Clickfree Transformer for iPod - Product Review
Published July 30, 2009 @ 16:06 in Technology
The folks at Clickfree asked me if I'd review a product they're launching on August 10th and I said, "sure". It's a Transformer for my iPod that promises to "backup your computer to unused storage space on your iPod or iPhone".
I got the little transformer device, plugged it into my USB slot and plugged my iPod in it. Instantly, it coughed up the following screen.
It's really dummy-proof. If you have room on your iPod, Clickfree will make great use of it. But, my favourite feature of this device is promoted as a "bonus feature". That's like burying the lead. This thing actually copies music from your iPod to your computer. That's right, if your music is stuck on your iPod, this sucker will set it free and copy it back down to your Windows Vista, Windows XP or Windows 2000 PC.
The Clickfree folks, who are out of Richmond Hill, tell me you can also backup playlists on your iPod and not just the music. I needed this sucker about three months ago.

If you are looking for this iPod functionality, you should also check out "SharePod" and "iTunesExport". Both great shareware products that go beyond the Apple restrictions.
