For the most part, the Freestyle is very similar to the original OhMiBod, in that its a vibrator that syncs to the sounds of your music (or, if you prefer, works as a normal vibrator—but where's the fun in that?). But there's one key feature that makes the Freestyle a winner: unlike its predecessors, the Freestyle won't leave you tangled up in wires.

In previous incaranations, OhMiBod's toys always plugged directly into the iPod. While the long cord made the situation workable, it was hard to ignore the fact that you were, literally, tethered to your iPod—a situation that could make things a little tricky, especially during partner play.

The Freestyle, on the other hand, has no such limitations. Rather than plugging the toy into the vibrator, one merely has to plug a transmitter into the iPod, which wirelessly transmits the vibrations to the Freestyle. It's a small change, but one that's greatly appreciated—and greatly improves the experience.

However, the toy wasn't quite perfect: much to my disappointment, the Freestyle abandons the wonderfully curvy shape of the NaughtiNano, opting instead for a Slimline-like body. It's okay and all—but it would be nice to see a wireless iPod vibe with a more body-friendly shape. (I also have fantasies of a very tiny Freestyle that can be tucked into the panties for discreet play in public—but maybe that's just me.)

I'd also love it if some future version of the Freestyle would enable the user to skip through songs using the toy alone. See, because the cord-free nature of the Freestyle gives me such freedom, I've taken to plugging my iPod into my speakers, and enjoying the beats from all the way across the room. And sometimes, well, I'd like to be able to switch a song without actually getting up and going to the iPod. But, uh, maybe that's just me.

Anyway: when it comes to iPod-synced vibes, the Freestyle is easily the pinnacle of achievement (for now, at least). And I, for one, look forward to enjoying many, many wireless orgasms for years to come—or at least until they come out with the next, even better model of this toy.

Gamelink’s got porn for the iPhone, iPod and the AppleTV, so if you’ve got your portable device in one hand and the other hand free, now’s the time to start taking back your old bedroom. You probably don’t want to get caught watching “It’s A Mommy Thing 3” or “Daddy’s Dirty Daughter,” but there’s plenty of other porn for the holidays.

And don’t forget, you’re going to need something to watch on the plane!

· See iPod-Ready Movies at gamelink (gamelink.com)

Of course, the whole "iPhone porn" angle is really nothing more than marketing hype, since you'll be able to get pretty much any video you're able to import into iTunes onto your iPhone, including plain old QuickTime videos—but we still appreciate any means by which we can take our favorite smut with us wherever we go. And besides, hype is pretty much what this new thingamajig is all about. So, uh, when is it coming out again?

Update: Hustler jumps on the iPhone Porn hype bandwagon as well ... or rather, tries to stop it in its tracks: "HustlerWorld Becomes First Website Available On the iPhone" (hustlerworld.com)

Listen, we know that the iPhone won't be out until the 29th, and we further know that it is not any different to put porn on your iPhone than it is to put it on your iPod. But the important thing is that Digital Playground told us first that they would have content for the iPhone and it's not like they said they were releasing movies on Blu-Ray or that they were entering the celebrity sex tape business.

Plus, we have documentary evidence of both Shay J. and Jesse using Macs, so we're inclined to Think Different(ly). - GP

From the moment Steve Jobs unveiled the tiny little miracle called the iPod back in 1948, folks have been trying to find ways to use it to get off. Some innovations have been better than others (it's kind of hard to get turned on by action that's 2.5 inches square, you know), but we think the gimmick cooked up by MadameXpod might be one the sexiest we've seen yet. The premise: hot girls strip down to their underwear, plug in their earbuds, turn on their favorite music and see what happens. Meanwhile, the MadameXpod photographers do their best to document the whole thing and share the best captured moments on their site. The samples aren't quite as generous as we'd like, but what you can see is a cool blend of sexy, artsy and naughty photos, that demonstrate the beauty of what a good mix tape can do. Just make sure your battery is fully charged, because you do not want to run out of juice in the middle of your favorite um, ... song.

Even if things don't seem to change much around here where celebrity crotch flashing is concerned, the relentless march of sexual technology continues on apace with the release of the second generation model of the iBuzz, which is now available with twice as many input jacks for attachable vibrating attachments (i.e., two), four additional speeds ("for pitch-perfect orgasms", of course), and a sleeker new design. You'll still have to supply your own iPod or other portable music player (we're told it even works with a Zune, if you're feeling especially perverse) and appropriate playlist; according to a survey on the LoveHoney site, the most popular song for getting off was Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing". Surely you can do better than that?

Browsing through the listings at MyiPlayground makes us feel wistful for the good old days of smut (i.e., two years ago) when the words "mobile porn" were on everyone's, er, lips; when the prospect of never having to leave your house without a hot lesbian fisting threeway in your pocket at last became a reality; and when the letter "i" when prefixes to anything made it automatically New and Exciting. But nostalgia probably isn't the only thing you'll feel while browsing through this collection of paysite reviews and free hardcore clips from various TGP and preview galleries formatted to fit your iPod, PSP, or mobile phone; there's actually quite a bit of decent material to persue even if you don't own a handhelf device on which to view them. If we hadn't just traded in our bulky old video iPod for a more compact Shuffle, we might actually have downloaded a few clips to make our morning commute more interesting too.

For several years I have wondered when there would be a viable MP3 player/phone/contact manager/camera when instead, tucked away in a New Hamster laboratory, scientists have been perfecting the iPod-compatible vibrator.

I received an OhMiBod at this summer's Dildo Convention and have been honing my playlist ever since. Tune in after the gap for some thoughts by an actual lady.
- GP

- - -

Fabled and faithful assistant Miss Trixie assumed the position.

"Now look here, Miss Trixie," I said. "Just fucking relax."

I had carefully selected several slow jamz, Sousa marches, and a lot of my more erotic spoken word efforts for an iTunes playlist that would have made Jesus Christ Himself give up His day job. I then plugged the supplied Y-signal splitter into my 4th-generation iPod's headphone jack, plugged in a pair of earbuds to one jack and a cord attached to a standard vibe into the other.

"Lie back, baby," I said, "and would it kill you to pull your pants down?"

The OhMiBod responds to signals the way those darling novelty Coke cans did. We started out with AC/DC's "Highway to Hell".

"Ooh!" Miss Trixie said over the music, and then settled in as the vibrator buzzed and thrummed.

"It's not as sensitive to the beat as you'd think," she said. "But - wow - here's the drums."

She noticed that the device picked up vocals better than instruments.

"Try something with really loopy vocals," she demanded.

I switched over to the Focus classic "Hocus Pocus".

"I love this song," she yelled. "But it's not doing anything special when he yodels."

She grabbed the iPod and flipped around herself, noting the responsiveness to the guitar in Jeff Buckley's version of "Hallelujah" but that Leonard Cohen's original was doing it for her. That Canadian lawyer still has it.

She flipped over to Jim Carroll's "People Who Died" (this is why we're together). "Once it gets going, it just hammers away," she said, which I thought was a criticism. "Not that that's bad," she added. Was she talking about me?

Whenever one talks about dildos, one must needs mention Steely Dan. We put on "Peg" but it felt too on the nose.

"Miss Trixie," I asked gravely. "Could you come with this alone?"

"No," she said. "It would have to be a delicious part of an otherwise nutritious breakfast. And it's so pretty. It's a very pretty piece of equipment."

"But it will never take my/your place," we said together.

We have it on completely specious authority that Apple is currently developing a surgically installed subdermal version of its iconic music playing hardware, which will come with the option of having micro subwoofers implanted in various parts of the body; instead of the familiar scroll wheel, users will simply have to rub their bellies in order to skip to that "Since You've Been Gone" megamix during peak moments of their elliptical machine workouts. Until the release date arrives, however, we'll have to settle for various vibrating peripherals and wearable accessories like the iGoove Panty, which is nothing more than a pair of the usual black lace unmentionables with a "pink ribbon and removable pocket to hold iPod nano, money or other small personal items." Just make sure you remove your iPod before throwing them into the wash. (At least we hope they're machine washable. We have a feeling that these can get pretty sticky really quickly.)

Since the iPod is already sort of a sex toy in terms of its fetishistic appeal, we're surprised it took someone this long to create a real sex toy based on both its functionality and design aesthetic (those fake candy-colored iMac-style vibrators that made the interwebnet rounds a few years ago and various clunky MP3-powered vibes already on the market notwithstanding): The unfortunately named OhMiBod Music Powered Vibrator is described as the "ultimate acsexsory™" to Apple's ubiquitous device and allows the user to create unique vibration patterns based on whatever music happens to be playing: "The combination of listening and feeling your music quickly transports you to a place where music, mind and body come together to create an unbeatable sexual experience." Sure, we've seen the same basic concept before, but at least this version looks cool—and given the fact that some of us here at Fleshbot have based our entire decorating schemes around the colors of our iPod Minis, we sort of can't wait to get our hands on one so that we can feel that much more coordinated in everything we do. Hope we manage to score one before Apple's lawyers do.

We feel like we must have blogged this before at some point, but a search of ye olde Fleshbot archives doesn't turn up anything and we think this clip dreamed up by someone who realized the kind of advertising that Jobs & Co. should have commissioned in the first place deserves permanent pride of place in our hall of fame. (Warning: don't try any of these moves at home. Those white cords might look cool and all, but they tend to get tangled up in the most inopportune places at the most inconvenient times. Trust us on this one.)
