PodConsole adds serial connection to your iPod

I've said this before, but I'm amazed not only by the cottage industry of accessories that has grown around the iPod, but also by the groups of people working to expand on its functionality. The folks at Kineteka Systems are a good example of this. They've developed a device called the PodConsole, which adds a DB9 serial interface to your iPod. The PodConsole plugs into the port next to the headphone jack on top of the iPod, and can be used for a tty console (if your iPod is running linux) and more. The website also says that they are currently designing a new board for the iPod Called PodJack that will add even more i/o options to the iPod. Check it out.
