Incidentally, I ordered it from Apple Store Ireland on Thursday (21st Aug) and it was quoted as "2-3 weeks". Got a despatch email on Saturday evening and it arrived today. Very cool
One little black speck on it, just to the left of the display, but it turns me on like Cindy Crawford's mole. I'm going to sleep with this thing in my underwear.
I am finally finally going to get an iPod today! I'll be grabbing a 10 gig at the Chestnut Hill Apple Store in a couple hours. It's a 3 months early birthday gift from my parents, because I'm leaving next Tuesday to spend the semester in Europe. I've wanted one of these babies since the very first time I laid eyes on one, but never had an excuse to spend that much money on one before now (of course, I'm not spending the money, which is a nice thing ). I'll add my number when I get home tonight. (I'm typing posting from my sister's BC dorm room at the moment...damn football team lost to Wake Forest...bummer of a game...anyway...)
Related question: does anyone know anything about the MacAlly Mace Pro Noise canceling head phones? They look pretty cool, and I'm probably gonna shell out, but I wouldn't mind some input. (The clincher for me is the two-prong airplane adapter; I'm going to be spending a lot of time on airplanes in the next few months, and that would just be nice). Anyway, I'm out for now, but I'll be back to add my count soon.
Now, officially (finally) #59. That last post was so succinct because we walked into the store and they basically shut the door behind us. Chestnut Hill Mall closes at 8:00, very weird. Anyway, the salesman talked my parents into the 15gig, and I certainly wasn't going to argue. Also, they had the new G5s and I must say, I love them. Especially the inside. It's just so clean. Not like any other computer I've ever seen. They are big though. Noticeably bigger than the G4s.
Well, that's all for now. Time to play with my new toy.

I played Unreal on an MDD at the B.Mac in Ottawa (and got slaughtered) and those are pretty big. Mostly just wide.
The G5, now: I can't wait to get a load of that beast.

A gorgeous, perfect 15GB model.

I can't get over how light and thin it is.

I've convinced three people on my track team to buy 'Pods as well.
