It heard me plotting…

Recall I mentioned my iPod playing silly buggers? Well it heard me plotting it’s demise. from somewhere in the back of the drawer I flung it in in disgust, the evil little electrobject sulked for months, giving me the “Firewire” message.

I tried to use my iPhone as a replacement, but quite frankly, iPod touch and iPhones are rubbish for the “jam in a pocket and squizz past tracks” method of operation.

So, My birthdays coming up.

aha, I thought. An iPod Classic – not an unreasonable request with suficient eye battering. so I got dysPod out of the drawer and charged it, intending to demonstrate its malfeasance.

It worked.

Powered on. Powered off. Paused. Everything. and no more insubordinate messages.

How DARE it.

I mean… the battery life is down to an hour or so due to the endless use, but… thats a £10 fix.  Which I should probably get round to.

and While I’m at it, I’ll fix the original monkeypod, the old 2g 10Gig one.WOE
