iPhone speaker too low? Stab it with some needles

iPhone Speakers

Are you annoyed with the volume of the iPhone’s speaker? Is it too low for you? Do you constantly miss it when you are in a noisy place? Well, if you are feeling especially mod-dy today, you can stick some needles in the speakers of your iPhone. I know you may not feel like sticking any sort of sharp pointy thing into your $400 phone, but many users are reporting that after poking their speakers with needles, their iPhone speaker volume will increase 40%. Some users find it so loud, that they can’t even keep their iPhones on full blast any more. If you are really in the mood to void your warranty, then just grab your iPhone and your sewing kit.

iPod with automatic volume control to be launched

by Alec Feld on Dec 28, 2007 at 02:47 PM

iPod You’re going deaf. That’s what the Daily Mail thinks, at least. The paper says that because iPod users are going deaf due to the extensive volume control on the iPod, Apple is implementing a new, automatic volume control. The patent reveals that soon-to-come iPods may automatically lower or raise the volume, based on elapsed listening time. Volume will also be controlled when the iPod is turned on, making sure not to start a song too loud. Although the Daily Mail thinks this is the real deal, weblog Engadget is weary of automatic volume control making it to iPods in the future.
