Apple lets users run Windows

Apple lets users run Windows There were hints from Apple’s executive that the company was not hostile to the idea of having windows run on the new intel-based Mac computers, but Apple somewhat surprised us by providing Windows drivers and dual-boot support so early. I think that this will prove to be a great idea because quite frankly, the value of their laptops is not bad if we compare it to their PC counterparts. I’m sure that a lot of people would buy a MacBookPro and run Windows on it. I might, but I’m still waiting for the 13.3” widescreen one. Wall Street seems to agree, because Apple’s stock is up 7.26% to $65.61 right now…

DLO iPod nanoTune FM Transmitter and Radio:

post from Mr.Gadget Australia on 05 April 2006 06:19:00 PM. © Mr.Gadget Australia

DLO iPod nanoTune FM Transmitter and Radio Product Page I just bought my iPod Nano the other week, and I must say, I am absolutely rapped with it! It's so small, yet kicks out great quality sound. I already had the DLO Transpod for my car, which I have been very impressed with. The FM transmission quality of it far exceeds previous and other current FM transmitter products. I have also bought the DLO Action Jacket case for my nano, which has a quality finish and strong, rotatable clip - just what I need for running. Do you see where I'm going with this??? Not only do I love my new Nano, I also have built a very healthy opinion of the quality and performance of DLO iPod products. Well when I saw the new DLO iPod nanoTune FM Transmitter and Radio, I became very excited... very quickly!

This comprehensive device both protects your iPod nano from the harsh surrounding environment whilst giving you the option of tuning it into your stereo, whether it is in the car or house. This is one weak point of the Transpod... you have to use it in the car. However you are not limited to this with the nanoTune.

However it doesn't stop there!! You also transform your nano into an FM radio so you can listen to your favourite stations on the run, and for those whose hearing may not be as good as it used to be, the nanoTune gives you the option of boosting volume by up to 25%!! The only thing this really cool device doesn't do is charge your nano. However it comes with a dock connection so you can use an existing car charger as well as being able to synch your nano without having to take it out of the case!

And to add to it's incredible functionality, the nanoTune is compact in size and neat and strong in build, meaning one of the biggest assets of the nano... it's incredibly small size... is not compromised! Can you tell I'm excited! Compliment your Nano beautifully with the ultimate accessory in the DLO nanoTrip!!

Features of the DLO iPod nanoTune FM Transmitter and Radio:

* The nanoTune's FM Transmitter
The handheld DLO nanoTune wirelessly plays an iPod nano?s music over any available FM radio. The built-in FM Transmitter broadcasts the iPod nano?s music in a car, over a home stereo or even a portable radio like the DLO iBoom. The nanoTune will broadcast over any FM frequency, from 88.1 to 107.9. You simply find an unused or weak frequency on your FM radio, match the station on your nanoTune and play your nano?s music out loud.

* The nanoTune's FM Radio
The DLO nanoTune also adds an FM radio to the iPod nano. Want to quickly check the weather or a sports score? With the push of a button, the nanoTune switches to FM Radio Mode and automatically pauses the iPod nano while it plays your favorite news, sports, weather, music or talk radio stations. It's a perfect solution for the gym where you can quickly switch back and forth between your nano's music and radio stations with ease.

* The nanoTune's Headphone Amplifier
You can switch modes on the fly. When in iPod Mode, the nanoTune increases the nano?s volume output by over 25%. Tune the nanoTune's FM radio or control your iPod nano using the nanoTune's external controls. The nanoTune features buttons for next track and previous track, volume control with headphone amplifier, tuning in FM Radio Mode and FM Transmitter Mode, and Mode selection.

* The nanoTune's Hard Shell Protective Case
The nanoTune features a flip-up clear plastic cover and housing that envelope and protect an iPod nano during use. The nanoTune is unique among iPod nano accessories - not only because of its multiple functions, but also because it can be used with any existing car charger and most iPod docks without ever removing the nano from the protective case. The nanoTune also gives you access to the iPod nano's click wheel while still inside the case. The DLO nanoTune can also be used as a desktop stand for the nano by simply opening the clear cover and rotating it back underneath the unit.
