A new website has sprung up called iTunesLP.net , offering tutorials on how to create iTunes LP files for albums that Apple doesn’t offer in the new format, as well as an area offering downloadable iTunes LP files—at the moment, only the Leopold Stokowski with the Philadelphia Orchestra soundtrack to Fantasia is available. On the About page, the team behind the site explains, “At this moment these iTunes LPs are available for a select list of new releases on the iTunes store. However we think it would be nice to have many older, out-of-print, obscure albums or albums on indie-labels to get the same experience; and with that in mind we started working on finding ...

Since it doesn’t work off of a radio frequency, you can control your vehicle from anywhere in U.S., as long as your vehicle is in range of a GSM cellular signal and your phone has ...

Now you can use your iPhone or iPod Touch to kill the environment by firing up your car from afar and leaving the engine to idle whilst either warming or cooling your ride while you wait inside. This alternative to a scarf and gloves comes from Viper in the form of the SmartStart, a module which is wired into your car and lets you lock, unlock and start your car from any distance.
The remote unit isn’t new — Viper has sold the SmartStart for some time. The fancy part this time is the iPhone (or iPod Touch) integration, which comes by way of an iPhone app and a $300 add-on for your SmartStart device (you can opt for the $500 all-in-one if you ...

The Price Is Wrong: 13 Overpriced iPhone Apps
Wired: Gadget Lab —
We love apps on the iPhone. Lurve them. They are capable of keeping track of your budget, translating foreign languages and even delivering ample doses of cow bell. But we can’t give every app out there a ringing endorsement. There are more than a few stinkers that don’t work as promised, are endlessly confusing or are horrifically expensive. The latter group is what we’ve got in our crosshairs today.
These are the top 10 overpriced iPhone apps we’ve encountered. While some are fairly useful (Wolfram Alpha, we’re looking at you) others make about as much sense as a Faberge hackey sack. (A special thanks to ...
