Apple looks set to announce new music related products at exclusive party

Apple has caused a stir, by sending out press invites for a scheduled event that is set to take place on the 9th September in San Francisco. With the empathises on the party devoted to music, we see this as a massive hint that they are going to be announcing lots of changes to the iPod family or maybe new products.

Even the event invitation isn’t much of a giveaway it just shows the usual iPod type design of a silhouette of a dancing man with the usual iPod, and the title on the invite reads “Let’s Rock.”

We have also heard that Apple are working with music industry partners and developing “interactive albums” these will work with the iPhone and iPod touch that will provide lyrics, photographs, liner notes and other exciting material to complement the music.

New iPod touch, it could it be a hoax

So we are wondering if our information spies have found out some hot news, or if it could merely be a Photoshop re-touch or us going completely mad? We are talking about the launch of a possible new iPod touch.

After seeing the Best Buy advert that showed a image of a iPod touch that looked slightly different to the one which is out now, normally we probably would not have mentioned this as it could just be a dodgy photograph, but with the news that the new iPod nano is coming out around the 9th of September, and all the rumours that are flying around saying that there is going to be a new iPod touch coming out it just makes us feel ablidged to let you know too.

Well I am sure we will find out soon, and with Christmas just a few months away, I’m sure it will be out sooner rather than later, we can feel it in our bones.

New Kindle e-book reader could match iPod sales

The kindle e-book reader which is aimed at students from Amazon, it going to unveil a larger screen model, as well as an upgrade on the base model, which we could see in September, the source said that the new model will have a lot better screen and be much thinner, as well as an improved interface which before a lot of users found annoying, one insider said that the jump in quality of the new version is similar to that of the leap between the first iPod mini and the new latest version.

Jeff Bezos the CEO of Amazon has talked very highly of the Kindle and it seems soon we will be able to see if the Kindle does live up to all the hype, the original device which went on sale just over a year ago is said to have sold 280,000 units, this was just a ballpark figure releases from Techcrunch report. Any new venture which has put in $100 million or so in revenue a year is not to be ignored, figures based on the Kindle selling for $399 although its dropped to $359 not so long ago.

We have never seen a Kindle in fact heard of anyone owning one, although a report from Citicorp analyst Mark Mahaney suggests that the Kindle could match the first year sales of the iPod. The one amazing thing with the Kindle is that ability to download any book and some newspapers and subscription within seconds wirelessly when for Amazon, it’s also said that Amazon will lower the price to $299 or in some reports as low as $249.

3D hologram App available for iPhone and iPod touch

A new application is out for all iPod touch and iPhone owners designed by David O’reilly which gives the look of a 3D hologram is jumping out of your screen.

It looks like you are constantly viewing the screen at a viewing angle of 35-45 degrees, almost like it is sitting on the table, it uses the same kind of technique that was used in Hans Holbein’s painting The Ambassadors, so the 3D scenes perspective is warped using anamorphosis.

The software rotates on the y-axis and uses the iPods built-in gyroscope as if we are acting looking around the scene on the screen. You can also move the scene manually with a slider that you will find on the left hand side of the screen. This is all very exciting stuff as the potential is massive within the gaming industry; O’Reilly is currently looking for developers to take this project further.

2008 Concept Audi O: The Mobile iPod

Here we have the 2008 Concept Audi O which has been designed by design student Ondrej Jirec. The car has many influences one of which is the iPod, making this a mobile iPod.

The Audi O Concept has been designed to fuse both a powerful and innovative audio system with the stylish looks of a sporty hatchback. Looking at the exterior there are a number of design features that are common with new Audi’s, like the square grille and LED headlights.

There are a few nice touches to the design of the Audi O, such as the glass running along the bottom of the doors. Also the rear of the car has more glass than your average hatchback, giving the car even more light.

The interior of the Audi O has a bright and airy feel; this is because the roof of the car has a full length panoramic glass.

What this car is all about is its sound system. The audio system features internet connectivity, so you are able to download music and store it in the 650 GB hard drive. If you park your Audi next to another Audi, then you are able to connect to each other by Bluetooth and play your music over a greater area.

The Audi O also has a pullout rear door which has a DJ set with mixing decks. This concept is both for car and music lovers.
