Touchscreen iPod Shuffle By Apple

A rumour is spread all around that Apple is going to grant touch treatment to the lowliest of iPods, the iPod ShuffleWhich is actually a fantastic idea.

Rumors of a possible 1.7-inch iPod Shuffle with a touchscreen comes from iLounge, which published a bunch of unsubstantiated details on upcoming Apple devices.

To the gut, a tiny touchscreen iPod doesn't make much sense. We're talking about one quarter of the iPhone's screen real estate, and these days the trend in touchscreens is to go bigger, not smaller.

But given the recent history of the iPod Shuffle, a touchscreen would be a logical transformation. With each new model, Apple has relentlessly pursued miniaturization, eventually removing button controls from the third-generation Shuffle and reducing it to finger size.

The reaction was tepid, to say the least. Critics complained that the controls on the Shuffle's included earbuds were difficult to use, and if you wanted to use different headphones, you had to buy a separate adapter or sacrifice the ability to control the music at all. Even worse, some of the earbuds were prone to failure, forcing Apple to launch a replacement program.

This was a classic case of form over function, where the wow factor of a tiny music player didn't make up for its shortcomings in useability. You might say the same thing about the external antenna in the iPhone 4, except that the iPhone 4 actually produces a stronger signal when held properly.

It's for this reason that a touchscreen iPod Shuffle holds appeal; such a device would bring controls back to the mini music player, without making considerable sacrifices. It would also have the side benefit of actually displaying information--a case of function winning over form, for a change.

2010 HARTGE BMW Z4

Anyone with a Z4 sDrive35i (E89) wanting to experience driving pleasure at its best is likely to yearn for somewhat more power under the long bonnet and no (irritating) electronic limitation to 250 km/h and namely a full 350 hp (225 kW) is developed by the twin-turbo power plant of the HARTGE version. Moreover, software modifications to the engine control unit result not only in output being boosted by 44 hp but also in the removal of the V-max restriction.


The focal point of the car is, however, the HARTGE 'CLASSIC 3' aluminium wheels with ten spoke spider, 'Hyper Silver' finish with polished surfaces and HARTGE wheelhub caps with a black emblem and with its decorative screws, this new, one-piece, cast 20" wheel looks like a multi-part design. Dimensions include 9 x 20" with a 35 mm offset for 245/30 ZR 20 tyres at the front and 10 x 20" with a 47 mm offset for super-wide 285/25 tyres at the rear. The suspension is upgraded by fitting a set of sports springs, which lowers the Z4 by 20 mm at the front and 10 mm at the back, pretty impressive.
