Apple today released iTunes version 9.1 just days before the April 3rd iPad launch. As expected this iTunes release includes full support for the iPad syncing, iBooks and also has some other feature enhancements. Users will be able to organize and sync books downloaded from iBooks on iPad or added to your iTunes library and also sync your computer's music, movies and other media with your tablet device. In the updated iTunes, users will have more control over Genius Mixes, including the ability to rename mixes and rearrange them by dragging. Users will also be able to delete Genius Mixes by right clicking on them. Genius Mixes will also reportedly be available as sources for the iTunes DJ shuffle feature.

Apple today introduced a new feature "Gift This App" on its App Store that enables users to send an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad application to another person as a gift when purchased from iTunes. As shown in the picture, there is a new "Gift This App" option when the "Buy App" dropdown menu is clicked. Read more... On selection of this feature the user is presented with a new screen where he can type in the recipient's name, e-mail address and add a personal message of up to 500 characters. Users are also able to gift an app to multiple recipients at once by adding multiple recipient email addresses. Also on this screen there is option for choosing between sending the gift via email or for printing it for physical delivery. Please note the App's requirement carefully because Apple says "your recipient(s) may not be able to redeem or use your gift if their hardware or iPhone OS is incompatible."

Dual Electronics has announced its first iPod Touch GPS Navigation & Battery Charger car cradle solution. The Dual GPS Cradle allows you to use GPS navigation in and out of the car without any Wi-Fi connection and with no subscription fee. It also doubles up as an iPod Touch Charger as well. It sells for for $199.99 on the Apple store. Read more... With the purchase of this iPod Touch car kit you also get the NavAtlas U.S. & Canada Navigation app that works with the GPS Cradle. The latest US and Canada maps from Navteq are built-in, so there is no need to have your iPod touch Wi-Fi connection ON. You get turn-by-turn, voice-prompted directions, navigation directly to an address stored in Contacts on the iPod, and more. A high-sensitivity GPS receiver is built directly into the Cradle (not the windshield mount), giving you GPS capabilities wherever you go.
Another very good feature with the cradle is that it allows you to play music on your iPod while in navigation mode. The music is automatically muted when directions are being spoken, and the music resumes afterwards. The cradle also features built-in rechargeable battery that can power the GPS unit for 10 hours. You can also use the battery to recharge the iPod touch. The Cradle's battery itself can be charged via your car's cigarette lighter or the USB port on your computer. iPod Touch Car GPS Nav and Charger Cradle Features
