I have the feeling that I have finally discovered an application which you might actually be able to use for something except for filling up that 8GB or 16GB memory of that iPhone or iPod touch of yours. With the Weather Channel Mobile application you wont have to go to Yahoo!Weather to find out how the weather will be on your vacation. You can check the weather whenever you like. This will make your life easier if your job takes you outdoor a lot. Some of the best features include the Fully Customizable Maps which allow you to decide which weather layers to display (clouds, snow, rain, tornados) as well as landmarks (houses, parks, museums, cities) and the Video Forecast which allows you to watch national and international video predictions thanks to The Weather Channel on-air meteorologists.

I’m not that into weather but The Weather Channel Mobile is totally free so you can install it anytime you want. Start!

On top of the Howcast app launched today, Llamagraphics also came up with Life Balance which is an application dedicated multi-tasking professionals. The software costs $20 and is currently sitting at the iPhone App Store waiting to be downloaded. Obviously it also works with iPod touch.

How can Life Balance help iPhone users? By providing a few benefits and productivity functions, such as getting organized by dividing tasks, prioritizing work so you can calculate where to spend your time wisely, and getting real time feedback by using to do lists.

Catherine E White of Llamagraphics, comments:

For many people, conventional time management systems just result in a vicious cycle of procrastination, guilt and tension rather than in stress reduction, efficiency and happiness. Once you begin using Life Balance to get your daily routines under control, you experience a different way to approach the whole process of making positive life changes.

Taking in consideration that iPod is the number one in the mp3/portable media player market, midbuds decided to create stylish ear buds that are specifically made for the Apple product.

Unlike other ear buds that cost a lot of money, these ones are cheap and have a price tag of $5. The most important aspect isn’t the performance or functionality, but the designs and different styles, which in the end provide a way for iPod owners to express themselves.

In total there are 36 different ear buds, in series of 12, like Yellow Lightining, Blue Lightining, Stars, Pixel Rainbow, Dots, Small Skull, and more.

It appears Belkin is working on a JoyPad controller which would be available through the App Store when it’s ready. There’s no price or availability and I am not sure if this project will see the light of day.

There are no details on how such a JoyPad will work. It looks similar to the iControlPad we’ve seen in the past. Does the iPhone or iPod touch fit inside? What about the controls on the right? Is the screen going to shrink to allow virtual buttons on the right? Who would want that? After all whenever we’re playing games we want to take full advantage of a bigger screen.
We’ll have to wait and see if this information checks out or not.

After Kevin Rose’s details about upcoming Apple products a rumored started to circulate across the web. Apple might just be preparing for a September event. Scheduled for September 9th, the rumored event will bring new iPods to the scene. We’re waiting for a new iPod touch and more importantly a new nano.

No word on new MacBooks yet and people are guessing this will be an iPod only event. I don’t know about you but I’d be more interested in Apple’s new laptops than in their redesigned MP3 players.
