New StickiT Skins for iPod Nano from Europe Digital
Thursday, September 15, 2005

Everyone who buys an iPod Nano is going to want to keep it scratch free.

The trouble with putting it in a case is that you cannot see the awesome design of the Nano and it also adds to the overall size of the iPod. Well, head on over to ebay and bag yourself a StickiT.

This new product from Europe Digital (seller name on ebay europedigital) sells a thin plastic skin that covers the front, back and screen of the iPod Nano. The click wheel, top controls, dock connector and headphone socket remain fully accessible.

All for a very reasonable cost of £4.99.

The StickiT is available worldwide and looks like a very wise buy.

So the iPod Nano takes on Mork
Wednesday, September 14, 2005

Very quick post here, with an iPod Nano on the way, I keep seeing forums with users giving various meanings for the word 'Nano'.

Now, I know this is not entirely correct, but I thought Mork (aka Mork & Mindy) used to call Orson (excuse the spelling) with 'Nano Nano, Mork calling Orson, come in Orson'.

Now if I was Robin Williams I would be straight onto the lawyers for a cut of Apple's profit :-)

XBox 360 Gathering Momentum
Saturday, September 03, 2005

It seems that news of the XBox 360 is now gathering momentum, though we could really do with a concrete announcement from Microsoft with a form release date.

All pointers are towards a November 25th release date, with many online pre-orders for the initial batches already sold old.

Game in the UK are taking pre-orders online, but have sold their first allocation. For a launch day 360 you are probably better off searching for a store with a small pre-order list. At least that way you might get one on launch day.
