Mea culpa.
I am weak. I bought an iPod.
As with any sinner, my excuses were solid justifications, legitimate reasons for my deviant behavior. “I have a lot of CDs,” I told myself. “They take up too much space in Tokyo,” I said to the mirror.
And the best one? “I can use it as a portable hard drive for my photos when I travel next year.” I should get that engraved on the back on the iPod, where others have etched such homilies as, “To Boopsie, For Your Birthday, Love Cuddlebug,” and other such saccharine pap.
Gosh, I feel so trendy.
What are you talking about, the iPod is the greatest invention!
I just spent a long time looking through your site. I like it a lot. The black & white photos in particular are cool, like the one of the cable store in Akihabara. Great writing too.
the iPod’s navigation system is amazingly intuitive, but i find that a lot is left to be desired when it comes to functionality and many of the recent “upgrades.”
thanks for the compliments. these days, i’m so impressed when a real reader leaves a comment – the daily volume of spam is intolerable.
keep up the solid band reviews, ken!
