iPod and iPhone Media Download Kiosks Coming January 2008

Although the "upcoming" Zune music kiosk download feature seems obvious thanks to the player's Wi-Fi capabilities, being able to download music onto your iPod or iPhone on the go seems less obvious. However, 22Moo has just announced a date for their iPod- and iPhone-compatible internet kiosk station that lets you download movies, videos, games and music onto your player when you're on the go.

The room has a 32-inch flat screen TV that can be used to order room service, and there is your own personal iPod provided as well. Now, about that free WiFi you've been requesting, I'm afraid...

Adidas Xbox 360 Kiosk

With every passing day in Japan I see more eviden that Microsoft might have got it right this time around. There is a fair amount of hype, Microsoft seems more committed to the Japanese market (example: the Xbox Lounge) and they are employing the clever tactic of making as much of a fanfare about the improved Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XI as possible, which will drag in a good chunk of hardcore gamers like wide-eyed primates to the monolith.
