iPod Imbulse Buys
I was given a new 15gb iPod in celebration of 5 years at Erickson Barnett (formerly, eDesign). It is by far the coolest thing I own. And even though it was free to me, it has been the genesis of more than one impulse buy. The latest evidence of this:
The iTrip is, as the site says, "the coolest iPod accessory in the world." It transmits whatever your iPod is playing over a customizeable radio station freequency. To listen to the iPod, just tune a nearby radio (like the one in your car) to that frequency and you have wireless audio. Ships July 21st.
The PowerPodAuto is more of a utilitarian buy. Now that I have grown as attached to the iPod as to my own thumbs, my greatest fear is being in the car and having the iPod's batteries die. I will live in fear no longer.
