Apple Updates iPod Shuffle – Now It Talks

Mar 11, 2009 | |

 

  Today Apple has updated the iPod shuffle with a new version that speaks to you.  The new Shuffle has been shrunken to half the size of the last iPod Shuffle and is slightly more elongated than before, but has increased its memory to 4GB at $79.  It still has the clip like before, but lacks the face controls and they have instead been moved to the earbud cord.  The new Shuffle talks to you and lets you know your artist name, song name or playlist name.  You can control all of this via the in-line earbud control.  Apple has included a new video explaining the new shuffle and its features, check it out at the link below.

iPhoneDevTeam Releases Their iPod Touch 2G Jailbreak – redsn0w

Mar 11, 2009 | |

  Just a day after (depending where you live), NitroKey Slipstream was released for $15, the iPhone Dev Team has released their jailbreak for the iPod Touch 2G.  The Dev Team was trying to prolong their release in order to get the edge on a hole in the bootrom which allows them to continue to jailbreak any concurrent release with the same bootrom.  They had planned to release the Jailbreak once production of the 3rd generations had begun.  While this may or may not allow time for Apple to fix the issue permanantly, we can always count on the free solutions that the iPhone Dev Team will be providing for us who long for more out of our Apple devices.
