Post Your Last Purchase XXIV

What was ur way of getting used to a screenless ipod? I tried very hard to use it but its a pain in the ass with navigating thru podcasts and songs ughh

I'm not the original poster, but I also have an Shuffle. Not sure what you use your shuffle for, but I primarily use mine for workouts and boarding which its perfect for.

Since you can't exactly select the song you want to play, I just have a playlist of songs that I enjoy during workouts. When I go snowboarding, I simply switch up the playlist. May be more work than having a nano or touch, but its smaller and gets the job done. Not to mention it's a lot cheaper item.

Finally after two years of waiting and repeatedly missing their limited production runs in extra-small - I finally snagged an Alpha SL in carbon copy II!!!! Should be here by next week.

That's a nice looking jacket.

Good God, I love Fleetwood Mac. Play them all the time for my students when they are working. They haven't complained too much

Me too! I've been growing into the good 'ol classic rock lately with artists like Fleetwood Mac, Bob Dylan, Cream, Neil Diamond, etc. It's been a fun listening experience.

Thanks! I'm SUPER excited for it to get here. My older brother took my old North Face sabre and I've been performance jacket-less for a long time.

I'll update the shuffle every (second) week with the songs I'd like to hear

But yeah - you have to get used to a screenless iPod (having had iPod Mini 1G,
iPod Nano 1G, iPod Classic 1G and 5G, and - of course, several iPhones)

Django was killer! Could not agree more with your statement about Tarantino! The soundtrack I thought went along very well.

Found a Nexus 4 on eBay for less than what it would have cost here in Canada after taxes. Super happy with it. Still deciding on whether I want to keep it and sell my iPhone or just sell it off. Keeping both phones for now though.

Also got Ghost Armor for the back glass:

iPad Mini and iPhone 5 Equals Galaxy Note 2?!

Just picked up the Note II. I just shut off my iPhone 5, iPad Mini, turned off iMessages and seeing if I can consolidate two devices into one phablet!

Let me know how it goes, I've been wanting a Note 2.

Are these just sleeves?

Yes, they're soft sleeves for iPods with a really nice cotton/wool look and feel. Apple introduced them in 2004 for the iPod line and now they discontinued just a few month ago in late 2012. I've always wanted them for my ipods but couln't really justify the price for the purchase. Now that they're discontinued I felt like I wanted to get them just to keep them, and when I saw them on sale at a local reseller I grabbed them. It was about time since they had them in store since 2004

They fit my iPod Classic perfectly but really surprised me that they work great as sleeves for iPhones too: the 4/4S and all the previous gens fit perfectly, while the iPhone 5 comes out a few millimeters from the top, but yeah, still cool

I traded in a bunch of old books at 2nd and Charles and got this with the store credit. I loved the first game. So far they have changed some stuff, but overall I am enjoying the sequel a lot more than I thought I would.

It'll be comparable. I have an iPad 3 and Note 2. Still love my iPad 3 for better movie viewing/gaming. But the addition of the Note 2 allows me the ability to not have to carry my iPad everywhere all the time. I think you should be okay.

I just did exactly the same thing. Love my Note 2. I was carrying my iPad mini to work every day but now I use the Note 2 for both.

New helmet for autox this year (we have a mid-winter non-scoring 'I need to get my ya-ya's out' event next Saturday). I've been using a closed face Bell M2 for the last 6 years and I am looking forward to an open face helmet for a change.
