Apple iPod Touch
For those who checked out the iPhone but didn't get one, Apple has another choice, and has unveiled the Apple iPod Touch. It looks like a twin to Apple's iPhone, but it isn't a phone. It's a portable digital media player with internet capabilities available in 8GB or 16GB models. Your music, websites, videos and photos are all at your fingertips. The iPod Touch has a 3.5 inch widescreen display; images come alive on the bright, vivid 320 by 480 pixel display. This gadget offers much of the same technology of the Apple iPhone, such as the multi-touch screen. You can glide through albums with Color Flow, tap through photos and enlarge them with a touch. The iPod Touch's touchscreen QWEWTY keyboard is perfect for browsing the web with its built-in Wi-Fi using Safari - searching for videos on YouTube, finding music on the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store and much more. This smart device also has an ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts brightness to suit the lighting in your surroundings. This new addition to Apple's lineup is good for those who don't want another phone. With a capacity for up to twenty thousand photos and optional access to audiobooks, TV shows, movies and other cool features, your iPod Touch will get plenty of use. This gadget comes with earphones, USB 2.0 Cable, Dock Adaptor, Polishing Cloth, Stand and a Quick Start Guide. Check this item out on www.apple.com.
The Gadget Bag
How many gadgets, devices and other electronic items do you have? When you are on the road, do you stuff them all in one messenger bag and hope nothing gets damaged? A better bet is to try The Gadget Bag. It will hold your stuff safely in separate pockets to reduce scratching, and it will bundle them together for easy carrying wherever your travels take you. You will have access to each item separately, so you won't have to remove everything to get to the item you want. The Gadget Bag has four compartments that allow headphones and charging cables to be fed through each section. Each bag zips and straps together into a satchel about the size of a hardcover book (10.6" x 8.7" x 2.8"). The larger bag measures 10.6" x 8.7" x 1.6", the two medium bags measure 5.5" x 7.9" x 1.2" each, and the little bag measures 5.3" x 4.1" x 1.2". You can get The Gadget Bag on www.thinkgeek.com.
