IPOD Nano(t)?

Ha. I knew it. The IPOD Nano was too good to be true. But, let's be honest how many new technologies have the kinks worked out of them. Earlier this month Apple released the IPOD Nano, the smallest Ipod in the Apple family. Hailed as "impossibly small" consumers rushed to retailers only to realize that "impossibly small" came with consequences. At first some noticed that the screen was easy to scratch, but now the complaints have escalated from scratched screens to outright shattering of the small screen. Instead of retailers having the deal with the surge in angry customers, Apple itself has decided to grant dissatisfied consumers with full refunds or replacements.

Although it has been proven that the Nano has bugs it won't deter my purchasing one. Of course it will most likely be a second generation Nano.

Back in Action

I'm back from my month or so vacation. In the past month there have been a host of things going on. From Hurricane Katrina and now Rita the Gulf Coast has been rocked. In Tech news Apple has just released the Nano, and although sales have been through the roof new users are finding out that the color screen is very easy to scratch and damage. Ok, more updates tomorrow. Glad to be back
