Originally the iHome series of items might have been something you saw on one of those fancy remodeling shows or in the big luxury homes in the expensive neighborhood. But a lot of the iHome products are surprisingly affordable. More affordable than the iPod that goes in them ~lol~ You can get some iHome portable stereo speakers for an iPod Shuffle (Black) to i-power your holiday get together with tunes for under $50.

One totally wicked gift for the geek girl in your life. This is definitely not one of your average gold bracelets that you buy at a department store. Actually, it’s not one you buy at any store. It’s a total concept design from GeekSugar (photo is from GeekSugar) to create iGems, an interesting combination of iPhone icons and a Tiffany’s bracelet. I think they should go ahead and go forward and make these little creations for real! iFANs everywhere would be buying them up for the holidays.

*special thanks and linkage go to GeekSugar for their totally cool geek girl idea.

We’re on what, 3rd generation of nano now?! Despite my annoyance at the shiny productRED ipod nano I bought for my husband earlier this year being obsolete already, I have to say the the new nano with video is pretty cute. In case you are short on christmas gift ideas and you want to get me something, I’ll take a green one please.

Seriously though, Apple is great at reinventing the wheel and making it look cool, aren’t they? When it comes down to it, an iPod is just an MP3 player just like any other MP3 player. It just looks much sexier. You can have a plain old MP3 from Target or you can have an iPod! Which would you rather have? I doubt I have to wait for your answer, even though the plain jane player from Target only costs about $30! Talk about huge price difference.

I think what makes me most annoyed is how it’s going to be to buy accessories for the iPod nanos that are already in the house ~ and we have THREE of them. Hubby has one, and the older two boys each have one. It was hard enough to find things to go with them and now cases and arm bands and things like that are going to be coming out in the new wider size to fit the video nano. Ugh.

iPod accessories just keep getting bigger and bigger. This is a whole chair designed to use with your ipod. It features powerful 3-watt speakers built into headrest, all powered by built-in 10-watt amplifier.

It’s not just for chilling out listening to music either. There are cords and ports for DVD player, TV, VCR or your MP3 player / iPod music player! The chair is padded with Dacron and covered in microfiber for easy to clean care. Would make a nice video game chair too I think.

I think these would be fun in a laid back office setting, maybe in the break area if you have one. Or stick it in the corner of your own office for when you have a few minutes to meditate and relax! Would be way more comfortable than the usual Bush furniture office chairs that are behind the desk.

So, you like to go walking, jogging, running what have you and you like listening to your ipod when you do so. You’re not alone. Nike knew that when they came out with the cool Nike + iPod technology. Sure you can grab the sensor, you’ve got an iPod already. You’ve already spent a small fortune…. but you don’t have any Nike shoes? Even if price isn’t an issue you might not like Nike shoes, I know I don’t. The squish my feet! And at least two of my kids said the same thing about them.

Never fear non-Nike shoe wearers of the world. Grantwood Technology has heard your pleas and they have come up with this awesome solution. As long as your shoes lace up you can use the nike+iPod technology to make your walking, running, and jogging experience more enjoyable and musically enhanced. The best part is the shoe pouch only costs $6.99! And it even comes in your choice of eight different colors. More than one pair of running shoes? Not a problem at this price go ahead and color coordinate.

Just a few features of the shoe pouch ~

• Securely attaches the Nike+iPod sensor to any lace type shoe
• Holds the Nike+iPod sensor in a tight, small neoprene pouch
• Maintains full accuracy of the Nike+iPod system
• Attaches through the laces at 4 attachment points, low profile

iBlaster Orb serves as a complete docking station for your iPod. Keep your iPod fully charged and synced with your PC or Mac all the time. The Orb is a lightweight compact speaker system ready to deliver perfect sound from not only your iPod, but any MP3 player, CD player or even your PC or Mac or any other device with a mini-jack on it.

System is not wireless, uses the included AC adapter for power. Just another gizmo to plug into the surge protector. Great for at home, or teenager’s room to listen to your favorite downloaded music without the headphones while you work, clean, or whatever you need to do. Portable, lightweight design makes it easy to take along for traveling, but the way the airport tosses luggage around and all the scanners it goes through I think it might be better left at home if you’re flying. (My last flight killed off my electric razor)
