I love my iPod, and I especially love my music collection, what I don't love is trying to listen to my iPod in the car. I hate driving with earbuds and my stupid little portable speaker just doesn't cut it. But since the introduction of Airplay, Apple's new streaming technology that allows audio (photos and video) to be streamed from any iOS device to another iOS device, I knew good things were about to happen.

Enter PhotoFast, the newest way to listen to your tunes, the way you want to, in your car. After what appears to be a somewhat labor intensive, although pretty straightforward installation, this cool little black WIFI box will automatically turn on when you start your car and will connect with your WIFI enabled device, streaming your music library through your stereo system. Very nice.

You will have the ability to pause, fast forward and rewind using your iPod. The PhotoFast is designed to transmit high quality sound. Works with iPad, iPod and iPhone.

Surely some car manufacturers will be jumping on the Airplay bandwagon, but until then, PhotoFast is now available in Japan, and look for it sometime soon, in a store near you for around $299.00

Cruz Storypad – Animated e-Reader for tots

Posted: 27 Nov 2010 08:06 PM PST

It's amazing how quickly kids grow up these days. the one thing that strikes me is just how much our kids want to be like us. It's not always a good thing, I mean my 7 year old wants to wear makeup and have a cell phone. But there's a product about to hit the market that might work to a parents advantage.

The Cruz Storypad is a full color, animated, touchscreen interface storybook e-reader for kids. It can also play, music, pictures, videos and games, making it a fully blown personal entertainment device.

Easy to use, with intuitive controls and made with kids in mind, in other words, durable and spill resistant. With a full color display and 1 GB on board storage, it includes an SD card slot for expansion. The Storypad utilizes a rechargeable Li-Ion battery and comes preloaded with 10 animation books and 3 interactive educational games. Comes in green, blue or pink.

I'd like to see my kid with an e-reader in her hands instead of some of the other electronics she has gotten used to. It really would be great to watch her reading, instead of trying to race a hedgehog around the jungle collecting bananas. I'm just saying.

Available soon for $149.99 check www.cruzreader.com for details
