Toy!

Well, I throughly killed my iPod over the weekend. It got wet when rain blew into my tent. We thought it was the battery but a trip to MacDepot on E Dorothy Lane yesterday confirmed our worst fears. The motherboard was fried. Dead, dead, for a ducat dead. Sound taps.

Tom wasn't keen on replacing it with another classic iPod as they are due for a new release - buy one now and we would miss the upgrades.

To cut to the chase, we walked out of the store with an 8 gig iPod Touch. It was an pre-January upgrade model so the price was reduced. Even with buying and downloading the upgrade we still saved money over the new and improved model.

It's a very cool toy with some fun bells and whistles

I shall have fun playing with it's potential. :-)

Were you able to rescue all the data on the old iPod?
No, but that wasn't a problem. Everything I had on the iPod was still available on the computer.
Ohhhhh, shiny!!!
Toys! Fun electronic gadgets! Lucy like
Nice.

I still am having fun with my iPod classic. It's 120 Gig, so it can hold my entire CD collection (and probably a whole lot of my DVDs if I can figure out how to get them onto there).
My classic iPod was a 20 gig and I was only using about half of it's capacity.

I may regret the 8 gig if/when I get into videos or movies, but for now it's only half full and I'm still figuring out the cool bells and whistles. :-)
