At iFA 2006 in Berlin this past week, Zenocom introduced their new product called BluPod. The BluPod is an iPod dongle that connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to your cellphone – and displays call information on your iPod’s screen. The device can be used as a remote control for your iPod and can even pick up FM radio signals. So how do you know if you get a call? The BluPod actually controls your iPod’s volume, turning it down when a call is received. Logically, I think I would prefer it forcing my iPod to pause so I don’t miss anything on my favorite podcasts. Two last points: 1) Doesn’t it look strikingly similar to Apple’s very own Radio Remote? 2) When Apple finds out about this company, their lawyers are going to sick ‘em with a name like that.
