The good folks at Skunk Studios have outdone themselves with a no-holds-barred upgrade on a pretty spiffy original game. QBeez2 adds sharkz, brushz, clownz, magic and other twistz to a game that absorbed a great deal of casual Mac gamers' time the first time around.

I think so

There are countless ways you can get external audio out of your iPod. I won't go into them all here. Instead, I'm just going to take a look at the external speaker option, and Harman Multimedia products in particular. Why Harman? Because that's where I chose to start. Keep in mind that this isn't a review. I'm not evaluating these products, I just think they look like good options, and I want to let you know they're out there.

In the interest of full disclosure, we sell all of the 5G iPod cases covered below through our Think Different Store. Before you cry bias, however, there are a couple things you should consider. First, iPod cases sell quite well regardless—and sometimes in spite of—my reviews. Second, if you've read any of my iPod case reviews (including this one, as you'll see), you'll know I'm not afraid to give bad ratings to crappy products. Third, even if I decide to be biased, that's okay. The Super Bowl XL referees taught me that.

Well, here we go. The 5G iPod (or iPod with Video, to the unenlightened) has been out for some time now, and the iPod case manufacturers are starting to catch up. There's now quite a bit from which to choose, but none of the units I've reviewed are all that great. I don't know...maybe it's just me. I'd like to think I'm possibly burnt out on reviewing the same old cases retooled for a different iPod, but some of these have fundamental flaws that extend past their lack of inspiration. Case in point are these offerings from Speck Products, but the problem extends to other designers, too.

This time, the incremental "Delta" updater, if you already have version 10.4.4 installed, is a modest 16 MB, but the Combo updater for upgrading earlier versions of Tiger is a whopping 125 MB.
