Mix: Subaru, Nokia, iFlash, Harrington
Subaru has announced that select models of its 2008 Impreza will offer iPod integration as an accessory. The integration kit allows customers to control most iPod functions through the dashboard “head unit”, including playback control and text display of playlist, artist, album and song information.
Nokia has launched a new advertising campaign that features the slogans “Phones should be open to anything.” and “The best devices have no limits.”, both direct shots at Apple’s closed-system iPhone.
An industrious iPhone owner has made a “flash” for the iPhone from LEDs and a broken iPod car charger. The flash, while not synced with the iPhone’s camera application, does draw its power from the device’s Dock Connector. [via TUAW]
Jeweler John Harrington is offering a “Diamond Shuffle”, a second-generation iPod shuffle customized with Harrington’s “Renaissance” design and set with five diamonds. It sells for £300, or roughly $610.
