I’m a big fan of Pandora, a free web service that creates streaming, personalized radio stations based on songs or artists you like. Maybe you can listen to it on your new ChicBuds that you can win on our website???? If you haven’t used the service before, basically you type in a song or artist, and it will populate an ongoing playlist with songs that have similar musical qualities. If you don’t like a song, tell the station and they’ll adjust your tunes accordingly.

Now can discuss and debate your favorite music with other listeners on Pandora’s Energizer Forum, check it out!

Like previous e-book readers, the Amazon Kindle relies on an easy-to-read E Ink display that needs no backlight and draws power only when loading a new page. (It can handle thousands of pages between charges.) The Kindle’s key innovation—the one that blazes the way for digital paper products—is its inclusion of a high-speed EVDO antenna and a deal with Sprint that allow users to download books quickly, from nearly anywhere.

The Mophie Juice Pack for iPhone 3G will give your iPhone more than double the battery life that it has on its own. That pumps up the specs to 250 hours standby time, 6 hours talk time (or 12 hours if on EDGE), 28 hours audio playback, and 8 hours video playback.  The current retail cost is $99.95

Some additional features:
- Battery and Case in One:  You can use it as a case all the time or just when your iPhone needs an extra boost.

- Intelligent Power Distribution:  Smart Battery Technology instructs the iPhone to always drain out the Juice Pack first. When you’re done with Juice Pack, simply detach it and you still have a fully charged iPhone.
