Results Of Our Flash-ier iPod Quiz

Posted on Feb 28, 2010 under ipod software | No Comment

adobe flash apple iphone mobile safariA couple of posts ago, we had had a quiz asking iPoders whether they wanted to have Flash on their iPods. Reports from Apple suggest that they don’t think its necessary! When we checked out the results we just saw a long string of “yeses”. In fact, a massive 94.59% of people who responded to our quiz said “yes”!

The people have spoken, Apple, time to pay heed. Adobe figures have been backed up by our research.

We want Flash, We want Flash, We want Flash!!

Would You Like A Flash-ier iPod?

Posted on Feb 12, 2010 under ipod software | No Comment

adobe flash apple iphone mobile safariThe latest news flash from around the web is that (according to Adobe) over 7 million iPhone and iPad users requested the Adobe Flash download in December!

Now, the lack of flash on our smart tech devices from Apple, has been a sore point for many.  And so Adobe is kinda rubbing Apples’ nose in it when it reports these figures: “Hey guys, there is clearly a BIG demand for flash”

Apple are way too market savvy NOT to know that there are a LOT of people who would like to have flash capabilities installed inside the iPhone and iPod operating software. So why have they resisted? Well, various reasons have been proposed:

* because it needed to establish its own Apple-controlled iPhone SDK

* to lower the chances of users using the app store, thus lowering Apple’s revenues.

* Flash crashes so often that Apple’s engineers went out of their way to create a new mechanism for running plugins

This is a subject dear to the hearts of many a techy. But do we iPod users care? Is it such a big deal for us? Do we evden know what difference it would make to what we can do, or listen to or watch on our iPods?

We thought we would just ask!

Flash on iPod?

More iPod TV for free!

Posted on Jun 27, 2009 under free ipod movies, ipod software | 7 Comments

We normally don’t do any posts on any software without trying it first. So be warned that we have not tested this one out. Basically, because we could not get the Mobile TV Center demo to install!! The wrap on the site and the video below makes the software look like its worth a try - so we are letting you know about it. If you can get it to work then you can watch pre-recorded TV shows on your iPod - it auto converts and loads them to your iPod.

Let us know how you go with it - and if you get it to work, tips for the rest of us!

How To Get Free Movies and TV SHows on Our iPods

Posted on May 30, 2009 under free iPod stuff, ipod movies, ipod software | 4 Comments

This afternoon I put two episodes of my favorite TV show on my iPod to watch while I am traveling Free iPod moviestomorrow. Hmm - that sounds like it took all afternoon. When actually - using the best software I have used in a very long time  - it took but moments. In know - I should do a commercial on it or something!

But I admit I’m pretty chuffed about it. Like four clicks and the shows were on my iPod. It was that easy to use and that fast.

Now, I did have the video files already on my computer (I’ll explain how I got them in my next post). And using this free TransferMy Videosoftware, it was a case of clicking ‘browse’ to find the video file, clicking on the image provided to choose iPod, clicking ’start converting’, and a few minutes later - iTunes opened and the video was ready to be synced to my iPod. It was GREAT! And it was free!!

Now, I admit, the free version does have a watermark in the middle of the screen - which can be annoying. But if it bothers you, then its real cheap software and well worth getting. AND I found a promo for it - only works for the next couple of days - but I’m gonna get it and I thought I’d post it here for anyone else who might be interested.

The Free version can be got HERE

Instant Youtube on iPod - Well, almost!

Posted on Feb 24, 2009 under free ipod videos, ipod software | 3 Comments

Youtube has many fans. Two on the iPodbomb team are what you would call real fanatics! So it was great to find a relief to find a way for them to watch YouTube on their own time on their iPods!! Because we found some great free software that downloads and convert YouTube videos for iPod viewing in a one-click operation: Tooble!

Tooble is not new - but we realized that we had not done a post on this neat bit of software and decided is was overdue for sharing. Its basically click, click watch - as the following really short video shows:

Tooble for iPod

Lets see who can download a video to their iPod the fastest! Ready, steady…. Go!

Ipod left out of the limelight at Macworld

Posted on Jan 09, 2009 under ipod accessories, ipod software | 4 Comments

Macworld Opens with Major New Product Announcements …that are, for iPod, not “major” and, not “new” .

The image “http://farm1.static.flickr.com/136/353227773_4805ee7081.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Not a particularly impressive event for iPod owners. OK, there were some sessions for educators to promote the use of iPods and/or iPhones in the classroom that may have been of interest to a very select few. But otherwise the event was fairly ho hum for iPod owners.

The only “new” products worth mentioning, are the Phoenix iPod Recovery System - designed to:

recover music files, video files, podcasts, audiobooks and other inaccessible media from frozen or damaged equipment.

Stellar Phoenix iPod Recovery screenshot 2But even so, its not “new” . It was reviewed by Softpedia back in August 2008, and anyway, there are other products that do this, so the concept is not new, either. So not a really life altering announcement!

Stellar provide a free demo version of the software (you can download from their site). The demo version will repair corrupted and deleted music and video files (not clear if other media files are also repaired with the demo) BUT, you can only save the recovered music and video files by purchasing the full version of the software!!

So not sure what the benefits of the free demo are? Perhaps its just a hook to get us to try - then tell us “yes, we have detected 300 music and video files that are corrupted and they are now repaired…. and if you purchase the software you can have them! Still, at $US39.99, that might be worth it?

.

The second “new” product is, in fact, the debut for:

the 3rd generation of the Hookup- Lanyard, which wirelessly connects the iPod nano or iPod touch to a cell phone

Again, a useful tool - no doubt about it. But 3rd generation is hardly worthy of the title: “major new product”!

Perhaps of more interest is the new iPod Docking station with WiFi streaming capability that Lenntek also plans to release at Macworld. However, whilst this capability may be new to Lenntek,its not new to the iPod world! There are, after all, other docking stations already on the market with these capabilities.

So a disappointing event for iPod owners with little to excite and sadly, nothing worth lining up for hours or days to get!
