People using mobile devices on a subway train.What do you do in those cold weather months, when your hands are warmly gloved and you can't bear exposing your poor fingers to the harsh elements? Apple didn't think of this problem when finessing their iPhone touchscreen, but not to worry, South Korea has the answer to this pesky problem.

Via Kotke,

"Sales of CJ Corporation's snack sausages are on the increase in South Korea because of the cold weather; they are useful as a meat stylus for those who don't want to take off their gloves to use their iPhones.

It seems that the sausages, electrostatically speaking, are close approximations of the human finger."

Pretty outlandish. True or Hoax?

The next big software update for iPhone is coming sometime in April and will include a Food section in Apple News+, an easy-to-miss new Ambient Music app, Priority Notifications thanks to Apple Intelligence, and updates to apps like Mail, Photos, Podcasts, and Safari. See what else is coming to your iPhone with the iOS 18.4 update.
