iPod

Post by wbtfg » Wed Jan 26, 2005 9:27 pm

I finally caved and bought an iPod (40G), and I have to say....HOLY $H!T this thing is sweet!

If you get a chance, I highly recommend picking one up. It is so choice. -FB

Let me be the first to say, "Welcome to our cult."

I love mine -- it's a nearly constant companion.

I've got a 20 GB MP3 player (not an iPod though). It's one of those things that after having it for a week, you wonder how you ever lived without it!

Yeah first you get hooked on your iPod, next you will start looking at Apple computers!! :shock: I considered buying an Apple, that is when I knew the iPod had really revolutionized this gadget dork.

I have the first version of the iPod and we now have an iPod mini as well. Just a few bits of advice for you as you start to use your iPod more.

For in car use over FM get the Griffin iTrip(unless you want to spend $100, then there is a better solution) I have gone through 3 FM Transmitters and that one is by far the best for quality(least user friendly interface) If you want something simple to use but not as great of quality get the iRock. Belkin makes one that is garbage.

Also, I would recommend if you spend a lot of time in the car with your iPod to buy an Alpine deck and the iPod interface for it, it is great! You can control your iPod from the deck itself.

I have a cell phone that I putt on manner mode so that I can buzz my bum hole when the police call.

I use my ipod for 65% music and 35% as an external HD, with USB 2.0 file transfer is extremely fast. It's great for storing media, games, and transferring files to other pc's. Plus it's a hell of an MP3 player. ;)

Ditto. My wife surprised me with one for Christmas. I'm paying her back tomorrow with one for her birthday.

Best toy I've ever owned.
