Many times you must be wondering about the meaning of names of the everyday gadgets. Like for example, have you ever thought what the ‘i’ stands for in iPod and DSi. A quick search in google will let you know that in case of Apple’s iMac brand, the ‘i’ originally stood for internet. However, an Apple rep said that the i in iPod was just a brand name and not an acronym.

It was guessed that the ‘i’ in DSi stood for ‘interactive’. But a Nintendo rep said that the ‘i’ in DSi means two things: the ‘i’ is symbolic of the subject “I” and its personal aspect. Also, the addition of two cameras gives the system its own “eye” on things.

Pictures that claim to be the casing of Apple’s next generation iPhone have been seen recently. Rumors have been sparked stating that the new upcoming iPhone will not have the glossy appearance like the present iPhones. Rather, they will have a matte black appearance. The images are still not officially confirmed but both iPodObserver and MacRumors have posted photos of the expected unreleased 16-GB iPhone with Model No. A1303. This has not appeared on the previous models of the iPhones. The case is said to be designed for better gripping.

There are not much details of the new iPhone except that a new case-back made of metal will be introduced. Rumors of a new iPhone has been circulating since that time when Apple’s iPhone 2.2.1firmware update for the iPhone and iPod Touch hinted that a new device might be coming soon.

The internet company Jajah has facilitated some features which can convert an iPod into an iPhone. Jajah competes with the other low-cost internet applications such as Skype and announced recently that it has come up with a new application that will allow iPod Touch users to call and text messages. This application can be used by using a Voice over IP network instead of a carrier’s cellular network.

One only needs a microphone headset and a Wi-Fi connection to start making calls using the Jajah’s application in the latest version of the iPod Touch. The Jajah service can reduce the calling costs up to 98 percent but the fact still remains that it needs a Wi-Fi network whereas the iPhone operates over a traditional network. So, it is quite unlikely that the iPod can steal away iPhone’s business.

It’s not an unusual sight on the slopes and streets during winter months: someone taking off a glove, fishing out an iPod from the depths of warm clothing and selecting a new album or skipping a tune. From helmets ready with headphones to ski jackets with touch controls on the sleeve, there are ways to keep hands covered while doing simple iPod navigation tasks in the cold.

Perhaps the simplest of these devices is Kombi’s I-Rip gloves. The iPod can be carried safe in a clothing pocket or backpack. The system works even when there up to 30 feet between the glove and iPod. Some made for iPod products carry out their iPod duties well, but then fail to deliver on their basic use. That’s not the case with these gloves. Featuring down-like lagging and a waterproof insert along with a wicking ’no stink’ lining -- these mid-length gauntlet gloves keep the hands warm and dry.

You may think that the hype surrounding the Apple iPhone started in January of 2007, but that's not true. It had started many years ago, perhaps before generating such a device was even a twinkle in Steve Jobs' eye. After so many years of rumors about the mythical iPhone, so many fake mockups, so many fake names, and a brief experiment with the now-failed Motorola ROKR, Apple finally went ahead and launched the device that Apple fans have been longing since the beginning of time or at least since Steve Jobs returned to Apple in 1997 and killed off the Newton.

Steve Jobs recently declared during an internal company meeting that he believes all phones will, some day, work the same way as the iPhone and that those who worked at Apple during the iPhone launch will be able to tell their grandchildren about it. It appears as if Jobs truly believes in this product as a long-term innovative device, even if he does acknowledge that it does come with various flaws at present.
