Well, I finally did it! I got my own ipod touch =D
This decision took more than 6months because initially, I wanted an Sony PS-505 or e-reader device which cost USD299. I love reading books (English version please!) and living in Taiwan the prices does not come cheap. If not for the price concern, at times they don’t import that book! Imagine, im still waiting to get my hands on the story book feature in Harry Potter movie.
When I told my fiancee, he says go for the ipod touch but I know it has different reading experience with the ebook. So going back and forth for the past 6months (with me reading ebook over the computer, it really makes my eyes super dry and tired the next day), yesterday I finally bought it!
why so long? Ipod touch can play games, listen to music, watch movie, surf the net while the sony? well, just read books and play music.
What I love when I got it is the smell =D haha The brand new smell of ipod.. sigh… smells like the post-it when you just open a new one! This touch sure cost me because I was making long distance call to my fiancee and asking if I should get it or go for the HTC phone + pda. Of course, price is a big factor because I don’t have that much budget. Once decided, I called again to ask if I should go for the 8GB or the 16GB.. so finally settled on the 8GB.
Well, it took me the whole night going back and forth from www.fictionwise.com to finally got it going. I nearly give up because I use the wifi feature but can’t seem to download my books… I felt so stupid I did not figure it out in the first place, but glad I thought of it and kaching! (sound of cash register) it work!!!!
How did I get it work? Oh… please go to my Ipod page and I will write in details what I did… hope this will be a more user friendly than the one I read in fictionwise…
