What started out as British Invasion inspired cover band, the Redwalls are progressing with a fusion of soulful 60’s influences and garage rock energy. Although they peg R&B legends The Temptations as influences along with the Beatles, the Redwalls strive to mesh their own individuality within the classics.
Apple Computer today introduced the iTunes Phone, a music-playing phone that Apple CEO Steve Jobs is comparing to the company’s popular iPod shuffle music player. Jobs made the announcement today (Sept. 7) at a press event in San Francisco.
The phone comes loaded with iTunes software and can hold about 100 songs as well as podcasts. Users can transfer songs form their PC or Macintosh computers via a USB cable. The phone stops playing music when a call is received.
“It’s an iPod shuffle right on your phone,” said Jobs, who noted that both the iPhone and iPod shuffle both randomly sort music, hold about the same songs and have display screens.
Jobs also introduced a pencil-thin iPod, the company’s ubiquitous digital music device. The iPod Nano will replace the iPod Mini. It is one-third the size of the Mini and holds 1,000 songs.
A 4-gigabyte Nano will retail for $249, and a 2-gigabyte model will sell for $199. Both versions will be available in stores this weekend, Jobs said.
