I think it’s safe to say that the time of real portable music listening has truly hit us. Just take a look around you next time your utilising public transport (those of you with the cash to make your own ways of travel, give it a go just to see what your missing!), and I can guarantee that you’ll spy at least half a dozen people with a pair of earphones stuck into their heads. Usually, of course, with the delightful white cord outside their jackets, so they can show off the fact they possess an iPod to the world.

But here come Olympus making there way into the world of the tiny MP3 player with the m:robe MR-100. A 5GB MP3 and WMA player.

We’re always on the lookout for ‘bang for our buck’. Most of us are more than willing to shop around for the lowest price (something made inherently easy with internet based shopping, and various websites which offer up the cheapest price incredibly quickly), and the all-important bargain. Yet in many circles, the general public seem all too ready to stick with what they know about or have heard of, despite the advice of the more educated. To your average Joe Public, the only way to play all your music on the move without lugging CDs about with you is to get them all on one of those little iPod thingies.

As good as Apple’s iPod range is, I think most of us technically savvy types are well aware that when it comes to pure value for money, they have been lagging behind their competitors in the last year. Creative in particular have introduced the better 20GB MP3 player model in the form of the Zen Touch and Zen Sleek, and now want to push for a piece of the action when it comes to those who don’t require that amount of storage. So here is the Creative Labs Zen Nano Plus 512MB (also available in a 1GB version) which looks set to take on the iPod Shuffle.

Apple  could be launching a new iPod touch 4 in the next month or so. The reason for this belief is that a photo illustration of an iPod touch 4 in a case has been revealed that indicates a new version with a camera is coming.

What happens here is that Apple send out technical specs (as in CAD details) to those companies who will be making cases. The drawings don’t show the device in details other than sizes of each part. With this information it appears that a company has created a mockup of what a case and iPod touch within that case will look like.

It’s hard to make out exactly what’s happening in the render, but it appears that “if” the iPod represents a new device then it will keep the curved back rather than a glass back of the iPhone 4. We also see the addition of a camera and possibly a flash also which is one of the wanted features on the device.

We’ll have to see how this one goes, but we shouldn’t need to wait too long as some people are indicating a September announcement or even launch could happen for the next gen iPod touch 4.

The Clear iSpot is a mobile 4G hotspot designed to allow smartphones and tablets to connect to the internet at 4G speeds.
The device is designed for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and when those devices connect over a WiFi connection, they are then capable of accessing the internet at 4G speeds rather than the 3G speeds that currently can restrict them.
The iSpot is capable of allowing up to eight wireless devices to connect up to it and has been optimised for Apple  products. We are not sure what that exactly means, but we assume any WiFi device with a fast enough connection will be able to get the same benefits from it.
The device is powered by battery and charged by a USB connection.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab was unveiled a few days ago. When previewed, it had a 7 inch screen putting it in-between the Dell Streak and Apple iPad in terms of screen size.
We now hear that Samsung will launch two other tablet devices also which will include an 8 and 10 inch version.
It is expected that Samsung will be pricing the new tablet computers aggressively to get them in the market to tackle the popular iPad from Apple.
The Samsung Tablets will first be launched in their home network market on SK Telecom. If popular then I am sure an international launch will follow perhaps early next year.
