so i guess everyone has one now

since i bought mine back in september, at least 4 of my closest friends have bought an ipod. just because they loved mine too much i guess... one of my friends was so against apple for the longest time, i never thought he would cross over, but he did, he bought an ibook at around christmas, and loves it to death. and this past saturday he finally got his christmas/graduation present... a 20GB ipod. Watching tv today (Watching much music) i saw someone walk past outside with the white ear phones. Down at the eaton center i was talking with a Sony Store employee, and a Telus Mobility employee about the iPod. Good job Apple at getting your product out and about!

Yes lacross is a fun sport. Oddly today was the first day i've actually played it. We played in gym indoors today because a blizzard hit my city yesterday. I'm not that good, but its still really fun because most of my class hasn't ever played either.

Back to the subject of iPods. :)

I finally, finally saw some iPods over the past couple of days. The first was a girl at the University of Ottawa campus (a rather attractive girl, I might add) who had the telltale white earbuds. She didn't take the iPod out but there was little doubt given how unique the buds are.

The next instance was earlier today. A young man around my age was sporting the earbuds on the bus seat opposite me, and sure enough he took out the iPod to make a selection on it before getting up to leave the bus. What was really amusing was that I was actually

Talk about peer pressure: I actually own a Mac, use iTunes even on my Windows box, but yet these people have iPods before I do! I was planning on holding off until July or August before looking at one, but it's painful to see others enjoying what they have already.

They just started selling them at alot of mainstream store around here(Australia). Some of these store routinly offer interest free payment deal and store credit cards(Which even the unemployed can scam!) So I reckon Ill be seeing more around... still they are damn pricey!
