I’ve decided to join the iPod generation.<\/p>\n
I’m a Systems Analyst.\u00a0 I do project planning, requirements definition, design, programming, testing – the whole gamut of the system project lifecycle.\u00a0 That means a lot of time spent sitting at my desk typing.\u00a0 I work in cubicle-land, and until lately my cubicle neighborhood has been pretty sparse.\u00a0 However, it’s getting more crowded lately – and therefore noisier.<\/p>\n
I’ve burned an MP3 CD and listened to it on my PC at work, but I get tired of the number of songs that fit on one CD.\u00a0 I also listen to Internet radio, but I assume that someday the network folks are gonna catch on and ask me to stop.\u00a0 Therefore, what I need is a way to carry my CD collection around with me.<\/p>\n
Sounds like an iPod to me.<\/p>\n
I ordered an iPod Photo 30GB from buy.com last Tuesday.\u00a0 I’m a little annoyed at them for slow shipping – they claimed to have shipped it the same day on Tuesday, but Fedex’s system shows that they didn’t get the trailer until Thursday.\u00a0 It’s really a one-day delivery to me, but it’s not here yet.\u00a0 Should arrive this afternoon.\u00a0 buy.com claims “3 to 5 day delivery” for this item, so they didn’t make it.<\/p>\n
