Nano Nano">Nano Nano
I got the phat (and fat) new nano last week. I ordered it the day it came out. I came clean to Suzy on it the same day. I thought about the iPod Touch and the iPod Classic, but cost and size really won me over. I love how it fits in the palm of my hand, which makes it ultra-portable — and that it plays video, which is the feature I really really wanted.
I have lofty goals of supplying Logan with hours of educational video (read: cartoons) when we go on longer drives which would free Suzy and me to maybe NOT have to listen to the same 21 Wiggles songs I downloaded two years ago. We love singing with Logan, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes it’s nice to have a conversation that doesn’t have “What are you doing?” on constant repeat from the blonde squakbox in the backseat.
Suzy did urge me to return it once I received it… but I didn’t. Now that it’s been disclosed that the nano is staying, I feel more comfortable sharing this information with you. And for those of you who think me irresponsible (don’t think I don’t know who you are), I *could* have bought the iPhone at $599. I *could* have bought it two weeks ago at $399 and paid $200 to cancel my t-mobile contract and waste the $100 I just had to spend on replacing my phone. I *could* have spent more money on the iPod Touch or the Classic.
Sure, I spent about $200 on this thing, but it is useful. And sooooo shiny. Besides, Yom Kippur is just days away and I can wash away any guilt by apologizing for it three times. Kinda like confession 
Aaron’s conscious on both shoulders: C’mon you cheap ass…you know you want an iPod Touch…you know you want it…just click submit…click it…click it…
Only an error in Apple’s shopping cart application caused them to ship the wrong thing to you. I like the way you play it off like you meant to order the Nano. Good one. Ha.
I’ve begun my Bongo Room pancake countdown, by the way…
Rev 2 iPhone…. Rev 2 iPhone…. this is what I keep repeating to myself to talk me down from that ledge. That and the pacification from being able to watch music videos, news and Strongbad Emails on the way home from work.
BTW, Chocolate Thunder Mountain French Toast was in that picture — and it was so good that Suzy didn’t even wait until the next morning and ate all my leftovers (you’d have a mangasm over all the marscopane and bittersweet chocolate and banana creme brule). She had the BLT Benedict, and it was just awesomely good.
I’m definitely with you on the iPhone. I have AT&T now, but I just go my current phone back in May, so I’m going to wait until my upgrade is available. Apple may even be at Rev 3 by then…and at rev 3 pricing.
I can’t wait. I was playing soccer when I received that photo. I decided to start working out even harder to prepare for the 10,000 calories of deliciousness that I’m about to encounter. Ha.
And that’s just breakfast dude. You guys need to let me know what you want for dinner on Friday. Pizza, Thai or something else?
Like Hoover says, you gotta have a strat.
