My Apple Video iPod Arrived!My Apple Video iPod Arrived!

I'm sitting here staring at the FedEx "We're sorry we missed you!" door tag on my desk. The FedEx Express delivery person left it while I was out this morning. I can't pick-up the package until after 6 p.m., the tag reads, but I know what's inside.

Yippee!

I'm sitting here staring at the FedEx "We're sorry we missed you!" door tag on my desk. The FedEx Express delivery person left it while I was out this morning. I can't pick-up the package until after 6 p.m., the tag reads, but I know what's inside.My Apple video iPod has arrived!! Yes, I'm an electronics gadget person and I can't wait to try it out. I even paid $13 extra to get it here in two days. I really can't financially afford it, but I bought the 60-Gbyte one for $399, which Apple estimates will hold 15,000 songs, 25,000 photos, or more than 150 hours of video. If ever there comes a time when you really can download an entire movie on these things, I'm going to need as much hard drive space as I can possibly get. For now I'll have to settle for Desperate Housewives and Lost. Apple partnered with Disney to offer downloads of the ABC shows. I'm not really a big television fan. I figure, why watch life when you can live it? I am interested in video podcasting. Anyone else out there buy a video iPod with the 2.5-inch color screen? And if so, what do you think of the technology, and did you get the black one or white one?
