Does your iPod nano or iPod touch lack a microphone? They answer is probably “yes,” but if you want to turn your music device into a tiny voice recorder, and you demand cuteness, now there’s the ThumbTacks™ micro-microphone.

The manufacturer claims that this tiny mic is the best in it’s category. Are there other mics even in this category? You can pick one up for only $12.99.

Meet The New iPod Shuffle

10ipodshuffleApple has unveiled the new iPod Shuffle today, marking one step closer to manufacturing the world’s smallest and easy-to-lose-est mp3 player EVER.

The $79 audio player is about half the size of the current Shuffle and features the player controls on the headset cord–which explains why this looks like a piece of metal that fell out of your computer.

And for those of you who have 1,000 unidentifiable songs to store, the new gadget includes VoiceOver that sounds like a robot voice telling you which artist, song and album is currently playing.

So when does too small become too small for practical use?

The iBreath also comes with an FM transmitter that transmits your music to any FM radio, if you like drinking AND music. You can read more about the iBreath here, or on the official iBreath website.

After the jump, an iBreath video.

The WB’s Favorite Things: The iPig

Moye December 4th, 2008 11:29 am | No Comments »

Jump on the Apple bandwagon this holiday with the iPig speaker dock, with five internal speakers, a remote control and pretty freaky eyes.

The coolest part is that you can adjust the volume levels with its ears. Adorable, right?

The new iPig is available to purchase here for only $119.99, and it even comes with an iPanda bear companion.

I see, I listen, iPhone and iTouch.

Do you like to listen to Snow Patrol? Do you like to be all interactive with Snow Patrol?

If both of your answers are yes, then you’re in luck. The band will release their latest album, A Hundred Million Suns, with an exclusive application for the Apple iPhone and iTouch to provide their fans with a “digital booklet” of information, lyrics, backstage footage and more.

Despite the ongoing popularity of Apple’s music products, this will be the first time a band will be working directly with the two products for their music.

It’s all pretty cool and one step further for Apple in their quest for world domination. I just hope they come out with an iSmell player soon, so you can experience how bad musicians can reek when they get all sweaty from playing music onstage. iGross.
