Steve Jobs: Apple & Ipod Wizard (Essential Lives Set 2)
By: Scott Gillam
List Price: $32.79
Amazon Price: $20.67

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
Picture Book?
Having read just about everything that has been written about Steve Jobs I was anxious to get this "new" book and it arrived this week.

Sadly, I'm still trying to figure out if this work was intended for children or some such target audience? The book itself is small and there is a picture on nearly every page. What's missing is the written content. The font size used is huge meaning each page contains about 40-50 words plus a picture. You do the math and figure if this is a good deal.

Save your money on this one. It isn't bad information -- there simply is nothing new here and the format makes me believe that the publisher simply put a 3000 word magazine article into book format.

Amazon Price: $3,500.00

Product Description

This IDC examines the bill of materials of the new Apple iPod Shuffle compressed audio player, with a particular emphasis on the semiconductor components, and analyzes the findings.

"The Apple iPod Shuffle provided some silicon vendor surprises when we did our teardown. Additionally, the design itself shows some significant mixed-signal integration on the core components, but very little integration overall. Despite this, we are impressed at the margins Apple appears to be getting on the product." ? IdaRose Sylvester, senior research analyst, IDC Semiconductors

• Administrative Fail
I started outlining Administrative Law, and ended up with a few questions. I emailed the professor to see when his office hours where. He said, ?Oh come any time. I?m here all of the time.? I go see him after class, and he is blaring music through his Ipod and playing a game on the computer. I knock loudly, several times. He finally jumps when he hears me. (He is from Israel, so you have to imagine this conversation with an accent). Professor: ?Oh, Googie. I have so much to do. I have this paper • Review of the B&W Zeppelin speaker system for Apple?s iPod
So you?ve converted all your music to MP3 and bought yourself an iPod, but the only way to listen to it via your old stereo is with a ghastly cable, or fuzzy FM sender.

My daughter (nearly 4 years old) has grown up with a father who is glued to technology for ridiculous amounts of time each day - be this a desktop, laptop, iPod, mobile phone, digital camera, web camera, or myriad of different software packages and operating systems. Not surprisingly she ha • Amazon Remembers App for Apple iPhone: Unbelievable
