Four thousand songs. That’s how much music you can put on the new 6th Generation 16 GB Apple iPod Nano. That’s more music than most people listen to in a lifetime and you can have it all right at your fingertips, with the click of a button. The multi-touch iPod nano is smaller than ever and it’s loaded with new feature that make it the best selling player on the market.

Just in time for those New Year’s resolutions, the new nano includes some new features to help you get fit. First, it has a hefty clip so you can wear it while you’re walking, running, working out on the weight machine or even working around the yard. And since you’re going to be getting all this exercise it also includes a pedometer to help you keep track of your progress. You can even connect and upload your data to the Nike+ website to track your progress and results.

Of course, this new 6th Generation 16 GB Apple iPod Nano syncs beautifully with the iTunes store, where you can surf through more than 13 million songs. One click and the tunes are already in your library. You’ll also have access to crystal clear FM radio.

The battery on this nano is built in and it’s a rechargeable lithium ion battery, which means you’ll have up to 24 hours of non-stop play time.

And the newest, best feature of all? The multi-touch display. Just tap once to play. Swipe your finger over the home screen to browse by artist, songs, playlists, composer, genre or album. And while you’re music’s playing you can browse album covers in the bold, high-contrast display. The buttons are gone and all navigation is completely by touch.

The one drawback on this next generation is that Apple has removed video recording and playback capability. But, seriously? Did anyone ever really use it? Maybe once a year you could bear watching a video on that tiny screen but for more robust usage you chose a different type of video player anyway.

With this new nano, Apple has done exactly what a lot of users where screaming for – they’ve made it smaller and easier to use in the gym. With bells and whistles like video gone, and features like the pedometer, the bright, easy-to-read screen and the touch control added, combined with the fact that you can sync up with Nike+ to track your workouts and results, it looks like Apple finally decided to listen to what their users were asking for. It’s impossible to look at this 16 GB Apple iPod and not take it seriously because they’ve taken away everything you don’t need and given you everything you’ve asked for.

The iPod Nano (6th generation) holds 16 gigs, which is enough for about 4,000 songs. On a single charge you get 24  hours of audio playback. The screen has a tiny 1.54 inch (diagonal) color TFT display 240 x 240 pixel resolution.

Its launch has made it the most successful smartphone of all time, but many US customers waiting to get their hands on the iPhone 4S could be in for a long wait. The Wall Street Journal reports that even a month after the Apple device went on the market, the three biggest wireless carriers are finding it hard to keep supply up with demand.

In America, the largest carriers selling the iPhone 4S are Verizon, AT&T and Sprint Nextel. On each of the carriers’ websites, they suggest would be iPhone 4S buyers could have substantial waits before they can have the handset. Verizon’s website says up to three weeks, AT &T says 21 days while Sprint estimates around 14 days.

The reasons for the delay have been the source of much speculation. Some suggest it could be Apple’s manufacturers who have not made enough devices. Others suggest the demand has simply been so high, Apple, and the carriers, have been taken by surprise. AT&T has reported record breaking sales for the device. In its first three days in the shops, the iPhone 4S reached sales figures of 4 million, setting a new record for smartphones. For many of the carriers, worldwide and not just in the US, a successful iPhone 4S campaign is key after slower iPhone sales in the rest of the year, largely due to potential buyers hanging on for the third quarter to buy a new Apple device, at that point rumored to be an iPhone 5.

The impact of a new Apple device coming on the market for retail sales is extensive. Figures in the US show that in October, the month the iPhone 4S launched, retail sales rose 0.5%. There was a 3.7% in electronic sales over the same period. Some predictions have suggested the iPhone 4S could reach up to 27 million sales by the end of 2011, selling the same number of Samsung Galaxy SII devices but in just a third of the time. The predictions show the device has not just been popular in its initial launch, but that enthusiasm and sales continue to build. Carriers would be looking to Apple for more iPhone 4S models as the potential for profits is substantial.

Yet if supply fails to reach demand it could prove a damp squib. AT&T say they are working to get the device to customers within 10 days. The Apple Chief executive, Tim Cook, says the company is working as fast as they can to get the device into the hands of customers as quickly as possible.

Smaller carriers in the US, however, do not appear to have the same problem. For example in the southeast US, the regional carrier C Spire Wireless is reporting no shipping delays for the device.

As the holiday period, and the all-important Black Friday in the US retail market approaches, wireless carriers will hope that they manage to get their iPhone 4S contracts out to customers much more quickly, if they are to ride the wave of popularity for the latest Apple device.

Here’s a look at the Canon Pixma MG 5220 printer. This inket printer is an all in one, which means it not only prints pictures and documents from your computer but also scans and makes copies. Let’s take a look at some of the options in the Canon Pixma MG5220.

Last month, HP decided to liquidate it’s supply of HP Touchpads by drastically lowering their prices. The 16 GB model went from $499.99 down to $99.99. As I’m sure you could imagine, this sparked a frenzy, creating Black Friday in the middle of summer! There were long lines in stores and servers were crashing throughout the mid August madness.

If you were one of the lucky few who managed to snap up an HP Touchpad last month, you might be wondering: should I keep it or should I sell it on eBay? Before you go off and get rid of the thing, let me first list 5 useful things you can do with your HP Touchpad.

E-Reader

Buying a $500 tablet to use solely as an e-reader doesn’t make much sense, but if you only paid one or two hundred bucks for your HP Touchpad, sure go ahead and use it as an e-reader. Keep it by your nightstand and read a book in the dark.

Travel

If you want some inflight entertainment during those long flights then take your HP Touchpad along for the ride. It’s lightweight and you can take it on the plane. You can have some movies on it to watch or you can listen to your tunes. It sure is better than the devices the airlines offer you.

For A Child

This HP Touchpad, unlike the Apple iPad 2, can play Flash games. There are many online sites with flash based games for kids. These games keep kids occupied and can be a great learning experience. Just make sure and get a case for it and a screen protector.

For A Grand Parent

Due to the touchscreen capabilities tablets are easy to use. Get them on Skype and use the front facing camera to do video calls. Show them how to e-mail and do some browsing and get them connected.

Music Player

The HP Touchpad has some great Beats By Dre speakers on it. You can set up the device in any room, load your playlist or cloud music options and listen away.

Other Uses

This tablet has other uses. You can use it for casual browsing, checking email, playing Angry Birds or use it as an RSS reader.
