It’s amazing what a cultural icon the iPod has not only become, but has been for practicaly it’s whole 5 year life (has it only been 5 years?). I remember, about 2003(ish) when the 3rd generation iPod was around, you’d see someone on a bus, or on the street with those white earbud, and you couldn’t help but take notice. Earbud envy. I worked all summer long and finaly scraped enough together to get a 20gb 3rd gen. Of course, it was replaced with the 4th generation only about a month later…

The way the iPod has revolutionised the way we look at music, and the way we use it in our everyday life, from having maybe 10-15 songs with you to having 4,000, fully merits the iconic status it has been garnerd. I myself have bought 5 iPods for myself & family, purely because you know nobody will have problems using one, they’re just so damn intuitive! I have been a long time frustrated PC user, and have just yesterday ordered an iMac on the strength of my experience with iPods. Happy 5th birthday iPod, and here’s to many, many more!

I found it funny that the iPod got such a lukewarm reception, and the faces of some of the journalists there! Some of them look disappointed! :D

Ah, the power of the retrospect-o-spoce

Ugly my ass! I scowered ebay a few months ago just to get an ORIGINAL ipod. I even saw one that was sealed up for auction (for like $900). I’d totally want to get one, no matter how big it is. I mean IMO the smaller and the thinner, the less it stands out and is kinda dinky. I like how Seal put it in the iPod Introduction: it makes you say “Wow!” Just my 2 cents.

impatient: Must be your ISP… I’m getting right around 1MBps over Verizon FiOS — also note that this is a 290MB video file…

Wow…. I feel superior with my 8GB Nano. Too bad I scratched it up, but I made up for it by buying the iPod a invisibleshield :p
