A little on the iPod video

The iPod Video has a very good video converter suitable for your iPod and its needs. Most people don't realize this, and miss out on many of the amazing features that the iPod video has to offer.

Did you know that the Apple iPod video is also capable of storing your digital images? Another one of the great features of the iPod video is that you can view movies on your computer or a television set. How good is the picture quality when an iPod video is connected to a TV? Some sources complain, but others find the quality "fantastic".

I think the 80gb iPod video is a gadget that has reshaped the face of personal entertainment, and is THE bar to meet when going in a digital media industry. The iPod video is a great gift to enjoy, its this little thin that has everything a musician needs for the road in any moment.

And as for the size , the new 5th generation Apple iPod video is than the 4th generation's so you can still slip it into your pocket, while enjoying video, music, and personal entertainment.

Batteries

I just had a question about the battery life of the iPod.

Although chargeable batteries are great in so many things, they are not infinite. Most chargeable batteries are worn down faster with overcharging, or waiting to charge the battery until it is all the way drained of power.

Although the former is not an issue with iPod batteries (the over charging) one tip that I can give you is to NOT wait to charge your iPod until it is totally drained. In fact, this can hurt your battery life faster.

Although I am not quite sure exactly what the average battery life is for an iPod battery in peak condition at all times, you can take measures to keeping your battery healthy longer by keeping the battery charged at all times.

- Charge the iPod directly after taking it out of the box.
- Unhook the entire charger from the iPod. Leaving the iPod hooked into the charger can drain the power.

To answer the problem - an iPod Battery consists of roughly 500 cycles (all the way low, and then fully charged equals one). Keeping the battery healthy may actually prolong your listening ability.

On Yesterday's Post

In reading my post yesterday about iPod's headphones, I got to thinking about how most people turn the volume up so high because the outside noise is so much louder.

I did a little research, looked around at other people's opinions on the matter, and I looked at this article written by Lee Blue called "Cranking The Volume on Your iPod or Mp3 Player Can Damage Hearing". Boy that was a mouth full. But here's a little bit in there that I thought was very interesting and quite frightening:

"In addition, people often listen to these devices while they are on the go, and have a tendency to crank the volume in an attempt to drown outside noise, further posing a risk to our hearing. Using the earbud style headphones during activities such as exercise, for example, puts the user at a greater risk. During exercise, blood, which can act as a buffer, is diverted from the ears to other parts of the body – so our already vulnerable hearing is in even more jeopardy."

Now, I listen to music while I lift weights. And I max out the volume. I have to. It gets me in the zone. Keeps me motivated. Little did I know it could potentially shoot my hearing down.

So, another encouragement to those of you like me, and too stubborn not to turn it down. Your iPods are great for working out. Just take care that those little beauties are killing your ears. This doesn't go for just the iPod, it goes for every mp3 Player that has the earbud style headphones.

Hearing... is Your iPod Killing Yours?

Today's young people always seem to only enjoy listening to their favorite music loudly, and if you can crank it up even louder, then by all means do it! I want to tell you a little bit about how the earphones to the iPod can damage your hearing if you have the music way too loud.

The ear has sensative little bones and sensors in it. If any of these are damaged it can cause serious hearing complications.

The iPod's ear-buds are designed to rest just outside the ear canal. This makes the music focused into the ear. If they're turned too high, however, this can damage the ear drum.

Newsweek Magazine just recently found a study at the House Ear Institute that showed that audio headphones today can bypass“signal distortion that occurs with traditional analog audio.” This showed that no matter how high you turn up the volume, it is still unaltered and clear as it was with lower volume settings.

This can cause major strain on the inner ear, and potentially prematurly cause hearing loss in today's younger generation.

So here is my encouragement to you:

Keep the volume down, or get new headphones that won't peirce straight into your ears. Hearing loss is frustrating to most people. Unless, of course, you want to get out of arguing with a spouse. Then by all means, crank it up!

iPod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's a fun little definition of an iPod as told by Wikipedia.

iPod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

"iPod is a brand of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple and launched in 2001. Devices in the iPod range are primarily digital audio players, designed around a central click wheel — although the iPod shuffle has buttons also. As of October 2005, the line-up consists of the video-capable fifth generation iPod, the smaller iPod nano, and the display-less iPod shuffle. The full-sized model stores media on an internal hard drive, while the smaller iPod nano and iPod shuffle use flash memory. Like many digital music players, iPods can also serve as external data storage devices. In January 2007, Apple announced the iPhone, a device that combined the features of the video-capable iPod with mobile phone and mobile Internet capabilities.

Apple's iTunes software is used to transfer music to the devices. As a free jukebox application, iTunes stores an entire music library on the user's computer and can play, burn, and rip music from a CD. It can also transfer photos, videos, games, and calendars to the models that support them.

Apple focused its development on the iPod's unique user interface and its ease of use, rather than on technical capability. As of October 2004, the iPod is the world's best-selling range of digital audio players and its worldwide mainstream adoption made it one of the most popular consumer brands. Some of Apple's design "

That pretty much sums it up for me. HAHA.
