Musings

 I took the minimum cables with me on this German trip. Left the iPhone charger at home. Took just one USB cable to charge the phone to the computer. It worked, not that it had any impact on the weight of the luggage (I’ve been collecting paper material and it’s weighing the bag down). 

Most hotels these days have iPod docks that allow you to play music from your iPod. In the business class no frills hotels I’m staying in on this trip, there’re no such amenities (except for the first hotel in Frankfurt). So the iPhone’s speaker is now great, because I can listen to it without ear phones. Great stuff. 

Speaking of ear phones, Apple’s in-ear headphones is great. Nice cables, great to feel it and it fits nicely in the ears. THe ear buds come in three sizes, small, medium and large. And the sound is good. Not too expensive at US$79.
