iLots to take in
As expected, Apple have announced today a hybrid mobile phone and iPod player in one device. BBC News Story here, or of course loads about it on the Apple website here.
And if that isn’t enough to get you excited, they’ve now gone and released a super-slim version of the ‘Pod – the iPod Nano, that is really a better version of the iPod mini – but now much thinner, sexier and in colour!
And to round things off, they’ve also gone and brought out iTunes version 5.0 as well! Blimey. That’s a lot to take in.
All this is the week that I’m in the middle of reading the excellent book iPod, Therefore I Am.





After living in London for the first 33 years of my life and working for the 
So for ten weeks in June, July and August 2009, I drove 20,000 miles around the the lower 48 contiguous states of the USA visiting towns and places that shared the same name as places on The London
iPod, Therefore I Am?
surely,
iBlog, Therefore I Am?
Eeeer, well i’ve been using the “iThink, therefore iBlog” phrase on my website here for ages mate! Where’ve you been? You taking the stupid pills tonight or something?
I guess you haven’t noticed yet that you’ve been book-tagged. Speaking of books you’re currently reading.
Kris also tagged me too! Results on another link on today’s
blog entry.
Damn your purple bar on the right that obscures everyone’s comments when you do a short blog……it is satanicly evil!
Ben.. what does it do then? Can you email me a screenshot? I would dearly love to fix it for you… Tell me what browser you’re using too…
Err Jeesus wept – how many times have I moaned at you about your purple bar and you simply ignore me
Do you also want screen shots of the vanishing rolldown menu?
Whilst your about it, you were supposed to defrag my computer. And upgrade me to Windows 2000…
Anyone else having problems with the new itunes??? First time i installed it, it wouldnt let any of the computers on my network access the internet, even though they could ping to each other. Had to restore to an earlier time, and then itunes wouldnt work. Now i can’t get any version to install properly, and am desperately scanning the apple support forums
Just squeeze your browser down to a smaller than full window size and look at this blog entry. It does it in IE, and it does it in the almighty panacea that is firefox.
Geoff – as you work for the BBC you must be able to blag some decent stuff. What are your chances of getting me a ticket for The Oval at the weekend?
Windows 2000 is an upgrade?
And while you are taking blog complaints,
the grammar problem that bothers me in your “All 275″ box has still not been corrected.
Yes, Windows 2000 can still be an upgrade.
If you think that is bad you should see my car – I can give you a series of OS grid references on where you can find various parts.
Geoff, I have small warts on my penis. What can I do?
Ok people, let’s deal with these one at a time!
3. I can see I’ve been book tagged, I get home today (Friday) and will do it at somepoint over the weekend.
8. Strops, vanishing menus only occurs on Firefox/Mozilla variants within the iBlog pages. I’m working on a fix – honest.
9. I thought I’d buy you a new teapot lid instead. Or maybe a new car which doesn’t fall apart every 30 seconds. (Sorry, “in”-joke, there)
10. Mikey have a look at http://www.ilounge.com where lots of people are moaning about iTunes 5.0! I’m going to stick to 4.9 for the time being. I don’t think the new features are that eart-shattering anyway.
12. Rich – what will you do in return for ME though?
13. Kris, I’ve deliberately not corrected and never will now, especially as I know how much it bugs you so.
15. Stop sleeping with prostitutes? Use a condom? Or did you want a cure, as apposed to prevention?
Paul, as an alternative, see here
for step-by-step instructions on how to install Mac OSX on an Intel PC.
Hmm, Kris. I’m not too sure about the technical spec of my computer, but it has a picture of a cuboid cow on the front of the box thing. Will it work?
Geoff – I’ll sponsor you the next time you go round the entire tube network.
Paul, have Geoff help you! He wants to, he knows he wants to.
