iPod

Johan Lombaard

I bought an iPod nano yesterday, and I'm in love with it. Does anyone else love / hate it ?

I love mine. I have a very old 20gb ipod with a busted battery that lives in its docking station on the mantle piece at home with some pc speakers, a 4gb nano that I bought when they first came out and an 8gb nano that was an xmas present from my company.

Not i. Those are precious emotions, and should be reserved for people. And programming languages.

I'd like to fourth Shog's(e)motion please. Shog - you're underlining in my message area - what's going on here. Omfg - he installed a spellchechecker. I can't believe it. Here let me test it fouEr times. It works. Congratulations on your anniversary Chris and Bob - great job you two! And we both know! How! Much! I! HATE! Exclamation! Points. Almost as funny as Mr. Ellipsis. I just tested it again. Didn't now Elipsis had II ls. Elipsis. Elipse. Elapse. Eclipse = when is the next one due anyway?

I hate them. They are too big for mp3s, and the screen is too small to watch anything.

Read your sig. You said it yourself, you're the one who is a hatstand. So go put you're dunce cap on and take your insults home Mr Irrelevant. My spellchecker told me you were wrong. I'm not on anything. But cookies, tea and beans. Chocolate covered espresso beans. Dark.

And I think it breaks really easily - too sensitive for sports.

Are ... you ... OK ? Need some rest, probably. :~

Smart man. That's the part that breaks. Or did you know that was what I meant?

I got the old Creative MuVo 100. It is small (just about the right size for me for a MP3 player) and only 1 GB, but handles everything I need. It also runs on just 1 AAA battery and plugs into the USB directly. It even has the ability to record with a build in mic. They even can be had for $50 or less. For me, this works great. It has enough space that I can mow the yard and then water it without being close to hear a song repeat :)

I agree with this for the "big" iPods... I really have no desire to watch anything on a screen that size (maybe if I had long commutes via train I'd feel differently). But the nano is an awesome size for MP3's... I have a 2GB and I feel more naked without my iPod than I do without my phone.

I refuse to buy one until they do subscription services, which sounds like they never plan to do. I have a Creative Zen V and each Tuesday I go to my Napster subscription ($15 a month) and download all the new songs I want.

Neither. I don't own such a device.

I never owned one and probably never will, I hate it when people talk about them like they're any different than the 10,000 other mp3 players out there.
