Extend the iPod’s Capabilities with Advice in New eBook
Ithaca, NY USA (April 30, 2007) — Much has happened in the iPod world of late, and for anyone who wants to use an iPod for more than just playing music, Take Control Books has published the second edition of “Take Control of Your iPod: Beyond the Music,” by gadget-wizard Steve Sande. Almost completely rewritten, the 134-page book covers the latest in iPod technology, explains the basics for new users, and helps everyone find more practical (and fun) uses for their iPods. Sande does cover the basics of iPod use, such as charging, moving music to an iPod, and troubleshooting, but he also examines a dozen other major iPod uses, ranging from reading email and RSS feeds to running Keynote and PowerPoint presentations. The ebook may be purchased for $10 from [URL]http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/ipod-btm.html[/URL].
“Take Control of Your iPod: Beyond the Music” leads with colorful comparison charts of the various iPod models to help readers figure out which of the many iPod models they own, since many iPod uses work only on certain models. After a brief look at charging, syncing, and troubleshooting, the book jumps into the many things you can do with an iPod, including obvious uses like listening to podcasts, watching video downloaded from the Internet, and exercising with the Nike+iPod Sport Kit. But the real fun comes in putting an iPod to less obvious uses like recording lectures or podcast interviews, reading text-based electronic books, and displaying maps.
