This entry is a little overdue, but yea, i finally got the nano!
Went to this place called FTMS House to collect it. The booth looked so temporary, with boxes of freebies like printers and other iPods strewn around, that it wasn't until we approached them to ask for directions did we realise that that was THE redemption counter itself.
The days that followed were filled with frenzied shopping to get some accessory or the other for my newfound toy. In the end i got a USB charger so that i can charge the friggin thing without a com and a nice pale green silicon case to protect it. I heard that it's so small that it could snap. I shudder to think about it. Next up is to find a nice carrying case/pouch for it.
I'm currently using the little black case which used to house my old toy.
Which i passed on to dear Colin. Poor thing, his own black muvo got stolen in camp. May the ears rot off the fucker who took it.
Yes, i sold out. I gave up the functionality of Creative, with it's radio/voice recorder and durability, and instead went for the simple chic of the iPod.
I am now a walking apple advert. Literally.
What can i say? I've been wanting to do something like that since the stupid multicoloured apple ads came on tv. And on mags. And on the walls of the escalator at City Link.
It's not just a music player, its a lifestyle.
I just wanna get my iPod and get on with afterlife.
