0 iPod earbuds or headphones can give you electric shock

That's right! You read is correctly. Apple has made this revelation in a new support page posted on its website. According to Apple, when using headphones in areas where the air is very dry, it is easy to build up static electricity and possible for your ear to receive a small electrostatic discharge (in other words shock) from the headphones while listening to iPod or iPhone. Ouch! shock to the ear...Not sure how painful that could be because I haven't experienced it yet. Have you?
Show me more...
This according to apple does not mean that there is an issue with the ipod, iphone or the earbuds. When the iPod (touch) or the iPhone rubs against various surfaces during its usage the charge builds up on the device that the earbuds are connected to and then this electric charge discharges through the earbuds when you put them in your ears.

Apple also suggests tips to try and reduce the build-up of static electricity like keeping the device out of the wind, not rubbing it against certain materials, using anti-static hand lotion, and using a humidifier to raise the moisture content of the air—for users.

The orange pegs need to be cleared from 55 fanciful levels as 10 whimsical teachers guide you toward Peggle greatness. Players can wield mystifying Magic Powers, rack up huge bonus points and make shots.


Among the standard blue and orange pegs are purple and green "magic" pegs which activate the level's current "magic" power, such as generating a second ball, extending the length of the ball catcher, and showing the deflection path of the next few balls.

In addition, the game offers a iPhone and iPod touch-exclusive zoom mode, on-screen controls, and new types of style shots. The game also features touch aiming wherein you touch a target point on the screen and then use the sliding aiming wheel at the side of the screen for finer control. Peggle for the iPhone and iPod touch is available now from the App Store and sells for $5.
