iPodDailyNews? When did I miss this? Must be outta touch. Does this mean no more iPod stories on MDN…guess not.
Grr… Griffin couldn’t have come out with this obvious “innovation” when I bought my wife her birthday present last March? The iTrip is a great idea (providing you’re driving out in the country), but playing those files to change the frequency was maddening to get the hang of. Not to mention that when you put it on the shelf for a month it’s easy to forget what frequency it was tuned to.
