How to Further Maximize iPod's Functionality

Let's continue our discussion on how to maximize the features of your new Apple iPod.

--> Become a Sound Engineer!

Here’s another way to maximize iPod use: by using Griffin’s iMic, you’ll have a USB audio interface enabling you to record your old records and tapes to play in iTunes (discussed in the next article), add to your iPod, or burn to CD and listen just about anywhere. A device called GarageBand (also by Griffin) lets you connect any keyboard, guitar or microphone for quality recording.

--> Take a Memo…

Want another way to obtain “mileage” for your iPod? How about taking a note? iTalk (also by Griffin) will turn your portable music player into a digital voice recorder with thousands of hours of recording time. Now you can get rid another peice of equipment that is lying around, and organize your electronics into one little compartment/pod.

--> Protect what you Love!

If you consider your iPod one of your most prized possessions, you’ll want to protect it. These things do get misplaced or forgotten at airports, taxis, and bars. Here are ways to protect your iPod: you can have it engraved (Apple offers this service for free); track it (Inspice’s SmartProtect can recover stolen electronic devices; cloak it (through PodLock, retails for $40.00). Podlock won’t protect your music libraries and photos, but it will prevent the thief from getting into your private documents.
