So much for the gentlemen of OER rushing to the aid of a hi-tech damsel in distress lol.

Maybe some of us are still living with a 80's brick walkman  :shh.

Asking doesn't necessarily mean getting, Julz.  Santa has been totally useless with my requests these last couple of years lol  ;)

I refuse to get sucked into Ipods(the MTV of the PC/Mac world.

I just use a  Panasonic mp3 player that u download WMVs onto via real player.

I can have as many Meg of songs as my chip will hold (sd card)

Its as big as a watch face,so ipod can go stuff themselves :cheers

And roughly, how many songs does it hold, Ox?
I like my iPod because it was free lol - if i had to pay for one I'd be looking around.  What is that one worth?
Title: Re: Ipod
Post by: julzqld on October 21, 2005, 07:53:46 AM
Yeah Ox what's the difference between an MP3 player and an Ipod, including cost-wise.  I need to be able to tell Santa all I can cause Santa's very ignorant when it comes to buying getting me a present.

Tough for Santa when the kids want an ipod mainly cos their friends have one and you give them something different.
No matter how good it is it wont work in their peer group.

If i were u Jewelz,I'd just get the ipod 'cos the kids will be all like "ahhh....thanks mum :banghead" If u dont get the ipod.

My one stores the data on a removable sd chip,similar to the one u may have in your digital camera.
I can store as much as the card allows (I think u can get them up to a gig ir more) whereas Ipod has stacks more storage room.
Question - f "How many songs can i listen to over a 10k run.
The answer= -about40.That includes skipping to ones that give u the vibe needed at the time.

Last week some guy on the radio was talking about ipods and he was saying Apple designed them to be simply the easiest to use mp3 player compared to others on the market. He said with the ipod you need to buy all these attachments or whatever for the ipod to do tasks other mp3 players include automatically. For example things like radio and recording. I don't know if the guy was talking garbage or not as I don't have one but that's what he said.

iPod's are wonderful except in the hands of cretins.
Guess who managed to delete her Itunes library with 8,000+ songs with just one second thought - or one second of not thinking  :banghead
Including my video clips of Brian McKnight - not a great rap for his music, but gee he's good to look at lol. When you get your Ipod Julz, get the one that plays videos and download some of his clips  :-* :-*
See you in a couple of months while i spend every spare second rebuilding my library  :'(

Speaking of ipods

I was in a pub with my son last weekend and there was a song playing and I wondered aloud it it was Nina Simone and my son dialled a number on his mobile and told me to hold the phone near the speaker. The phone then received a text message telling me what the song title was and who was singing it - it was Four Women by Nina Simone.

I was pretty impressed - then I'm easily impressed.

So your son had Nina Simone's number ;D.

In all seriousness, the Ipod might be fragile but the picture quality is bloody impressive going by Moi's one.

Article from: Herald-Sun

CHOICE has listed Apple's iPod in the top ten of its 2006 Shonky Awards citing faulty hardware and warranty issues as the product's weak points.

The Apple product was awarded The Choice iShonk for Dual-level Shonkyness prize today.

Famous last words lol
If you have a warranty, they pretty much replace it if it's stuffed.
If you buy in a pub  ;) tough luck lol

Here's a heads up for you, Jack
Don't try and download too much from one user at one time.
They get peeed off and ban you.
Pretty painful if you're after something rare

Now I'm having problems with my Ipod.  Wouldn't update all the latest stuff I've just purchased on ITunes.  Currently trying to restore it to the factory settings.  Luckily my warranty is still valid.
