Just picked up my new 15GB 3Gen iPod last weekend. W00t! My goal: put all my music that I ever owned on this thing, and use it everywhere, and just store my CDs in the closet. No more lugging around a CD case, and no more scratched CDs that skip. I want to use the iPod on the road, at the gym,...

Well... Me and my new love have been together for a week now.I just love my iPod, which is my first Pod.Everything is running smoothly, except from buying a pair of new earbuds for her (it's she-Pod). Have a pair of Sennheiser MX 400 on the way.. hope she likes them better than the Sony EX70.Sn...

Ok I have had my iPod for about two weeks now. This thing is the best thing I have ever owned. I used to have an old laptop in the living room (which my wife hated) that I used to play MP3s on the stereo. I have since gotten rid of that and now all we have is this super cool little thing that just r...

Well, after sitting in my parents closet for a few weeks (you don't know how tempting it was to go in there and crack 'er open), my birthday has come and I have been granted my new 15 GB iPod. I had an mp3 player once, it was some rio device that sounded bad and held like 13 songs. I don&#...

Well after having my Ipod for a week now, I think I am prepared to give my impressions about it.I decided to go for the 15GB model and being the purist that I am, ordered it directly from Apple's website (as there is no Appple store close to where I live). After about a weeks wait, the Airborne...

First of all I've got to give thanks to this site, without it I wouldn't have found out about Ephpod and I would have been stuck with MusicMatch (which i've used in the past and generally stay away from now). I unpacked the iPod, installed the software, cancelled out when it was time...

Sadly, my ipod has left me...took my first cruise this past week and had it with me for the plane ride...and much to my dismay found it and my cell phone gone when we reached the airport for the fly home. :( Presumed stolen...wish I'd kept better watch over it. It was given as a bday present ab...

Hi, just got my ipod. On the first day it was blasting away for 10hrs. How long do you guys spend listening to it? Bit worried that the HDD will go out on me.

evening all,well, i'm amazed. i picked up a new 15gig ipod earlier this afternoon and have only just opened the box. first impression? wow... it's soooo small. i'd only ever seen ipods in photos and seeing it in real life really blew me away.after ringing every applecentre here in syd...

I got my ipod almost a month ago having a little portable mp3 experience in the past. My first mp3 player i bought off ebay even though i had a Rio sport waiting for me come christmas time. The one i bought off ebay was slightly used, and extremely small. It was about the same size as a credit card....

My iPod storyWhat I got New 15G iPodWhere B&H in New York (via internet)Paid $389.99 + $9.something shippingMP3 players eh. I love ?em. My first foray into this area was my purchase of the Nomad II Jukebox. Now, here was a thing that could store 6GB?s of...

I got my 10gb g3 iPod last night, for which I'd been waiting and saving for a long while. It's incredible! I was going to get it and a FireWire card at Best Buy, but when I went they had no FireWire cards, so I quickly drove across the street the Circuit City, got an Adaptec card, and drov...

After waiting 2 weeks for delivery i have my 15gb iPod! I've had it for a week now and have had absolutely no problems using it with my PC. Just like everybody has said, Musicmatch is a complete joke. i downloaded Xplay and found that a joy to use. I've spent the last few days copying all...

I just got a 30GB ipod as an (quite unexpected) gift. I have both a Mac and a PC and couldn't decide which one I wanted to set it up on. I decided to go with the PC since I have a 120GB hard disk to hold my mp3s and my powerbook only has 30GB and it wouldn't have worked out well.I had a li...

Today I finally decided to take my iPod to the beach with me. The temperature outside was around 145 degrees (seriously). At first i was worried that something might happen. So I was sitting by the pool listening to the iPod and it was under direct sunlight and I looked down at the iPod to change th...

There doesn't seem to be any "New Users" forum/thread, so I guess I'll post here to introduce myself.I actually got my iPod last Friday, but I then went on a three day camping trip before I could do anything with it. I went out and got a FireWire card for my PC, it installed beautifully,...

Bought a MAC 10GB Gen2 Ipod from Target. Took it home and ooo'd and aahh'd. Read almost everything in Ipodlounge. Downloaded Ephpod on my PC running WinXP. Converted it to a WinPOD. Transferred some songs. And there was much rejoicing! Happy happy joy joy! Everything went so smo...

Well, it was bound to happen sometime, with my coordination skills (or lack thereof). Today I accidentally dropped my eight-day-old 15 GB iPod from about hip height (it fell out of my pocket) to a linoleum kitchen floor. I was horrified. However, it still works beautifully. Also, there were no dents...

...is something I definitely DO NOT have. And I have 39 days until I get my brand new 10GB iPod. AHHH! The wait is killing me! *goes back to his corner and curls up in a ball*

I just got a new 30gb iPod (which rules all!). The only problem I am having with it is that some of my songs just end in the middle. It's only certain songs, though, so I think it's the encoding, not my iPod. Is there a way to be sure of this, and if this is the case, is there a way to...

Hey,I just got my 15gb ipod. Installation was smooth, but I debated whether to install MMJB, or just go straight to Ephpod, because I had heard so many bad things about MMJB. I decided to try MMJB and it wasn't bad. :eek: It definitly had a few faults but it recognized the ipod right away and...

Well after drooling over my friends 10GB iPod after he let me borrow it for a few days, I knew I had to have one. Then my girlfriend breaks my Slim X rather spetacularly, down a flight of stairs into many pieces.So you know I had to buy it.I finally went over to the Clarendon Apple Store and bought...

I live in Nrothridge and it is REALLY hot! I'm afraid of taking my iPod to college cuz I'd either have to hold it in my hand or bury it in my backpack... so how do you guys deal with weather? or just how do you carry your ipods around?

I realized something going through the iPod lounge forums. The majority of the people that own an iPod treat it as if its party of a 'family'. Something that is extremely valuable, like jewelery or something. I think I can safely say that we are all proud owners of iPods. If something woul...

"The horror...The horror..." as the famous Brando quote goes. I never thought I could equate 'horror' at the amount of time it's taken to get my iPod.I'm sure there's been longer waits, but when you've been lusting over a little bundle of white joy from afar, you sudden...

My new ten GB iPod arrived from Amazon yesterday. This is my first portable MP3 player and I am very impressed.After instaling the apple software, I quickly uninstalled Music Match and the iPod Music Match plug-in and fired up Ephpod. It worked great, allowing me to transfer my music to the iPod a...

A month since I got my 15Gb iPod, and nowit's totally screwed. And I'm so sad. :(I had left my iPod charging on the desk. I found it later in my Dog's bed, after hunting for it. He had climbed up onto the desk, grabbed it in his mouth, went back to his bed and knawed on it.It stil...

My husband gave me a 10 gb for my birthday yesterday along with the Belkin FM transmitter for my other pod...my VW New Beetle. I am in love with my iPod, I have already compiled 150+ of my favorite songs off of cds and am working on more. I'll post it's name as soon as it lets me know wh...

It's been 18 days since they shipped it from their storage thingy or whatever so far and it STILL hasn't arrived!! That's like two and a half weeks!! It's driving me mad!! I want my dunkPod!!:( :(

My iPod (15 GB) arrived yesterday, and it is everything I hoped it would be (except for a minor skipping problem, which I am trying to address in a different forum section). The packaging was incredible, and everything works very smoothly and is stylishly designed, of course. I am getting the feelin...

I finally picked up my 15 gig Ipod... Woohooo... :P:P

Be honest here guys!It's only been a few days but I have to say that until now things are rather smooth in our 2-pod household.Needless to say I anticipated that getting us both a personal iPod would be a definite must, especially seeing that we both have diverse music tastes (he loves jazz, I...

Sorry i crossposted

So I was over at my buddies place this evening, and we had this huge power outage. Right in the middle of us all sitting at the kitchen table playing a board game. So what's the first thing I do? Stumble over to my backpack in the living room, snag my iPod, and use the backlight as a flashlight...

For all those interested - my baby arrived today, having survived her long arduous trip across the atlantic.She is, simply put, beautiful: my new (2nd hand) 15gig. I agonized for days, weeks, months on the right name. As I plugged her into my iBook for the first time today - it hit me - Indiepod...F...

Well, I longer have my pride and joy. Last Tuesday our house burnt down, and along with losing a dog, all our possesions, and heirlooms, I lost My ModPod, with over 6000 songs. I feel naked. I dug through where my bedroom was and found what was left of it. The only thing that was left was the me...

Today, I just had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled. Two of them were horizontal impacted and two of them were fully developed. For those who don't know, horizontal impacted teeth usually invovles cutting away the soft tissue and the bone above the teeth in order for them to be removed successf...

A few days ago, I finally got an iPod (10GB model, not too fanatical about the accessories), but apparently, the challenge was not really getting the money to purchase it, but rather, to transfer the songs onto it. This was a nightmarish scenario that proved to be even more frustrating than most peo...

Today was almost a good day. My mother came home and said "get ready were going to best buy." My mom has never forced me to go to best buy. Today was the day I was going to get my ipod. We get there and I almost run to were the ipods were kept. :eek: NO! they had no ipods left. Best buy is the only...

Hello, everyone! I have been a dedicated ipod fan (without owning one yet) ever since they came out, and have been enjoying and observing this website for a while now also. I really wanted to get an ipod last summer, but I had just purchased an ibook and was too poor. :( I was thrilled when the ne...

So on Saturday my sister In-Law had a Birthday party at our house (her house too) and everything was going according to plans, but then all her people are big rockheads and all they had was rock music to listen to, and they started getting restless and wanting to dance but noone has dance music, so...

And can I change it later? I was thinking either Duncan, Dunk or Dunky... lol :D (yes, i'm obsessed with him:eek:)

So, on June 7th, I got all graduated from high school. After all of the weepy stuff, I got home and was anxious to open my graduation presents. My mom set a large box in front of me. Once opened, immediately visible inside was a small rectangular box: it turned out to be the digital camera I wanted...

Just wanted to thank everyone for giving me the inside track on the coolest mp3 player in the world. I've wanted an iPod ever since they came out but the sleekness and size of the 3rd gen players was what finally sold me. So, I finally plunked $550 (sales tax included) for a 3rd gen 30GB iPod...

I just got my new ipod it is the best 300$ i've ever spent. When i opened the extremely beautiful box, my eyes glanced at my first ipod. It was the most overwhelming experience i've ever had. I unfortunatly, wasnt going to be home for a few hours so i couldnt copy my muic onto it. I ha...
