while browsing about fry's, i was staring at the iRivier iFP-180 and was like "wow, that is one SWEET mp3 player.

except it doesn't use firewire. usb is too damn slow.

so i wish i had a small (iFP/nomad muvo-sized) 256/512mb mp3 player that used firewire.

i wish i had a bluetooth mouse (that works with the mac. microsoft one doesn't count) so i don't hafta carry around a base station for the mouse (though the kensington pocketmouse wireless comes pretty close)

i wish i had bluetooth earbuds (that fit in your ear, so you could listen to stuff while REALLY BORING THINGS were happening around you, though i'd probably lose them)

and this:



why'd i call it the t72? 72 was the arbitrary number i made up. yes i realize the t72 is a russian tank.

its pretty much based off the t68i.

why a roller ball instead of the joystick currently on the t68i? cause its IMPOSSIBLE TO USE. trying to click down usually makes it go one of the directions instead. sonyericsson really screwed up.

and yes, i realize i'm a crappy artist.

ps. if anyone knows any execs at samsung, nokia, motorola, or sonyericsson, feel free to forward that picture along

you're right, you are a crappy artist

yes those iRiver iFP series are pretty cool, but they need to add Firewire and expandable memory (SD or Memory Stick Duo or something).

Love how you felt you needed to brand it, too funny.
