| Apple wants your iPod to stop charging for thieves 2007-07-30 05:03:00 Hey, it's no shocker that Apple's iPod is a coveted item even for those who acquire their wares in less than legal manners, but a recent patent application from Apple shows that someone at Cupertino cares about you rightful owners out there. Essentially, the technology would invoke a "guardian" recharge circuit, which would disable any further charging if the computer (or "other recharger") it was paired with was of the unauthorized variety.MORE... | | iPod Speaker Neck Pillow 2007-07-27 05:25:08

| | Apple Q3 Results: Macs up 33%, iPod up 21%, iPhone has ‘Great Start’ 2007-07-26 14:08:09
Steve Jobs can sit back and relax, at least for a little while, after their very impressive third quarter earnings. The Company posted a revenue of $5.41 billion and net quarterly profit of $818 million, or $.92 per diluted share which simply, only Apple could do.
The amazing statistics are brightened after being compared to the revenue of $4.37 billion and net quarterly profit of $472 million, or $.54 per diluted share that they had a year ago.
Shipping almost 10 million ipods in just this quarter, Apple really do have a reason to smile. With the fastest selling personal gadget being the iPhone, things don’t look too bad in the future either. Keep up the good work I say.
What do you think of Apple’s success, are they truly worthy of such great stats?

Supposedly it is the new iPods interface, that is to come out august 7th. It looks pretty interesting, and if it was in fact the new interface, I think it's pretty good. But I would be surprised if this was real. Though it does seem cool, I doubt anyone from Apple would have the ability to make a nice video such as that. But if it is a fake, I gotta give credit to whoever made it, because it looks pretty slick.Enjoy the video :)Thank you for subscribing to my blog! | | Pon un iPod en tus Levi's 2007-07-20 11:07:00 No es broma no, es lo ultimo en accesorios iPod, vaya tela, Levi Strauss anunció hace poco que ha diseñado unos pantalones compatibles con el popular reproductor de música iPod de Apple.No sabemos si serán cómodos o si realmente cumplirán su función hasta que podamos probarlos, pero nos encanta ver a otra gran firma fabricando productos que se adaptan al iPod. ¿Qué será lo próximo?Via ? bright

Con una batería recargable para dos días.Y se podría controlar el volumen y las canciones de una forma sencilla. Lo bueno de todo esto es que para subir o bajar el volumen sólo tendrías que deslizar el dedo en la superficie sensible como si fuera la rueda de un iPod.No es fantástico que el nuevo iPod fuera así, ¿que opinas?Via ?

| | Apple patent attack 2: iPod karaoke, iPod remote 2007-07-20 01:06:00 It looks like Apple is on a roll with its latest round patent applications. Hot on the heels of the recently seen illuminated touchpad and Home on iPod filings, comes two new applications that should have only the fiercest of fanboys excited. First up is a technology which the Cupertino camp calls "Dynamic lyrics display for portable media devices," or as we would describe it -- karaoke on your iPod. Nothing really groundbreaking here: obviously lyrics would be displayed while you belted out your favorite Pat Benatar song, which is pretty unexciting and definitely unoriginal. Patent number two seems a bit more promising, as it addresses the possibility of using your iPod or other "portable media player" as a wireless remote for your PC or media center,MORE... | | Apple's patent attack: light-up touchpads, iPod booters 2007-07-19 01:41:00 Apple, a funky little start-up based in Cupertino, has recently filed a couple of patents which will have hairs standing on end and eyebrows rising incredulously across the globe. Patent one describes a technology the company is working on called the "illuminated touchpad" -- a kind of input device which could track your movements and provide visual feedback via a lighted surface. The application suggests that the optic effects will be linked to input on the device's facade, and that the display might be capable of glowing, ambiguous color effects, as well as direct and specific reaction to motion. Patent two is something of a historical filing.

…Every marketer is looking for something a bit different – some want to drive spend with third party partners, some want consumers to spread the word about a product, and some just want to collect data. If you provide the right incentive, consumers will respond. Every day, consumers use Coca Cola’s “My Coke Rewards” program to report on their purchasing and consumption behavior of Coke’s products. Coke now has the ability to individually profile each consumer and engage in one-to-one marketing by leveraging this data. Say goodbye to messaging that is targeted to a particular demographic and say hello to a direct conversation between the consumer and the marketer.

Spending nearly $50,000 for my new 80GB iPod means one of three things:
A) I should have bought more stock in Apple
B) Inflation is getting out of control
C) My Citi card with “Thank You” points isn’t all that rewarding
Let’s go with (C). At a dollar per point on most purchases (47,800 points for the iPod), the average consumer will never earn enough rewards to get anything meaningful. The points will sit unredeemed for a while and the bank will capture some serious breakage.
How does this scenario build loyalty? It doesn’t.
Consumers don’t appreciate black-out periods on airline miles, credit cards that cap the cash-back rewards, and a plethora of other inconveniences that make this game less than rewarding.
The truth is that most issuing banks just don’t have the margins or incentives to run an incredibly successful rewards program that builds loyalty between the bank, the consumer, and the |
