Griffin cancels the iFM Radio for the iPod

Griffin Technologies just sent out an email announcing that their iFM Radio for the iPod has been canceled. Why? Two reasons:

First, the iFM for the original iPod relied on the iPod s Wired Remote Control. This part is no longer available separately from Apple for the Original iPods. Although some of the original iPod models came with the Remote, others would need this part separately. Buying a new Remote is no longer possible because Apple has discontinued it.

Second, producing the iFM for the new 3G iPods proved to be impossible due to technical changes in the new models. Although the iFM was initially designed for the original FireWire iPods many of our customers owned the newer iPods and desired the iFM for their model.
