Amp Pack for iPod

Anonymous Coward writes "iPodlounge is reporting that Burton/Apple will soon be introducing an Amp Pack backpack featuring the very cool SoftSwitch Technology to control your iPod via internal cabling. Like the Amp Jacket introduced at Macworld SF 2003, there is a pocket for iPod and it's controlled using a built in remote control. Here's the kicker, it will cost $200! Yikes."

    ...those things that allow you to broadcast iPod output on an FM frequency... bring back bad memories of CD/cassette adapters with wires all over the place...
    I currently use one of those lousy cassette adapters. All the FM adapters are just as annoying and wiry, except for the iTrip made by Griffin Technology.

    It's the first FM transmitter device that looks well-suited to the iPod -- so far I've only seen its pictures in magazines and haven't seen one at a local Apple Store or in online stores yet.
