My new love!

I have a new love in my life and his name is the iPod touch.

I got it last Wednesday after work. I went to the PA Apple Store but they were out, so on a whim I stopped by Fry’s on the way home and they had a whole lot of them just sitting there calling my name.

I actually had already ordered one from amazon.com. The origional ship date was Oct 5th, but I got an email from them that it won’t ship until Novembmer! I was like, sigh, ok I’ll wait.

But then I was talking to my ex-boss and he was saying how much he was in love with his iPod touch. He and I have similar taste in gadgets. It’s because of him I didn’t plunk down money for the iPod video or iPhone. (Best decision of my life I think, well other than marrying the Mister.)

Anyway, this device reminded me of the Sony Mylo. Another cool little device that lets you browse the web and skype, etc all through wireless and it has a QWERTY! Stylus is great but nothing beats a good QWERTY. I was seriously considering getting it until someone pointed out, well, it would be a useless brick if you don’t have wi-fi.

And then there was the iPhone. But I am really a firm believer that phone is for making calls only. I mean, seriously, what if Ed Mcmahon want to call me to tell me I won the “Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes” and I ran out of battery because I was listening to Milli Vanilli?

The iPod touch is going to be the ‘it’ device for me for this year.

I didn’t cancel the iPod I had on order for Amazon. After seeing my new toy, the Mister wanted one as well. We are one hip household.
