Jesus christ. Thank you. You have just proven (this is also directed at the poster right after you), that there is someone on this planet that has a more obsessive compulsive behavior than me.

I am showing these pictures to my wife right after I post this. Great job guys!

Hey good fine. I too have a fondness for iPod lounge, yet I don't visit it enough, just a lazy MacNN I guess

Really great pics though, tell the story rather nicely. I never noticed that the very top of the Original iPod was white plastic as opposed to the chrome, learn something new everyday.

jonasmac · May 7, 2003, 12:19 AM

Grrrrreeeeaaaatttt.....

Now I want one too. I was looking to buy an older version, but now....

3rd gen iPods are not yet available on Guam, and won't be for a few months!!!!

The old 10gb sold for $499 here. Not good. I need to get somebody from the US Mainland to send me one.

Er, I want one.

Really.

i personally *love* my new 15gig ipod. it goes everywhere with me. i had a 4 hour break between final exams today, and i was sitting around studying with some friends. i showed a friend and two questions and one minute later she was an ipod junky.

the ipod is amazing!

dettociao · May 7, 2003, 07:10 PM

This is a bad bad thread. All it makes me want to do is go buy a new iPod. Specially with those high-res pics Assassyn posted

rustyclockwork · May 7, 2003, 07:30 PM

I have one of the coolest friends in the world.... She wanted me to set her up with a nice computer system... she is a forensic nurse, and I told her to get a 12" power book... so she ordered it, and two iPod 15 gigers.

one for her and one for me!

she's so cool... and beautiful.

my other pals are mad that I put her up to getting a mac, I told them that I knew I would be "tech support" so I wanted her to get a system that doesn't lock up or break down.

i just bought an old skool 20 gigger. the wife is going to freak out. i just cant take it anymore. my tunes will no longer be confined to my desk.

dfiler · May 8, 2003, 12:24 PM

Evil!

Before this thread, I was content with lugging CDs around. Now I lust after one of these electro-jewelery-esque iPods.

I mean, Damn! Those are shiny. Once again I find myself obsessing over lickable electronics.

xi_hyperon · May 8, 2003, 02:22 PM

When will my iPod order status change from "open" to complete!?

Very cool picks. Helps alleviate the buyer's remorse I usually get from my impulse purchases.

mdc · May 8, 2003, 02:31 PM

i wonder what % of the new ipod purchases were impulse buys?

i have been waiting for the new ipod, but i also had been sitting for a long while wondering if i should click on the place order button. and then just clicked and it was done, and i had a new ipod on the way and $400 less in my bank account.

but i do not regret the descision, i love my ipod.

anyone else?

Yep, that's the problem... it's just too easy to do. Click a button and a few days later you get a present in the mail.

i want one.. and everytime i see these photos of them, i want them more.. but the almighty dollar and the lack of them in my account prevents me from buying one. Why do I have no money... it was that damn PB17....

life is full of sacrifices....

I don't suppose anyone has a pic of a new iPod playing Parachute, do you?

I'm buying one no matter what, I'm just curious what it's like.

you turn the scroll wheen to move your turrent and press the select button to shoot. you have to shoot the parachuters and their helicopters.

The Ginger Rat · May 10, 2003, 10:55 PM

Man, do those buttons really light up like that? Too cool.

I too cannot get over how thin the new Pods are. Make the originals look chunky.

Yep, yep!!! I've still got the actual game cart., but about 3 years back my Atari blew up.

Literally, it started smoking while I was playing "Pitfall"...such a sad day.
