day 347 / 365: iPod Touch

Seriously. You guys.

 

Seriously.

 

I've had gadgets since the day I was born. My rattle was a 2-in-1 rattle / lullaby machine.

 

I've also owned every generation of iPod since it's birth.

 

But this thing is simply the coolest gadget I've ever come across.

 

"Oh, but it's just like the iPhone without the phone."

 

F the iPhone.

 

Phones are meant to be in your pocket. you drop them. you scratch them. You use them so often they take some crazy wear and tear. Plus you add internet, bluetooth, the phone, music, and videos?

 

What do you get?

 

You get a dead battery when you want to call for help from that horrific car accident you were in ...all because you just had to keep watching that stupid Miss Teen USA clip on YouTube this week.

 

Tee-hee...my phone has YouTube!

 

Dumb.

 

No offense iPhoners. I love Apple more than anyone. But you have to keep your phone separate from your badass gadgets. Everytime you try to shove that many features into a device....you lose in someway or another.

 

But this thing....as an iPod? Super sexy. The touch screen and keyboard are amazing. Coverflow (pictured above) actually made me get into having album art. And sliding your finger over the top is actually making me listen to more music. just for the experience.

 

It has Wi-Fi and thus you can get on the internet. Unlike the iPhone you can only do it where you can find the free Wi-Fi...but even if you have to pay for it...it's still less than the $150 a month you'd shell out for an unlimited data plan for the iPhone.

 

Another complaint is that it doesn't have a Maps feature. ...yet it has internet. Thus...it ...has Google..Maps?

 

Add double the space of an iPhone and it makes it the greatest iPod they've made yet. Plain and simple.

 

Now that said, I'm going to go watch that super-sweet YouTube clip of Miss Teen USA on my iPod touch.
