I work surrounded by fashion victims, so although they can't get even a single postcard out even after a year, our museum show guides consistently show up halfway through the season and the lifts haven't worked since three weeks after we opened, they all have the latest ipods and gadget paraphrenalia(sp?) before the soldering has even cooled.
And not a single one of them has the origional, they've all had to go back for repair and replacement.
so i'm not buying one any time soon.
I was eying up a creative zen thing though, something tells me it will make nine hour of flying pass a little quicker....

I can think of things that would make a nine hour flight pass more quickly...
...Though the chances of finding a Rabbi and at least one live Chicken on a plane are fairly remote.
Thing is iPods are so easy to use, the others are just kind of also runs.
But the others work which is a big bonus.

My friend has an iPod, and her children and her husband and they all love them and I don't think any of theirs have broken.
Maybe it's just the British ones?

Wouldn't surprise me if you yanks would do that. Make us pay double so you can keep your prices lower, then give us the crap ones...

Ooh, I've been away so long that I acutally had to log in on my home computer! Wow!
Now, to get away from all of this con talk...
Yesterday morning I was listening to one of my favorite radio talk shows--as I am want to do in the mornings--and a film critic guy was talking about this casting call he went to. Some comic dude (the creator of Spiderman, I forget his name) is hosting reality a show on the Sci-Fi channel where contestants compete to become the next super hero! How cool does that sound?! So, a question for everyone: If you could have ONE super power what would it be?
This one really got me thinking... Talk about embracing the innner nerd! But I'll save that for later.
Wacky fun!

i've had an ipod for some years...they're pretty well regarded (the current 5th generation) at a place i linger far too often (Head-fi.org, i go by fierce_freak there). However most are recommending the Creative Zen Vision:M over it lately. There are a couple other good players, but I'd stick to the ipod or the Zen
