My new Nano
You guessed it - I finally purchased one of those bad boys last Saturday. What can I say? It just rocks!
About 6-7 years ago I got a Sony DiscMan for xmas. It’s lasted me well, but I’ve been wanting to move away from bulky music players for sometime. I’ve been waiting for the size/capacity ratio to reach a decent balance and I think that 4Gb within the volume of a couple of credit cards is good enough. I wasn’t bothered about getting a iPod per se - it’s just that Apple seemed to be the first to release a media player that fitted my needs.
I do think Apple have got most things just about right, so all credit to them. The only feature I wish the Nano had is some sort of normalising facility so that you don’t blow your ear drums between tracks of different volumes. However, I could do some thing myself to this effect by normalising the tracks directly on my laptop before I copy them over.
Anyway, I’m a happy chappy for now, and no doubt all my fellow commuters are happy, enjoying my involuntary tone-deaf singing
