I have an iPod mini (6 gb), and my sisters have mp3 players (1 gb, Sandisk). Their mp3 players have a fm radio tuner and are decent for the price. I don't have a fm tuner, but I have games on mine. I also love the feature where you can put an .rtf file on the iPod and view it - that's very nice for carrying around school notes to study (or fanfic ). I love the amount of space on my iPod too - I love using it like a hard drive / memory stick. My only complaint with my iPod would be the battery, but I feel like I've learned how to make that work better. So all in all, I love my iPod. _________________

I just have an MP3 player, but it works fine. Why buy something more expensive when I have something that works fine already. _________________

I agree that ipods are very helpful like games and carrying assingments. If you are one of those people who just want music and the other things are a bonus for you. If you want things other then music then you would want an ipod. |

When do you usually find yourself bored stiff, out of curiosity? _________________

My mom got me my iPod, and I love it. Mine only has 4 GB (as opposed to 6) but it took me several months to fill it. (Partly because I'm always changing out songs.) I guess I don't really have a preference, except I'd like to get one of those things where you plug the iPod into it and it plays through a set of speakers. I'd like that better than the tuner I have, because my tuner needs batteries.

I saw one of the things you can plug your iPod into for $50 at . . . Bed, Bath, and Beyond, I think, about 2 weeks ago. I couldn't justify spending the money on it right now, but it seemed nice. I've considered getting just a regular pair of speakers and plugging them into the headphone place though. _________________

That would work, too. Of course, then,it runs on the battery. The other one doesn't, and charges it, too.

I thought Janette was the only real person who uses the word 'yoink'! _________________

Hunh; I never thought of putting a fan fic on there. I'll have to try that next time there's going to be a major storm while I'm at work. _________________ ~.oO Destiny is SO Overrated Oo.~

The only downside is there is a character limit, so you have to figure out what it is and split the fanfic up into several pieces. First time I put a fanfic on there, I was in a long car trip and just getting into the story, when it cut off and I had to wait days to be able to finish it. _________________
