Having a ceiling fan that doubles as speakers doesnt sound like a great idea (no puns intended). Just keeping the ceiling fan on when the TV is on as well lets you know just how much disruption in sound and clarity the fan is responsible for. So one can only wonder how these fans are going to sound.

Sony, the company that started the craze of music on the move looks all set to take back its lost territory from Apple. The Walkman brand name which was passed over to the SonyEricsson cell phone hand, has been taken back by Sony with a vengeance. Now this is what can seriously offer some competition to Apple and the iPod.

If Sony was serious about making a bang on the music scene with their superbly designed touchscreen Walkman, Samsung wasnt one to watch the tides turn against its favor. With their latest PMP which even has the coolest haptic technology, Samsung are just spoiling for the fight. As for the iPod, for Apples sakes, lets hope they began redesigning it long back. The iTunes propoganda wont last for long.

Few of us (including me) have ever heard of Zirconia. A quick look at Google reveals that Panasonics claims about this material having less resonance than plastic or aluminum are true. This basically means that unlike other headphones that use such material, using Zirconia results in a purer , clear sound.

The good thing about technology is that its a great leveller. You may not have the dough to buy the latest sound system from Sony which promises to have Nicole Kidman whispering your ears as she rides across Australia , but that doesnt mean that you have to make do with that ancient stereo tech either.

If you have been in the market for the perfect home system to complement your Apple iPod, then your search definitely ends here. Coming from none other than industry leader Sony is the Muteki (pronounced moo-techy) a complete line of audio systems. The new systems offer an unbeatable combination of powerful sound and features that make them ideal for celebrations calling for a DJ, Karaoke and dancing with optional disco lighting.

Taking their cue from the color loving chameleons in nature, these speakers keep evolving from one color to another. The concept sounds good, not unique, but good all the same, but what beats me is why they had to go and design the whole thing like a ladies handbag. Even worse it looks like the shape has been inspired by a females bust.

As the owner of the largest online music store, Apple has a lot of power when it comes to downloading music online. One of the most common grouses of customers irritated by the use of DRM by companies such as Microsoft and Apple was that not only did DRM restrict the owners after having paid the full price , they often had to pay again if they lost the device onto which the song had been downloaded.
