What do YOU have engraved on your iPod?

I'm curious if anyone has taken advantage of the free engraving offer that Apple is giving (ending today) on the new iPods.



After my old 5gig iPod was recently stolen on a trip to Hawaii (savages!), I decided to bite the bullet and pick up a new 20gig iPod before the free engraving offer expired.



Keeping in mind that everything Apple sells has a resale market later on eBay, I decided against putting my name on the back. Instead, I went for a movie quote that I thought would be funny and appropriate.



My engraving? A quote from Alicia Silverstone in the movie Clueless:



What is it about college and cry-baby music?



Considering I listen to indie rock most of the time, it's appropriate.



What about the rest of you?

    Nothing except the scratches garnered from everyday use (and I mean almost every day). As it should be.

    I wanted to engrave "5000 pirated songs. In your pocket." :-) But I ended up getting mine at the Apple store to avoid shipping charges. Now I think there's no use in engraving mine since I keep it inside the case all the time.

    Depends if it's click or scroll wheel. Do the buttons orbit the dial, or vice versa



    Good choice, though.

    I got "Daniel Tull" engraved on my 40GB. I'm in college and the next 3 years I'll be in uni. Thus it'll be handy so no-one can "claim" it but me, plus I probably wont be able to afford an upgrade until I finsh anyway.

    "E pur si muove" is Italian for (translating not quite literally, but in context) "But it does move"... something that Galileo, according to legend, muttered under his breath after be forced to declare that the Earth stood still.

    Nicely done.



    I saw Morrissey here in Toronto on Tuesday night. Awesome.



    He played 4 Smiths songs.
