Bye-pod

Forgot to mention previously that this past weekend I sold my iPod, which I won a month or two ago, for an undisclosed sum. I never even opened the thing, and I really just didn't want to get into the whole iPod way of life at this time (if you have an iPod, you know what I mean). I was going to put it on eBay before Christmas as I could have gotten a decent amount for it. But with the various house issues (and subsequent lack of a permanent PC), I didn't get around to posting it. So when it came up in conversation with my dad, who said my brother would want it if I didn't, I figured that was as good a time as any to offload it. I gave my brother a family discount, though, so I didn't get as much as I would have online, but every little bit helps.

Now that it's gone, you might think I'd be regretful, but I am not. I helped my brother get it all setup and learn how to use it, and I can say with all confidence that I'm glad I'm not messing with that for myself. As I already have a low-end MP3 player (a Rio Cali) that does just fine for me, I'm not looking back on this as an error.
