Get Hitched and copy files between iPods

hitch.gif

Presented as a device that will transfer files between any two USB devices, the Hitch from Sima Products seems destined for primary use as a medium to copy files between iPods, if for no other reason than how it looks.

The Hitch is compliant with all copy-protection, so it will still manage licenses. It has a very intuitive interface complete with touch wheel, making it a breeze for anyone familiar with an iPod. It uses USB 2.0 technology, so transfers are zippy (an average album of 15 songs takes about 80 seconds to copy from one device to the other). Hitch’s internal battery can also charge any device, too. A fully charged Hitch can charge 2 iPods (5th generation video models).

Think of all the Hollywood spies that could have used this on the fly to swipe secrets. If nothing else, I’m sure someone will quickly figure out how to bypass the copyright protection feature.
