iPod Nano 5th Generation (16GB) Audio Player

The fifth-gen iPod Nano is almost impossibly slim, but somehow the wizards at Apple managed to pack in a video camera. Though you'll find a few other new features in the fifth-generation Nano, the video camera is the marquee addition. Considering how much space your home-video clips might take up, it's unfortunate that Apple didn't boost the Nano's storage capacity this generation.

Revisiting iPod mounting issues

A colleague called this morning to pick my brain about his mother's 2G iPod nano. The gist of that pick was that this particular generation of iPod nano refused to mount on her Mac--every other generation of iPod thrown at the machine worked perfectly well.

Where Google Chrome security fails: the password
I heard mention that the Chrome OS will have some sort of encryption available a la bitlocker. If it's possible to encrypt personal data using another password or key, then it may have potential for very secure data....
