The German custom car shop Mattes Interieurtechnik has gotten about as close as I think we’ll see with their recently upgraded Mercedes CLS. The incredibly soft-looking and heavenly bright interior has many nice appointments, but what really sets this custom job apart […]
The mTune-N is a very well designed and good sounding set of headphones that, when combined with an iPod nano, allows for a wireless freedom that has to be experienced to be appreciated. The addition of a standard headphone jack makes it more versatile than Macally’s other nano-specific accessories, and the light weight makes it a pleasure to use during outdoor activity. There are better sounding headphones out there for the money, but none that come close to offering the mTune-N’s features. If you are a nano user with an active lifestlye, you owe it to yourself to give the mTune-N a test drive.
Rating: 8 out of 10
Price: $49.99
Pros: Wireless nano integration, lightweight, comfortable padded earcups, extra mini jack allows for use with other devices.

the IP-N111’s surprisingly good sound quality and small size combine to make it a good choice for nano owners who are looking for a lightweight and compact portable speaker system. The audio quality is very good considering how small it is, and the unit has a very solid feel to it. While this is not the speaker system you would bust out when throwing a party, it is ideal for listening in a quiet hotel or dorm room, and is small enough to take anywhere.
Cost: $39.99
Rating: 7.0 out of 10
Pros: Sounds great given its size, looks cool, solidly built, batteries last over 10 hours.
Cons: No external audio input, sound distorts a bit at higher volumes
