Timmer, I can’t tell you how glad I am you wrote about your IPOD when you got it. That’s what really got me started thinking about whether I might someday want one.
I now have over 13GB of music/audiobooks (almost 20 days worth!) transferred over to the ‘Pod, but my favorite feature (I think) is that I can copy photos to it and show them to folks, no ‘puter required. I’ll need to get the a/v cable before I take it home with me to Ohio or to Texas for T-giving, because while that little 2″ screen looks great, sometimes you just need a bigger screen.
I also love how easy it is to burn CDs from ITunes. I download audiobooks from audible.com, and burning them to CD was a tedious undertaking, at best. ITunes is much more automated, and seems to be quicker, as well. Not that I need to burn them to CD anymore, since I have the FM transmitter for the ‘Pod, but it’s nice to have an alternative.
I’m not quite to the “how did I live without one” stage, but overall, it’s a gadget I’m glad I’m got.
