To combat the amount of wear and tear your device might see, the best accessory is a case.

| iPod Touch generates more traffic than most phones |
| 2009-03-31 06:58:00 |
Apple's mobile-device user interface has made it so much easier to access the Internet compared to other mobile devices that its iPod Touch, which isn't even a mobile phone, beats out all mobile phones except the iPhone in terms of volume of Internet access, according to data released by AdMob. The iPod Touch doesn't have a cellular connection, but users can access the Internet via Wi-Fi. It generated 6.7 percent of mobile traffic for AdMob in February. That's less than the 11.2 percent traffic generated from the iPhone, but more than any other mobile phone. Motorola's Razr came in third place, with 2.9 percent of AdMob's traffic.AdMob hosts a mobile advertising network. Each time a mobile user opens a Web page that is part of the network, AdMob records that hit. It serves ...

| iPod shuffle review: where we're going, we don't need clicks |
| 2009-03-30 06:56:00 |
The third-generation iPod shuffle has caused quite a stir thanks to its lack of buttons and the inclusion of a proprietary headphone controller chip. At the same time, Apple fans are loving the even-sleeker music player. Ars takes a look in its latest review to see whether the pros are worth the cons. The third-generation iPod shuffle is here, and not a soul saw it coming. (These days, that's a rarity.) Apple's new buttonless wonder has been making waves and ruffling feathers in the days since its introduction, so we took some time with it to really see whether the hype—and the hate—was warranted. Unlike the 2G shuffle, which came in a variety of color...

| Loving the iPod shuffle |
| 2009-03-28 06:54:00 |
I don’t know if I’ve ever received so many e-mails and phone calls as I did on the morning Apple released the third-generation iPod shuffle. Friends and readers were all wondering what Apple was thinking releasing an iPod with no buttons. While I was surprised with the buttonless iPod, I decided to hold my judgement until I actually used one.Once I had the iPod shuffle in my hands, I had the normal reaction when you see one of Apple’s new products for the first time—wow. It was so small, but it could hold so much music. However, I found the reaction of my family similar to those e-mails I referred to—where are the buttons? I am an avid shuffle user and have been since the day Apple released the very first shuffle. I have always loved the compact size for those times when I’m...

| Apple hit with lawsuit over iPhone as e-book reader |
| 2009-03-26 06:51:00 |
There's some speculation that the Kindle for iPhone app may have sparked the lawsuit.(Credit: CNET) Earlier this month Apple got hit with a lawsuit over an "exploding" iPod Touch. Now it appears to be getting hit with a suit over the exploding e-book market. A couple of blogs, including Apple Insider, are reporting that a Swiss communications firm, Monec Holding, has filed suit in a Virginia district court. Monec accuses the iPhone maker of "patent infringement, unfair trade practices, monopolization, and tortious interference for allegedly treading on its January 2002 patent No. 6,335,678 titled 'Electronic device, preferably an electronic book.'" We've never heard of Monec, but the mission statement on its rather austere Web site claims it's "a leading innovator for mobile, globally u...
