It’s currently eagerly sucking up the music on my laptop.
Only ~4,500 songs to go. We’ll be here a while.
Yes, I finally got permission to buy a new toy, since we had a bit of a windfall and have some extra cash even with the wedding coming up in just over two weeks(!) and we figured we’d need something to do one the plane to Ireland.
Of course we now have one iPod for two people, so I bought the iSplitter so we can both listen. The iSplitter is just a 1/8″ Y-adapter, but being made by Monster Cable it’s three times as heavy, big, and costly than it probably needs to be. But, hey, it’s white and the name starts with ‘i’, so what the hell. (Of course I could have bought the same thing from Radio Shack for like three bucks, but again, what the hell)
And Apple even gives you sixteen free songs from the iTunes music store! Not “sixteen songs of your choice”, no, it’s the “iTunes New Music Sampler”, literaly chock full of three bands I’ve heard of.
Now I just need to remember to by a power adapter for whatever goddamn incomprehensible plug the use in Ireland. And this, because actually listenening to CDs in the car is just so… 1999. And this, because there’s nothing like hanging a large, ungainly battery pack off of your elegantly designed little toy. And maybe even iPod Socks. I mean, let’s not be rational here, it’s a cult after all.
All we need now are some Apple-designed white Nike running shoes.
