iPic part-2

Someday in road ahead , when I get time, I don't know when will I get blessed by God I will make innovative pics whose theme will be iPod.

Now this is my pic of the day:

Internet access via iPod

My thoughts :

Why can't apple put internet access in iPod. Why do I have to hear download songs via iTunes (AFAIK iTunes comes for Computer and Mobile ) then shift to iPod.

If Internet access is available in iPod. I swear it will be a hit in the market. It will become a stand-alone device doing many things.

It seems to me that Apple's present strategy is to boost the market of iPod through better marketing and publicity. I don't see and significant improvment in iPod from a long time.

What does you say?

Music download from Mobile Phone

I would say a good move by Cingular. Collaborating with Apple and getting a short-term exclusive right, is a smart strategy.

Hope it works out best for the customers....

Apple Shares Up on Profit

Quote from Red-Herring
"Shares of Apple jumped as much as 8 percent Thursday after the computer maker dazzled industry watchers with reports that surging shipments of Macs and iPods drove a 425 percent increase in fiscal third quarter earnings.

Excluding one-time expenses, Apple said earnings rose to $330 million, or $0.38 per share, from $75 million, or $0.10, a year ago. That easily beat the $0.31 consensus estimate of 18 analysts surveyed by Thomas Financial.

Revenue rose to $3.52 billion, compared to Wall Street expectations of $3.33 billion and revenues of $2.01 billion a year ago. Net income, including all expenses, rose to $320 million, or $0.37 per share. Both are record figures in the company’s history, executives said. In recent trading, shares rose $3.05 to $41.40."

I would say "Suddeenly something happend....". Couple of days back the scene was completely different.

Its all market game :P

PumpPod

A good idea. It can be extended easily to make training programs on those topics where a iPod user uses iPod. Checkout : iPod personal trainer to know about the new training program.

But yeah, its limited to image enabled iPod. So it serves a limited customer space.

Also, it would be very simple to make such kind of small kindergarten softwares.

Logitech debuts new headphone

Check out : Logitech . Look at the images and I am already drooling at these headphones, they seem to be pretty costly but looks "wow".

If the color matches, they would look great with iPod.

Also to mention, Earphones which are by default given with iPod are very painful. I think Apple should reconsider given good headphones or they will have to pay sooner or later.

Go back to the History

One more of iPod image series is going to start today.
I am collecting good images on iPod, specially related to history.
Here goes few of them:



As a technology person, you love to see einstein do funny things. This is my
"Pic of the day"



He looks smart, isn't it. I am sure he will be missing it :P


Looks very much natural. Except for the color. If iPod and statue would have been of the same color, I would have gone crazy over it.

iPod sales

I had enough, I got sick of bunch of news articles in past few days which mentions the downturn of sales of iPod. But I really found the article iPod's sales in trouble very interesting and knowledgeable. This article gives a very good insight into how does sales of iPod can effect different electronic markets like NAND mentioned in the article.

Good thing is , if Apple has a lot of stuff in its yard then, you better don't buy iPod now.

50 fun things to do with iPod

In the four years since its introduction, the iPod has proven to be a versatile little device. Despite a relatively closed architecture, hackers have found their way in. Content creators and software makers put information at your fingertips when you're on the go. Would-be designers have added to the fashionable stylings of the now-ubiquitous white ear buds. Hardware makers and enthusiasts have augmented the iPod with new add-on gadgets. Here are a few dozen things you can do with your iPod besides listen to music.

Apple discount

Apple 's decision to cut the price of its iPod shuffle last week may be just a foretaste of the bargains to come for people buying a digital music player, analysts say.

Those looking to buy a new media player may find even better bargains in the months ahead thanks to several factors, including increased competition, falling component costs and fire sales on older models as vendors introduce new devices. In short, August may be one of the best times in recent years to find music-player bargains.

5 reasons podcasting matters to Ebusiness

1) Podcasts lower the threshold for publishing audio content.
2) Podcasts encourage two-way communication with listeners.
3) Podcasts extend the reach of Internet sites.
4) Podcasting can be used to increase the frequency of contact with customers.
5) Podcasts make audio files easy to find on the Internet.
Steve Job compared "Podcasting" to "the Wayne's World of radio".

I think podcasting may emerge as a next big shot for Apple.
