Oxygen Audio’s O’Car looks like a worthy update from my car’s cassette deck. The player has a rotating mount that lets you strap your iPhone to make use of the iPod feature as well as apps streaming radio apps like Last.fm and Pandora. Also nice for using your phone as a GPS system instead of holding it in your hands and crashing into things.

Panasonic announced that they are discontinuing Technics turntables. Looks that even though vinyl sales are up, turntable sales are not.
Panasonic decided to end production mainly due to a decline in demand for these analog products and also the growing difficulty of procuring key analog components necessary to sustain production.
