Transfer funds to any bank account via mobile phone

In a new service that is set to revolutionize the retail money payment sector in India, consumers will now be able to transfer money from their accounts to any other account in the country using their cell phones via the National Payment Corporation of India’s (NPCI) Inter-bank Mobile Payment Service (IMPS). The NPCI is the umbrella organization for all retail payment systems in the country owned and operated by banks.

The system is as secure as the net banking facility. The major advantage of IMPS is that a customer does not have to use a computer or an internet-enabled phone to transfer funds. Till now, the transfer of money through mobile phones was only allowed if both the sender and the receiver held accounts with the same bank. It is India’s first instant, real-time, 24x7 fund transfer facility in the retail payment sector.

iWaterproof Your iPod and iPhone

When Spot Cool Stuff travels with an iPod we always have it in a waterproof case, whether we plan to being near water or not. A case that protects an iPod from water also protects it from sand (which, we suspect, is a more common cause of iPod mortality than water is) and from everyday dust and grime. A good waterproof case will also protect an iPod from knocks and dings.

Not all waterproof iPod cases are created equal. In fact, most are inferior. Some are little more than glorified zip-lock bags—they’ll work okay at first, not so much after a few months. Other cases are prone to accidental opening, provide an obstructed view of the screen or make operating the iPod cumbersome.

Here’s our selection for the best waterproof iPod cases. Read on or click directly to the portion of the review that interests you.
