Today the iPod turns 7 which in tech years means that it is actually 726 years old.
I am a total tech geek in that I love gadgets, technology, digital everything, and when my wife gave me a 60gb video iPod for my birthday several years ago I never ever looked back. My only experiences with Apple previously had come via Oregon Trail [link] played out on the 1980s Mac in the library, who doesn't love a good text based game on a green screen? From that point on Apple quickly faded out of my life as another obsolete technology that never really took off. Enter the iPod stage right.
From the first time I fired up my iPod I was completely hooked. What impressed me? I love the styling of Apple's products, I love the inherent features/functionality, but more than that I absolutely love the fact that it is simple to use and it works! Almost every day for the past 3 years I have used my iPod. I subscribe to free podcasts via itunes and listen to sermons, free college course lectures (last year I began a series on C.S. Lewis which was really great), I have watched movies on my iPod while flying and sitting in airports, and of course I have listened to hours of music on my iPod as well.
I would highly recommend an iPod to anyone who loves music and anyone who has to travel or to commute on a regular basis.
What could be better than my 60gb Video iPod?
A 32gb iPod touch!
