How often have you looked at your keyboards and admire the cleanliness and oil-free keys? Many of us would definitely want to protect the shine of our keyboard to retain that “new” feeling.
Now, protect your iBook or PowerBook against spills, dirt, food crumbs and other unwanted elements (such as staples, cigarette ash or dead skin) that may get on and in between the keys. This protective layer will also prevents your keys from general wear and tear caused by everyday use such as scratches and chips.
When you cover the keys of your keyboard, it does not hinder your typing. In fact, it feels kind of nice to to type since the layer is soft and flexible. Moreover, the layer creates a non-slip feeling. You should remove and wash this protective layer in order to remove dirt and oils that may be transferred from the layer to the iBook or PowerBook screen.
This accessory called the ProTouch PB Keyboard Protector by iSkin comes in 2 colours; Arctic (frosted clear) and Sonic ( electric blue). My preference is the Artic as it maintains the same colour tone with the rest of my iBook. You can purchase the Protouch PB Protector from iSkin Store or Amazon Store.
Are you tired of your MP3 songs in your iPod? Fancing listening to the good old radio stations? Well, Griffin Technology has just the product for you. Called the iFM, it’s a radio, remote and recorder all in one for the iPod.
Using the radio function, you can tune in to your favorite radio station and listen away. Listening to a piece of news or music that you like, why not record it into your iPod. Yes, that’s right!! The iFM is able to record live radio into your iPod. You can also use the iFM to record voice memos using its built-in microphone.
Once you are bored with the FM radio stations, switch back to listening to your iPod MP3s and use the iFM to control play, pause, fast forward, rewind, next song, previous song and volume.
Please note that the features are dependent on the model that you have. Generally, it supports 3G, 4G, Photo and Mini models. You can purchase your own iFM from Griffin Store.

Effective this date, iPodMyBaby was renamed to iPopMyBaby for what apparently was a trademark infringement of Apple’s famous iPod. iPopMyBaby.com has included another line of baby clothings called the Oddzballz range.
79% Windows, 20% Mac and 1% others. That is the statistics that MacGears is recording of it’s visitors. That had made me come to a conclusion that there are plenty of Windows users out there who are curious about Mac and a big majority of them wants to use the Mac. In this post, I offer Mac user wannabes 2 solutions:
Firstly, if you are stuck with your PC and have no way to get your hands on a mac, why no get yourself some Mac emulation software or beautify your PC with Mac stuff at http://www.osx-e.com/.
Secondly, buying a new Mac can be an expensive affair to some. New Mac users are always very cautious before taking the plunge as they worry that Mac will not suit them. However, to calm those nerves, many Mac users (previously Windows users) said to me that they will never go back to Windows. Instead of buying a brand new Mac, you are able to find a cheaper alternative by buying second hand Mac which may not be the latest version but will still be adequate for most computer users and also to give you the necessary experience in handling the Mac.
Once the iPod is in our possession, it is simply difficult part with the music contained within the little beauty. Music follows us wherever we go but many stop short at the beach or when it snows or rains.
