Speculation is mounting that the upcoming release of Apple’s iPhone 4G might cause another shortage of flash memory in the market. With Apple expected to ship a good 40 million iPhones that year, which is a significant increase from 25 million a year back, there does look like there could be a shortage. To compose matters worse, Apple is expected to ship about 7-8 million iPads that year too, which will put another dent in the amount of supplies. Apple is already commonly regarded as the loner largest consumer of flash memory in the world, since it uses built-in memory in its devices such as the iPhone, iPad and iPods while other manufacturers rely on removable cards.

Strange to know that the MiLi iPhone Projector (which plays nice with newer iPods and the iPhone, so don’t be fooled by the name) is a UK-only device, where it goes for £229 each. Why can’t they just ship it by across the Atlantic for those who want one, we wonder? Anyways, we digress – that device does as it says, throwing up to a 70″ image on a suitable viewing surface of any video or image slideshow that you are currently going through, boasting a battery life of 1.5 hours alongside the ability for it to hook up to other external video devices (as enlarged as they’re compatible, that is). It has a fully adjustable focus and is additionally equipped with its own stand. Any takers?

V-MODA’s latest Remote Remix in-ear headphones was specially designed to see action with the iPhone 3GS, more recent iPods and MacBooks. You will find that it comes with a microphone for you to invent hands-free calls, while a three button in-line control for music playback and VoiceOver or Voice Control functions is easily accessible regardless of what you’re doing at the moment. While it targets the Apple user group primarily, that doesn’t mean the Remote Remix cannot be used with other devices that come with a 3.5mm audio jack, albeit you will lose some Apple-only functionality. Interested parties can pick up the V-MODA Remote Remix in-ear headphones for $100 when it arrives later next month.

Just like the iPhone in all its iterations as well as the family of iPods, it is fitting that the iPad gets a dock of its own – although you can tell that such a dock would definitely be relatively much larger in size. that keyboard dock boasts a full-size mechanical keyboard that slides in the iPad in portrait mode, where it comes with a carrying case similar to that of the Amazon Kindle while featuring a stand. Guess that more or less answers our question on who would use the iPad as a work device with plenty of typing to be done. No word on mouse support, as that might be contrary to the way the entire interface was designed. Expect to see future iterations with built-in speakers, subwoofers and perhaps a webcam.
