- evilhecubus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hey, it has iPod in the title!
Digg it, quick!! - Trepan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What about AM? Nobody ever remembers about AM.
- onager, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Why would Apple make an FM receiver standard? I mean who would want an ipod that was bulkier, had less battery life, and was more complicated to use? I can tell you who: the people that will run out and buy this Griffin product. The rest of the world, however, bought ipods because they DIDN'T want to listen to the radio anymore!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wrong story GTAcrimelord.
Anyways, does anyone know if the FM recording will be limited to a 8khz sample rate like voice recording is? - ajb2015, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i wish apple would make these standard features like other players.
- Porchman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The fact that the ipod didn't have an FM tuner is pretty much the only reason why i didn't get one. Those of us that actually have a decent radio station to listen to think it's a good idea. And who says the ipod would become bulkier? Nearly all mp3 players with tuners on the market are no larger than the ipod and still have equal capacity. I don't know about battery life but mine goes on the charger every night even if i don't use it.
- fuelvolts, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I cant wait for iSIRIUS to come out - now that would kick ass!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i thought podxilla already did this. you just had to hook a 3G up to any audio source. such as vinly FM or even ANOTHER IPOD
- MacMan88, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0are you kidding me?
FM radio SUCKS. i dont tune into a radio station to hear commercials all the 15 minutes it takes to drive me from work to home, i tune in to hear MUSIC!
which is why i bought a satellite radio.
hey griffin tech...can you guys make an iSirius or an iMsirius? - SupaDawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i hope this works via USB... i'd love to write a homebrew app for my psp to take advantage of such a device.
- timeshifter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It won't be available for two more years! Griffin makes some cool products, but they're worse than Microsoft when it comes to release dates. Anyone remember the RadioShark?
Ditto on the "don't forget about AM". - MrCalifornia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dup: http://www.digg.com/hardware/iFM
- nutcase, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it's not cordless? now the ipod weighs like 25 lbs with all the crap you can get for it. And, like the guys said before me, why no AM?
- GTAcrimelord, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Yep, the two mix surprisingly well, but from what I can remember, this song has been playing on the radio since May 2005.
