She found a great deal on <a href="http://www.edealinfo.com/">www.edealinfo.com</a> and unfortunately had to have me decide by today whether or not to keep it in order to get the rebate in time. You betcha I'm keeping it :). I may be a first time owner (and user) to an iPod, but I use <a href="http://www.apple.com/itunes/">iTunes</a> for all my MP3s and podcasts. So as soon as I got the iPod drivers installed and restarted iTunes it immediately started downloading all of my songs and videos (podcasts). An hour or so later (yeah, I have a lot of media files) I was in business. Now, I may have never used an iPod (seriously. I've never even tried one), but I can safely say that the people at Apple know what they're doing. It took me a whole 10 seconds to figure it out. Sure, there are plenty of things I'm going to need to learn (features and other benefits), but I'm still amazed at how quickly I was able to start playing my media without having to read a manual. iPod Wed, 14 Dec 2005 07:53:00 -0400 http://www.jeffcoughlin.com/blog/index.cfm/2005/12/14/Joining-the-iPod-Crowd Jeff Coughlin
