iGot and iPod! by Archer on 07-22-2004 at 10:11 AM

I'm pretty stoked about this, it's the first gadget I've bought in a while, and what a gadget it is!  It's a 15gb 3rd Gen model, (I couldn't stretch my budget to a model with more space, and even if I could then I probably wouldn't be able to justify it seeing as my current collection is only 6gb).  Does anybody know of any cooler easter-egg type secrets on it, or possibly any software add-ons for it, such as being able to pause games or save high scores?


RE: iGot and iPod! by bach_m on 07-22-2004 at 10:51 AM

no. there arn't any easter eggs (that i kno of) in the 3G.



but why not get a 4G? they just cam out, are cheaper, and have better battery life.


RE: iGot and iPod! by Archer on 07-22-2004 at 11:26 AM

I ordered it a few hours before the 4g cover of newsweek was released.  I'm not that bothered though, I got my iPod with a dock and inline remote for £175 delivered, which is cheaper than the 4g's, plus I think the new model looks really ugly due to the grey scroll button.

Speaking of iPods!

My B-day is in 7 days (Sketch called the tread first!)

And on B-day I asked for an iPod! I am getting the 4rth Generation new iPod 20GB (I think its the lowest they have for the 4rth Generation).

Those mini-ipods suck. They lost the sleek design and are so ugly and square and the battery life is worse then the 4G and they are missing all the extra crap :p

Obviously, Yes.

barein mind that its not just a Music player. it can keep a calendar on it, ur entire adress book, as well as a notes reader which can read any  .txt file.


it is also a removable harddrive, so its much faster than burning a CD, and has alot more space on it.


so while it can hold lots of music, it can also do so much more.

there were times when the entire Lord of the RIngs movies were transported from one place to another using Peter Jackson's iPod

Err... a full, master film quality, digitalized movie of the length of LOTR weighs MUCH more than 40gb... :P
RE: iGot and iPod! by tomfletcherman on 07-24-2004 at 05:16 PM

lol ipods are the funkiest pice of kit but according to pc pro microsoft will bring out a player that is just as good, but only £50, so looks like they're screwed eventually. I'd just get one cos they are beautiful though...


RE: iGot and iPod! by MC Inferno on 07-24-2004 at 05:27 PM
