D world with a tap of the screen – or search by place name and go straight to a location. As with all these applications, you can download it from the iTunes Store.
Bloom
Music composer Brian Eno made this odd synthesizer programme that uses tunes from you tapping the screen. Coolr stuff, which eats up your battery. It’s only£2.39.
Puzzle Quest
A Lord Of The Rings fantasy meets block puzzling. Like Tetris in pants. Possibly the best handheld game ever made, now just £5.99.
Midomi
Play a song to the free-to-download Midomi and it identifies what it is – even if it’s you humming it.
Spore Origins
Unfortunately you don’t get to build a space faring civilization in the £3.99 iPhone version of this evolution sim – you’re a piece of plankton instead. Still, adding tentacles and eyes as you swim around is relaxing and fun.

I’m sure you were waiting for this one. The iLive CD+G Karaoke Machine with Dock for Apple iPod is out in the market. So, now after a long, hard day of work you can unwind by singing the lyrics to to your favorite number. The iLive is unique because it supports CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and CD-G playback and most Apple iPod models (also charges them while docked which is an added perk). The display is a little cramped but gets the job done at 5" and includes built-in speakers for an easy set up.

The machine also has adaptable sound features varying from master volume, microphone volume, echo, balance and automatic voice management for an enhanced tone. Also, A/V inputs and outputs allow you to send lyrics to your TV screen for easy group viewing and 2 microphone jacks ensure the great duet on Ebony & Ivory. The iLive will supply hours of fun, and is a must have in this iPod digital age.

iLive has been making lots of audio products for the iPod. The company will bring two new product lines in 2009, wireless speakers and iPhone docking solutions. Here are the details of the first product: The new wireless speakers for iPod include the iS809B and the iS819B.

The iS809B and iS819B, only $129.99 and $149.99 respectively, are chic additions and for home, office or out on the deck. The wireless speakers with each system are full 2.4 GHz, active multi-channel with Channel Purity units, with wireless assignment for good sound and balance. The main controls and iPod control for the two systems are easily operated using the RF remotes included. The iLive wireless music systems both have AC power adaptors, line input, and built-in clocks, while the speaker can run on either AC or batteries as per usage.

Whether they admit it or not, it’s irrefutable that the Microsoft Zune line of portable media players borrow its inspiration from the Apple iPod line. Starting out with the first Zune that was similar to the current iPod classic.
Touch screens are appearing to be the entire fume now days; it would only make sense for Microsoft to capitalize with the release of a Microsoft Zune Touch. As you can imagine, the Zune Touch would be opposing directly against the iPod touch. Also as you can see, no specific specs or features have been revealed about this currently reclusive device, so we’re just going on our instincts for now.

After kicking the year of 2008, the fiscal year of 2009 has ended on 27 December, 2008. The company is getting outstanding results which was made after feeling that they have iPods for sale .They have generated over $3.6 billion which was in cash during the third quarter. Earlier the iPods were originally in two colors either silver or black. Now it is time for different funky colors like pink and purple. Survey says that people have been looking mostly for pink iPods last Christmas. Due to its popularity we find iPods for sale at any store that sells electronics

Many people use MP3 players to enjoy their favorite music. Among all the players in the market iPods are the most popular and well known music players. People are very crazy and want to find iPods for sale at any store that sells electronics. If you shop at any Apple Store they will have every type of iPods for sale. Apple has quietly updated its iPod software so that songs purchased from different stores cannot be played on iPod.

Apple is a company of long road of developments in the pipelines. They have long map for various schemes to bring iPods for sale for their users. They have been concentrating on the weight of the iPods and iPhones. They are riding on the waves of success and planning to bring more new iPods for sale for us. They know that they are jewels of the economy and they are unveiling this truth very slowly.

Slacker has launched a free application to all users in the US so that they can enjoy music over 10,000 artist stations, 100 programmed Slacker stations and also have access to unlimited custom stations of their own choice.

Very soon you can the latest game FLIP on your iPhone/iPod Touch. It comes in three different modes like Standard, Puzzle and Speed. The Standard mode of this game is similar to the other games like Bejeweled and Columns where you have to collect gems by matching the same-colored ones as vertically or horizontally. However, while using FLIP, you may rotate the iPhone in any direction or use its touch screen for dropping the gems at the correct place.

There are few features of the game which take the full advantage of the motion sensors and touch screen. Flip also has a puzzling mode that takes you through a series of puzzles of matching gems to pulsating-shadows of same color. All the three modes can be enjoyed along with your favorite tune playing at the background on the iPhone/iPod Touch.

As people get ready to return to work after two weeks of holiday festivities, it seems fitting to turn our attention to a pair of business and productivity iPhone and iPod touch apps that have debuted in the App Store recently. First up is Instaviz, a graph sketching program from Pixelglow Software. The $10 application takes any rough sketches you’ve drawn on the screen of your iPhone or iPod touch and transforms them into neatly drawn ellipses, circles, rectangles, squares, and other shapes.
If you add a line between two shapes, the app redraws your graph accordingly. Meanwhile, iMNotes from RERLSoft promises over-the-air access to sticky notes for Microsoft Exchange users. The $4 app lets you create, edit, view, and search Outlook sticky notes in real-time. You can also create a note on your iPhone or iPod touch and watch it appear on Outlook.

Besides other things, the iPod has come to represent mobile music; if you’re looking for portable speakers, then, what better than iPod-shaped ones?  Jordan Horwich put together a pair of individually-amplified stereo speakers using two original iPod casings: inside each there’s a 2.25-inch speaker cone, volume control, Altoids Tin Speaker amp and DIY battery holder.
While it might seem straightforward, there isn’t a huge amount of room in even the chunky early-generation iPod cases.  Squeezing in the components required more than a little Dremeling and some compromises in parts.  If you fancy trying it yourself, but haven’t got two iPod casings lying around, factor in their not-inconsiderable cost, too; Jordan paid $100 for his.

We might very soon have iPods with really big displays. While Tec Crunch’s sources claim to have actually handled one of the iPod prototypes with big screens, and Apple is talking with manufacturers in Asia about mass production of the device, according to the report. Certainly at that size, the device would be more of a tablet than an iPod, and tablet rumors have been floating around Apple for years. There was a fury of speculation in August after a number of Mac sites pointed to a U.S. patent application granted for what would appeared to be the mythical Mac tablet. Apple Insider published a description of the device discussed in the application, which appears to bring a lot of the iPhones multitouch functionality to a slate-like tablet computer.

Earlier this year, CEO Steve Jobs implied Apple was watching small-device categories like tablets and Notebooks to see if they actually take off as a mega-trend. But Jobs has also quickly shot down talk of an Apple-produced competitor to Amazon's Kindle, which has been interpreted as a sign Apple was doing just that.
