The Foxboro Hot Tubs (aka Green Day) this week are releasing on April 8th (in the US) a 12 song EP. I really hope that it is available somewhere in Australia (ideally iTunes) on this date or at least soon. Word has it that their will be a physical CD version coming out late April [...]

iPod Touch Review

On Friday afternoon I finally got my hands onto the newest iPod to be released. My initial impression upon holding the device was that it is heavier than I initially thought it would be. It is however very thin and sits very nicely in the hand. The device will not function out of the box. [...]

iPod nano 3G review

During the week I received a third generation iPod nano from Apple. It was directly shipped from China within four days of ordering. My first impression was that the unit is much smaller than the pictures on Apple’s website suggest. It isn’t as fat nor is it as bloated as depicted. It is ultra thin [...]

Next Thursday 2.30am

Yet another Apple ‘special event’ is coming along next Thursday (South Australian time) morning where it is expected that Apple will be releasing some new versions of my favorite handheld audio / video device the iPod.

Airport and Alice are here

Working Class Hero

Green Day has released a cover of John Lennon’s ‘Working Class Hero’. I’ve got to say it isn’t too bad at all. Not the class Green Day punk rock but it’s still a dam good song. It’s been released to raise awareness of the troubles that are going on in Dafur. If you have the [...]

Alice Cooper is Coming to Town

It was just announced on his website yesterday that he will be coming down under in July. I’ll be there.

Sennheiser’s the Best

Last week I finally got around to getting some new earphones for my iPod after the new kitten thought the old ones where something to play with and destroy. The old pair where a pair of in ear sennheisers that where simply sensational. I then had to go back to the basic iPod headphones that [...]

New Nano

Yesterday I finally decided to get a new iPod nano. My current one which I have had since the nano was first released in September 2005 is VERY banged up and is on life support. Over the last couple of months the menu button has been tempromental as to whether it wanted to work or [...]
