iPod nano fashion? I was more than excited when Steve Jobs announced the new iPod nano. Not because I am a huge music lover but because of the multitude of different ways that I could use it. This new iPod nano is a tech geek girls fashion dream come true.
Follow along after the break to see just some of the ways I’ve been accessorizing with the new iPod nano, and how well it’s been working out.
This may be more of a dream than a reality. I found that if you use the iPod nano all alone in your hair it is prone to slipping out. If you are going to put it in your hair it is much more secure if you attach it to a hair elastic. It was already slipping out before I even began to walk around. I think if Apple has added a bit of rubber to the edges of the clip it would be much more secure. Steve why did you let me down!
Wearing the iPod nano in your hair is quite cute but lacks the functionality of being able to actually see the new 1.5-inch screen. If you already have a playlist playing and are comfortable using the headset remote buttons to play, pause, and change, its ok but still not ideal. It was quite secure though. You could even go jogging and have them stay in place.
The iPod nano is just screaming to be used as a watch. It is the perfect size and with a multitude of different functions it may be the first in a new smart watch generation. Get real iOS and and App Store onto this bad boy and there’d be no stopping us. For the band I use a tight fitting bracelet which is not too thick. This way the clasp on the iPod Nano is able to fully close. I also really liked attaching the iPod nano to my hair elastic. It was quite secure and comfortable.
Yes the new iPod nano are very capable of being used as earrings. It is easy to use some two part epoxy and attach a loop and then a regular fishhook earring holder. It is a bit heavy for an earring (though I have worn heavier). It would also present the same issue of not being able to easily change your application or music. For the picture I just clipped the nano right onto my ear, this was not the most comfortable of ways to wear it, however, nor was it very secure.
This is one of my favourite ways to wear the iPod nano. It makes a beautiful show piece and is very user friendly. It is also very beautiful and when I go around people just think it is another piece of jewellery. Then I turn it on and everyone is left in awe.
I am sure that I have just covered the tip of the iceburg with some cool new ways to wear your iPod Nano. If you have any other cool new ideas, comment away!

After a saga that's lasted more than a year, it looks like Google Voice-enabled app GV Mobile may finally be approved for the App Store. Following recent announcements that gave developers far more transparency into the actual rules of Apple's App Store approval process, Google Voice developer Sean Kovacs mused on Twitter, "Since GV Mobile complies with all 110+ guidelines newly posted by Apple, it should get approved."Google Voice may finally be approved for the App Store originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) on Fri, 10 Sep 2010 13:00:00 EST.

iPhone is being tested at JP Morgan and other large enterprises as an alternative to RIM’s BlackBerry, Bloomberg reports. They have 220,000 employees. UBS AG with 63,000 employees is doing likewise and Standard Chartered Bank will have 15,000 iPhones distributed by end of year.
Cost savings and employee preference were the two biggest factors cited by companies for the shift in the Sanford Bernstein survey. Employees would rather own an iPhone and are increasingly willing to buy the device themselves, which helps cuts costs as companies look to rein in spending, said Sanford Bernstein’s Ferragu.
Wells Fargo previously switched to iPhone and iPad. Enterprise is a momentum game and it looks like that momentum is changing.

With the news that Apple has eased restrictions on third-party development tools, a very excited-sounding Adobe has announced it will resume working on its Flash-to-iPhone compiler, Packager for iPhone.
Soon after the news leaked in April that Apple was restricting third-party tools, a very publicly angry Adobe announced that its fledgling Packager app, part of Flash Professional CS5, wouldn't be receiving future support after Apple's restrictions effectively rendered the program useless.
Times have certainly changed now. "We're hearing from our developer community that Packager apps are already being approved for the App Store," Adobe says. Support for Adobe's Flash Player plug-in, however, is still excluded from iOS.
Adobe has every reason to be excited about this, as do Flash developers, who will now have a relatively easy way to recompile their Flash apps for sale on the App Store. Whether that will also translate into high-quality apps is something we users will learn for ourselves as they show up on the App Store over the coming days and weeks.

With iOS 4.1 came Game Center and most of you are already participating so why not gain more friends by visiting the Official TiPb GAME CENTER ID Tracker. If you’d like to add me, feel free to find me under the name J Sikora. (Shameless plug)
Speaking of Game Center, what games are you playing?
A lot of you are patiently waiting for Apple to finally release the white iPhone 4. This is the place to speculate when, if at all, this mythical white device will be released.
You’ve been toying around with iOS 4.1 for a good while now, find any bugs or issues you’d like to share?
See you in the forums!

GV Mobile developer, Sean Kovacs, had some good news to share on Twitter saying that his unofficial Google Voice application GV Mobile should now be allowed into the App Store. Since GV Mobile does not violate any of the new rules regarding the app review guidelines that Apple has laid out for developers, Kovacs figured why not resubmit his application and try to finally get it back where it belongs.
GV Mobile made it’s first appearance into the App Store back in July of 2009 and was later yanked by Apple due to allegedly duplicating the iPhone’s calling and text messaging features. Later it was rumored that Apple laid blame on AT&T was for the removal of the application.

My iPhone 4 is getting pretty much the same 3G HSPA speed under iOS 4.1 as it was under 4.0.x, how about you? There was nothing overtly mention in iOS 4.1 that should have changed things, but you never know what gets tuned under the covers, never mind what your carrier is up to in your region.
One of our readers, Paul, swears his speed has tanked by a factor of 10 since the update.
So break out your favorite measuring tool (I used the SpeedTest.net app) and let us know where you are and what your speeds are like.
