Work Your iPod Scroll Wheel Even In Snot-Drippingly Cold Weather

by Willy Volk (RSS feed) on May 25th 2007 at 7:56PM

Anybody who uses an iPod in cold weather -- from cross-country skiers, to snowshoe-ers, to reindeer herdsmen -- knows that it's a pain to operate the scroll wheel wearing gloves.

Tävo Products has heard your icy cry in the wind, and they have responded with gloves offering "playpoint technology" -- which is geek-speak for special silicone-textured fingertips that grip the scroll wheel.

Allowing user to easily operate those delicate control wheels, Tävo Gloves can be worn alone or as liners. And for $20, the price is right.
