Saturday 9/26/09 - JDPNYY's Question of the day:




What kind of small, portable MP3 (or similar) device do you have (if any)?
Give Details.

[Jeter Kid]

iPod Nano 2nd generation. I'll probably pick up one of those new Touches soon because this Nano is going to die soon.

[Bozidar]

None. I used to use my Verizon phone for this, but it has passed on.

I am begining a new walking program and am looking to get a new iPod type device where i can store all my music on there.

Whatever advice folks can offer for MP3 devices or iPods specifically would be much appreciated. I wont be running or biking, climbing rocks, or driving on rugged terrain in my small SUV -- just walking. If that

[TheYankee]

Don't have one.

[CoyoteYankee]

Black iPod nano. Doesn't have all the fancy bells and whistles but it has my music which is all I need.

[BonusCantos]

iPod shuffle, which was a Christmas present (wasn't on my list). I haven't used it in a long time now.

[spyglass]

I have the silver iPod classic and a purple iPod shuffle. I use the classic most of the time, but the shuffle when I'm working out/at the gym.

I also still have my old discman that I really should get rid of at this point. I'm not even sure it still works.

[MunsonNY15]

I have two. My main one is an iRiver. I use that for my day to day listening and podcast downloads. The other is a Sandisk that is loaded with a compilation of my favorite stuff. About two years ago I broke the face so I can no longer see the screen to select a particular song. But it is on shuffle, so I can still use it, I just never know what song is coming on next. Not a bad thing though, since all the songs are ones I like.

Heidi

[jlw1980]

I don't own one. My husband has a Zune, and he likes it.

[Ram Man]

Original iPod shuffle that I won as a door prize.

[JL25and3]

iPod classic, 120 GB. Big enough for all my CDs (so far).

I still have my old 20 GB iPod as well, but I don't have much reason to use it anymore.

[yankeeschic12324]

I have a first generation 16gig iPod touch. And it rocks.

[Trish]

Sadness. I don't have one. I want one.

[jlw1980]

Sadness. I don't have one. I want one.

So do I.

[DEADSOX]

I have a John Lester.

[BxBomber44]

I have a normal size ipod video and got an ipod nano when I bought my computer (Student promo deal). I have 15,845 songs on my ipod and my most played song is Please Forgive Me - David Gray and there are 173 songs I have yet to listen to.


I also have on audiobook on there.

[patrick.o]

Some sort of iPod. When it was new it was really small, now, not so much.

[Stupid Flanders]

I have an iPhone. Yes I know this won't win post of the day but it's the best I can do.

[fredgmuggs]

iRiver. I try my best to avoid purchasing any products from Apple. Fight the man, don't be a sheep.

[johnnyyankee]

If this question is referring to some kind of dedicated music playing device, I don't have one. I do have a cell phone that is capable of storing and playing music.....I think.

[DontHateOnNumber2]

I have some cheap mp3 player that I use when I go to the gym. No idea what brand it is, but it's good at drowning out all of the terrible music my gym pumps through their speakers.

[RhodyYanksFan]

30 gig black 1st gen video ipod. I'm campaigning for the 64gig ipod touch for Christmas.

[LDG]

I, too have the black 30GB iPod video with1024 songs, 3 videos and 7 photos on it.

27.8GB available memory, 22.7 GB used.

Hmmm, does the iPod really need 2.2GB all to itself?

[GiambiRocks]

We are a Zune family. We own 3 and we love them. We've had zero problems with them.

[Trish]

My phone does too, but I don't know how

[Mantle'sMutt]

The term MP3 should refer only to an otherwise unnamed third Military Policeman in movie credits.

1024 songs takes up 22 gigs? Mine has 4872 songs, 1 video and 45 photos on it and I have 1 GB left.

[smr15]

I got nuthin'.

[DrNick]

Creative Zen Vision M 30 GB...love it

[theDurk]

Ancient Creative Zen Xtra Nomad Jukebox 20 Gb (more names than a Uruguyan) in the car, and a Sandisk e260 for pocket, briefcase, etc. Basically I give new ones to the kids, who are 18-30, and then I get the old ones that are displaced but still working. They are now on Samsung Touch P2's. Anything but stinkin' overpriced iPod's.

[Sam18]

I've had a 1st gen nano for 2.5 years now which a friend won in a poker match and sold to me. I've stopped using it for the past month or so.

[Gringaloca]

I have an older Sandisk that the Hubs got from some training seminar he attended 2 years ago.
It was working fine..but I didn't use it for 3 or 4 months & now only half the songs stored will play...

[WashingtonYankee]

I have none.

[LDG]

1024 songs takes up 22 gigs? Mine has 4872 songs, 1 video and 45 photos on it and I have 1 GB left.

I meant to say that the iPod has 27GB of memory to offer and I still have 22GB free.

Too much beer in Munich, I guess.

[Toaderly]

I don't know how many GB's it has but it's sort of heavy.

[4bronxbombers]

My phone does too, but I don't know how

Me too.

Jeez, from that angle even the el car is smaller. I say it holds at least a gig.

Heidi

[Hitman23]

I have a Creative Labs Zen touch. It's lasted me over 4 years and I'm pretty happy about it. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles and isn't even color but it holds 10K songs and plays music and that's all I wanted.

Time for an upgrade though I think it's starting to go. It's more than paid for itself over the years.

Nada. The only portable electronics device I have is a Blackberry.

[allybear]

Saturday 9/26/09 - JDPNYY's Question of the day:

IPod Classic - it used to be JP's but he got an IPhone and my IPod stopped working, so JP gave me his.

Oh, and it's white and silver, so I got a pink case for it - my old one was black and silver.

[Trish]

Nada. The only portable electronics device I have is a Blackberry.

What's your number?

[BxBomber44]

What's your number?

Don't you mean, what's your pin?

[Trish]

Don't you mean, what's your pin?

I have no idea.

[JDPNYY]

My answer:
I have an IPOD Clasic 30 GB, 2123 songs (most of which no one has ever heard of), which played from start to end would take 238 hours. The longest song is 55 minutes. I've used up 14.66 of the 30 gigs.

I'm quite surprised by the amount of people that don't have one of these devices.
