This article features several software and hardware devices which can give an iPod extra features. Pod2Go from Kanjow Software gives iPod the power to retrieve Really Simple Syndication news headlines; manage and display contacts, schedules, email, and notes from Apple's applications, among others. The software iLingo from Talking Panda transforms any dockable iPod into a compact language translator that'll help one communicate with the locals, as long as they resided in a country that speaks one of the four included tongues. Talking Panda offers four language modules--French, German, Spanish and Italian. Meanwhile, the iPod It software from ZappTek allows one to sync the Entourage contacts, email, events, notes and tasks between the Mac and the iPod. It can also sync data from Apple applications, including Address Book, Mail, iCal, and Stickies. The iBeam from Griffin Technology can transform the iPod into a laser pointer or flashlight. It is actually a set of two small devices that attach to a 'Pod's minijack. With Belkin's Voice Recorder for iPod or Griffin's iTalk, an iPod can play and capture sound. Both devices transform an iPod into a voice recorder and save audio as a WAV file without requiring any additional software. |
