'Texas Hold 'Em' for iPod Is a Real Rag
I recently spent around a dozen hours on airplanes and in airports with my family. Before we took off, I stocked my iPod classic with a couple of new games -- The Sims Bowling and Texas Hold 'Em. Texas Hold 'Em is a poker game for iPods of recent vintage. Unfortunately, it's also one of the least enjoyable iPod games I have purchased to date.

iceBar2 from Atlantic is an integrated iPod case and miniature speaker system for all three generations of the iPod nano. However, it's a nano case and speaker system with a nifty twist -- the whole kit and kaboodle is waterproof. The last time I reviewed a waterproof case I was impressed, but in real life I never used it once the review was done, mostly because the waterproof earphones I reviewed with it weren't very good.
