Is Apple planning to add a camera to the next-gen iPod nano? According to the images shared by Apple.pro, they might be.

Are you looking to go places but you don’t want to spend for gas or arrive as a wheezing, sweaty mess? Check out what Boxx Corporation just put out. Called the Boxx, this unique box-on-two-wheels is basically an electric bike – or something that we all could be using for personal transportation in a few years if gas prices continue to go up. We say “personal” because it’s a bit too small to fit your date in, since the Boxx is only a meter long; just enough for (ideally) fitting one rider. Despite the size limitations, the 120-pound Boxx is still a pretty capable man-hauler, with a build that’s listed capable of taking 300 pounds of weight for a ride.
Nike+ has just introduced the FuelBand, a new iOS-connected product that’s described to help people who want to be “more active.” To do that, the wristband measures and displays four different metrics: time, calories, steps and NikeFuel. NikeFuel is basically technology that measures movement through the wrist that gets boiled down to a measurable number.
If the rumors are true, then we’re about a month away from an official introduction and about a couple of months away from an iPad 3 launch day. Of course, that means we’re about to get the usual rotation of accessories from China, usually cases that may or may not match the final product. Right on cue, some new cases just popped up from accessory maker Chinee, showing designs that match rumored descriptions of the iPad 3, but labeled as the Hypercover for the “iPad 2S”.
Nissan (yes, the car company) has announced that they’ll be entering the mobile accessory business with a new protective case specifically designed for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. Called the Scratch Shield case, the simple shell is made of ABS plastic and molded to fit the iPhone perfectly. While it looks simple enough (you’ve seen plastic iPhone cases before, right?), the Scratch Shield comes with a unique feature that allows it to “heal” itself to get rid of fine scratches.
