Archive for January, 2008The iPod Touch is the best computer that I have ever owned.I never would have believed it but it has almost completely replaced my laptop for web-browsing when I'm at home. It is much better at contact and calendar management than my mobile when I'm out and keeps me entertained as well. I can't wait for an iPhone now.
Asteptam si varianta Zune de la Apple. :D
Ok here is a MUST! go sing up and do offers and stuff and get free stuff like xbox points, wii points etc.. Just take a look PROOF "this is me opening up my first prize" Click the banner at the bottom of the video!
Something weird started happening to my 2 year old 5th gen iPod's display. It started with a small spot, and within a day became a whole bunch of lines. I watch a lot of video podcasts (hey, to make good shows, you gotta watch good shows too, you know) during my free time at work, so the lines became very obvious and very distracting. The funny thing is that they disappear after the back light goes off. I guess that means I'll be receiving a new iPod soon (I got this one for free, a miracle, like many of the gadgets I own...) :P I hope it's a 16GB iPod Touch! :D Thanks Abba! P.S.: That album playing on my iPod is . He visited our church again last Sunday and I loved his music, so I bought it.
This morning was a slow start to my day. I was slow to get out of bed and do the reading for today's class. I got out of the house with enough time to get down to the campus without running to class. During English some of the other students read off their short essays to the teacher. I pretty much zoned myself out for a bit. After that we discussed a short story by George Orwell. We managed to get half of it done before the class ended, although we have to do some of it for homework. Lame. The teacher also admitted what I have been suspecting. He is in fact Canadian. I fucking knew it. I headed home to an empty house. The first thing I did when I got in was check some sites and my e-mail. I ate some lunch while watching TV, mainly part of an X-Files episode. Played a little Battlefield 2 and then I started to feel tired and bored so I fell on the bed and stayed there until my mom came home. A little later on and I got an IM from Tammi and she was talking about her troubles with organizing her music collection. This inspired me to do the same. I switched around some folders and organized albums under the artist's main folder. This should help my new media player see my music easier. After sorting my music I loaded up Songbird which I have been playing with (it is still in beta). Songbird is from the same people who created Firefox and Thunderbird so I know it will kick more ass as time goes on. A few minutes and all my music was set. All it needs for me to be even happier with it is the Last.fm plugin. You won't be seeing any updates on it until one comes out, although you still might see updates from my iPod when I plug it in to iTunes (I need to remake my playlists due to my organizing efforts, stupid Apple). As for now I am just relaxing for the night talking with Tammi and dreading math tomorrow. I'm sure it will suck like always.
Piper Jaffray Analyst Gene Munster writes in a research note to clients on Monday that Apple is "in position to transform the portable music market into a portable computing market". Munster believes the company will "introduce cheaper, innovative iPods with Wi-Fi and multi-touch technology" in the near future with email and web browsing applications included as well. Munster reasons that due to a significant slowdown in growth of the standalone digital audio player market, Apple has to maintain growth in its iPod business by introducing more functionality within its iPod player. "We believe that the iPod touch is the first of several Internet-connected iPods that Apple is currently developing" say Munster, reiterating his buy rating and $250 price target on Apple stock. D.S.
so my friend showed me a song on her ipod. turned on my radio for the first time in ages. went into a store yesterday. now i've got just about the chorus of the song down. over and over and over.
Just in case you haven't seen the incredible debut video, or for those of you that STILL can't get enough of "LIKING" it, below are the links for your ipods and zunes. http://www.edreysmusic.com/podcasts/ilikeitipod.mp4 This Happy Meal is on the house. In the words of my nephew Reekie Deek..."Uncle Dreys...I LIKE IT!"
The iPod itself is a hard sell as a Valentine's Day gift, one that screams "Holy shit, I'd better get them something!" For anyone who has taken this option and is now reading this thinking a grave mistake has been made, take these helpful tips:
As a complete aside, I just unsubscribed from the Apple newsletter. Upon reading my opening paragraph, what choice did I have? Now in my sights: Border's, Go Daddy, eBay. How many newsletters do you receive which you have no intention of ever acting on? Update: Paypal just copped it as well. I'm reclaiming my inbox and nobody is safe!
อ้าว...งงล่ะสิว่า ตกลงแล้ว Gadget ตัวนี้มันคืออะไรกันแน่? อย่าว่าแต่เพื่อนๆ เลยค่ะ เพราะ แม้แต่ซีเองก็ปวดหัวเหมือนกัน ชื่อของมันก็คือ USB Aroma Radio+Speaker สรุปสั้นๆ ก็คือ อุปกรณ์ยูเอสบีที่รวมเอาฟังก์ชันต่างๆ ที่สามารถสร้างความรู้สึกผ่อนคลายกับผู้ใช้ไว้ มากมายนั่นเอง

I receive Apple's regular newsletters pointing me to all manner of wares available in their store pretty regularly. I haven't unsubscribed, and I don't really know why. I'm not big on impulse purchases and I read enough to be well aware when a new product has arrived or is at least about to. On top of that, while I'm completely trading in traditional notions of gender stereotypes, as a guy I do not want a pink iPod. I'd be interested to know if women received a newsletter pushing a blue or black iPod for their male counterparts, but I somehow doubt it.
