iPod 2GB Nano acquired

3rd July 2006

My iPod shuffle has been rebooting in the middle of songs and failing to turn on, even though it has enough stored engery in the battery. I'm a little disappointed to encounter problems of this severity after barely a year of use.

Since I now find myself a little flushed with loot, I decided to get all consumer-y and get an iPod Nano. The Nano is 2 or three times heavier than the shuffle and has a small LCD on it. It's interesting, but I still don't like that much computer in what is to me a new-fangled walkman.

Still, the nano seems like an interesting device. I suspect I'll use the notes feature (one of the many PDA functions available) a lot. On my palm pilot, I used this feature when traveling to keep my all the metadata of my travel plans in one place.

Yay.
