| Apple Wins Again |
 by Fëanor |
Recently, after complaining a great deal about Apple and how iTunes and iPods work, I mentioned that I was planning on buying another iPod anyway, having maxed out my old one. Well, with poppy's blessing, I went ahead and made the new 120GB iPod an early Christmas gift to myself. Seeing as how there was no longer any reason to go to the Apple Store, and since it was about 25 bucks cheaper online, I ordered it from Amazon. It arrived on the doorstep yesterday. I opened it up and fondled it a little, and was surprised to discover that it's quite a bit different from my year-and-a-half old 80GB model. It's slimmer and sleeker, with a matte finish, and the menu is more detailed and has a cool split-screen thing going on. There's also a search feature. Impressive! All I really needed was 40 more gigabytes, but I'll happily accept new features on top of that.
Anyway, I'm now busy loading the new iPod from my backup. It's a happy Thanksgiving indeed! |
