Another One Bites The Dust

About 2 years ago, I got an iPod just like this one...


I had hundreds of songs loaded on this baby and I loved it. It literally took hours and hours to load all of those songs but it was worth it. I had such a variety and enjoyed listening to them while walking or in the car.

Then, out of the blue it died. We couldn't even get enough of a charge to transfer the songs onto my new computer so that we could put them on a new iPod. I was bummed but what can you do about it. We had our Hawaii trip planned and I knew I'd be doing alot of walking so I went to Costco and got this one. Still an iPod Nano but a newer generation...


Well, of course, every time you get anything new or any kind of an upgrade, none of the old accessories work on the new one! Surprise surprise, the new iPod was wider of course and therefore wouldn't fit into my old armband that I use when walking. We all know it's a ploy for these companies to make the consumer spend more money and it drives me bonkers! Sooo, that meant I had to buy another one of these too....


Ok, so are you still with me!?!

Now since my new iPod only had the 15 or so songs loaded on it that I bought from iTunes, hubby was going to start downloading some of the CD's onto it. Well, son of a gun, nothing, nada, zippo! Again, wouldn't charge up a bit!

I only bought the thing 3 months ago so hubby headed to Costco this morning and came home with this...


Oh my gosh, now with the armband thing again!!

Obviously, again, this iPod is much wider. Can anyone use an armband for the iPod Nano? I've got one I won't be using!

Hopefully the 3rd time will be a charm! Wish me luck! By the way, the iPod Touch can hold up to 14,000 songs. This otta keep my husband busy for days!
