Asthma Pod: Why This 'Pod' Craze Has Gone Too Far
We already knew the "i" craze had passed the point of no return, but it looks like "pod" mania may be gaining speed in the race.
Yesterday I learned about the Apod, or Asthma Pod, which is a colorful plastic case that clips around your standard asthma inhaler. They cost about $20 (or £10 because it's a British company) and come in 7 colors.
Annatto: It's in My Food, But What is it?
Since I am a major health nut, I always read labels before I buy food. I often see the ingredient Annatto listed on packages, so what is it?
It's a natural food coloring made from the ground up seed pods of - surprise, surprise - the annatto tree, which grows in Central and South America.

Enchanted Woods iPod Dock: Love It or Leave It?
I've posted about wooden gadgets and accessories before, but this product is a little more rustic than most. The Enchanted Woods iPod Dock ($98) is made from authentic hickory and branches and is a docking station only — no speakers.

iPod Evolution: Then and Now
Oh Apple, how can I ever quit you? As much as I love my Apple, I can get a little frustrated when it releases a great product, then comes out with an even better one just a few months later. How can I ever keep up?!
Your iPhone and iPod Touch Just Got a Little Classier
Although you only get two options when choosing an iPhone (even less if you're picking up an iPod Touch), you can always express your individuality with a case.

You Asked: Dealing With iPod Case Funk
Dear Fit,
I love my iPod Nano for running but I really hate the way the armband gets so smelly and sweaty! You can't wash your armband as frequently as your running gear because the thin plastic window gets destroyed. The best compromise I've found is to put some detergent in a bowl, let it soak in hot water, and then I rinse it out by hand and let it air dry overnight.
Name That iPod!

The DLO Jam Jacket For Your iPod
Yes, I'm afraid it's true, I am one of those iPod cord abusers who wraps her earphone cord entirely around her iPod when it's not in use. Okay, maybe I should seriously consider getting myself a pair of Sony's cute retractable headphones but for now i'll stick with my Apple buds. Detangling cords is not my idea of fun, but up until now I thought that this was my only cord storage option for my earphones!
Which Apple Announcement Are You the Most Excited About?
It was a busy day in SF yesterday with all eyes on the "It's Only Rock and Roll" event. Not only did Steve Jobs made his triumphant, black turtlenecked return to the keynote stage after taking time off for his health, but iTunes 9 was introduced, and then there were the iPods. Oh, the video and FM tuner enabled iPods.
Another Cute Stocking-Worthy iPod Dock
