Mix: 2G iPod dock, Grammys, Jobs, Rock Hall of Fame
iLounger Wesley Vasher has built an excellent dock for his second-generation iPod out of hard wood and aluminum.
Organizers of the upcoming Grammy Awards are reportedly letting voting members hear nominated songs for free through Apple’s iTunes Music Store.
CBS Marketwatch says the growth of the iPod remains the crowning achievement of Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ business strategy since he returned to the company in 1997.
iPod and iTunes spokesband U2 are among five musical legends to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame during the foundation’s 20th annual induction ceremony next year.

The 2G dock looks great, but isn’t one of the points of the dock to make it easier to see and read the screen?

croooow; it is only posible so connect it from the top, there is no connection at the bottom, that is why it turns upside down, I think

that’s very stylish, although I wonder why he didn’t design it so that you slid the iPod up and under the cover, so that the iPod set upright.
