Another cool iPod nano watch band

A few weeks ago I posted a link to a cool new idea. The idea was to take the iPod Nano 6G and turn it into a wrist watch. Well it looks like there's gonna be more options.

A company called Hex has come out with their version of a wristband to turn your Nano into a wrist watch. You can check it out here. They're made form a high grade silicon and cost just under $25 bucks. They come in a bunch of great colors as well.

I love this idea! I mean, why would you want any other watch than one that plays music? It's a great idea to get just that much more use out of your Nano.

White iPhone 4 shows up in app

So people that have been waiting for the white iPhone 4 have gotten a little tease today. When you download the latest Apple store app the white iPhone 4 shows up when you go to the order page.

The only problem is that it still isn't available to order yet. The white iPhone shows up when you go to the order page. But when you click on the link to order it you get the message telling you they aren't available. :(

This is still a good sign though. It leads one to believe that the white iPhone 4 will be available sooner rather than later.

If you still haven't gotten the iPhone 4 but you'd like to get one here's your chance. Click here for a chance to win an iPhone 4.

iPod nano has big markup

The iPod nano 6G is quite possibly Apples tiniest product. However that's about the only thing tiny about it, especially when it comes to the markup in price.

Estimates of the cost to manufacture the iPod nano 6G has been rumored around $45 dollars for the 8GB model. Which means at a $149 retail price, the unit is seeing roughly a 300% markup in price. No wonder Apple makes money hand over fist.

People are much more aware of cost on products these day and a 300% markup would make it tough for anyone to come to terms with at the check out. But when it comes to Apple people seem to put any kind of reasoning aside and see the glitz and glamor of their products.

I admit I'm the same way. Apple has a strong allure to me and I love their products. But a 300% markup does seem a little extreme. Anyways, I've got to cut this post short, I've got an 8GB nano on hold at Wal Mart I've got to go pick up.

Verizon, white iPhone rumors still floating around

Lots of people are awaiting the arrival of the white iPhone 4. Not only are they waiting for the white one to be released, but many people are hoping Verizon finally becomes a carrier as well. The rumors of this won't die, especially since Apple hasn't confirmed nor denied any reports.

It could be a good thing if Verizon and iPhone team up because it would give people another option. AT&T has been the only way to go. But options and competition are always a good thing. No confirmation yet as to the actual Verizon/iPhone hookup, but it seems like it's all but a done deal. Usually when someone doesn't deny rumors there's a good chance of the rumor becoming reality.

Still don't have an iPhone 4 yet? Well here's your chance to get one. Click here for your chance to win an iPhone 4.
