I want a nano, part 2The other day, I wrote about
how much I want an iPod nano. Well, yesterday I got to touch one, and it was even tinier and cuter than I had dreamed.
Earlier tonight, I was chatting with my cab driver about what it's like living in L.A. without a car, and at one point, I said, "I know I'll get one eventually, but there are just other things I'd rather spend my money on right now." At that very moment, I looked out the window and saw a giant billboard for the iPod nano. The timing was just a little too freaky. I think the technology gods are speaking to me.
And I am listening.
Update: While waiting for Blogger to post this (it seems to be having some problems tonight), I was reading the NY Times site in another window and came across
this article about how no one can resist the nano's power.
Beware, however: to see one is to want one. If you hope to resist, lash your credit card to your wallet like Odysseus to the mast.
Sounds like hyperbole? Uh uh. It's true. That article also includes a video showing a few alternate uses for the nano. Anybody need a $250 bookmark?
I can feel the money sucking out of my bank account as I type...
