Please review our first Apple application.

Name of the application: BisCal

I am a M.S. accounting student and realized that none of the available Apple app business calculators were any different than the traditional hand-held units found at Office Max or Staples. They offered nothing different. It was just the same tedium from having to press one input then enter over and over.

We designed a business calculator that takes full advantage of the processing power of the Apple iPhone.This is beyond the ordinary business calculator. Why? For starters, we have developed and incorporated accounting spreadsheets. This is every business person’s dream calculator.

Dave wanted his iPod engraved. But he didn’t know what to get engraved. So he asked his friends.

Meet Dave’s new iPod, “The Milky Dane”, and the engraving on its back…

If you thought your iPod touch was expensive, then you might be in for a surprise when you learn about this gold-plated touch!

David Beckham of soccer (or football as it is known in the rest of the world) fame received a golden iPod touch from his teammates after participating in his 100th national club appearance.
Rumor has it that the golden iPod set the squad back £600 ($1,188), which isn’t too shabby considering the £329 ($651) sticker on the regular version.

The iPod is hands down the most popular mp3 on the planet. Now that everyone has an iPod, some people have started to look for ways to make their own stand out from the crowd.

CBS wasn’t content to let Fox take all of the custom iPod action. Rejoice! CBS limited edition, custom engraved iPods with images from some of its programs are here. Hard-core TV geeks can get iPod shuffle, nano, classic, and iPod touch players engraved with licensed artwork from CBS shows. Artwork is available from CSI, CSI Miami, CSI NY, StarTrek, Beverly Hills 90210, Survivor, The Amazing Race, and various sports themes. The iPods are not cheap with prices ranging from $89 for a 1GB shuffle to $499 for a 16GB touch. I will say that the CBS iPods are nowhere near as cool as the Fox ones. The 90210 iPod has to be the strangest. Who would want a iPod player with a show engraved on it that existed before the iPod was even invented?

The Simpsons Shop is now selling a collection  iPods featuring three different custom engravings on the back including a ‘Bart Sk8′ logo, Homer saying D’Oh! and a ‘Homer Tested’ insignia.

The available models include

• iPod Classic in 160 or 80GB sizes
• iPod Nano in 8 or 4GB sizes
• iPod Shuffle in 2 or 1GB sizes
• iPod Touch in 32, 16 or 8GB sizes

Each is limited to 2,000 pieces and is numbered on the back! You can also opt to have your name engraved on the back too, but keep in mind that could probably hinder any attempts to sell the player down the line.

The Simpsons-themed iPods appear to cost a bit more than the regular versions, which makes sense because of the engraving and licensing costs. Best… marketing decision… ever!

Held up to 5,000 songs and featured a black enclosure with a red Click Wheel and custom engraving of the U2 band member’s signatures. Apple also announced that it has “created the online music industry’s first-of-its-kind ‘Digital Box Set.’” The first digital box set, “The Complete U2,” will contained over 400 tracks including all of the band’s albums and over 25 rare and unreleased tracks. U2 fans were able to purchase and download. The Complete U2 set began in Novemeber 2004 for US$149, and U2 iPod customers received a coupon for $50 off the purchase price. The new 20GB iPod U2 Special Edition was available for a suggested retail price of $349.
