You may be surprised to see another post about a new iPod after my recent post on the iPod Classic 160GB I picked up a few weeks ago. Even though my teenage daughter told me not to get one (strange as it may sound), I picked up an iPod touch. I must say, I'm in love anew with Apple's latest iPod.

I DID find one particular place this device comes in handy for reading blogs and catching up on news articles Read more on Nokia N800 Internet Tablet – A "niche" device…

Back in the 17th century, golfers used to smack wooden balls around rough golf courses, walking every step of the way, lugging their crude bamboo clubs from hole to hole in full Sunday dress, and took your best guess as to how far you needed to hit the darn thing. We've come a long way baby.

I'll skip all of the usual stuff about how great the iPod is, how well it does music, etc. Here's why I bought the new iPod Classic 160GB: consolidation.

I loved the idea of Palm's LifeDrive. Carry all your important electronic "stuff" with you at all times. The biggest problem was the storage limit. The iPod Classic 160GB breaks that barrier, giving you plenty of storage capacity in the form of a device you're probably already carrying. Read more on iPod Classic 160GB – My Life Drive…

On Friday, February 2 I read an article linked from Lifehacker about how Kyle Pott had lost 50 pounds in 3 months using some unconventional weight loss methods.

I started the next day, and using some of the same methods, and combining in a few suggestions from some of the commentors to his post, I've lost 10 lbs in 10 days, without starving myself, changing everything my family eats, or going crazy trying to figure things out.

Apple thrilled many a fan waiting with baited breath when they released the iPhone Tuesday at Macworld, and indeed, we'll be in line to snag a couple ourselves when they come out in Jun. However, one major component was missing from this new device — iChat. Steve proclaimed the iPhone is 3 devices in one: widescreen ipod, mobile phone, and internet communicator, and although the new device has EDGE and WiFi connectivity, and includes email, web and sms…one key app they left out is the obvious iChat from Apples own internet suite.
