I bought a new iPod, well I just bought an iPod because I needed an mp3 player to kill the lonely moments on the train and stuff. I bought one in Media Markt. I saw a new type of iPod, hell did I know that there were new iPod Nano. (So that is about how far my Apple love goes) So I had to phone my best friend Sam (Mac addict numero uno, Jobs if you need a stand-in for your keynotes, he’s the guy!) to ask if they weren’t skamming me off with some phoney-iPod-look-a-like-mp3-player.
In the end I bought the silver one, I actually asked a light gray one, but the guy quickly told me it was a silver one. I wonder if have to write it with a capital S or not… Anyway proud of my 200 dollar investment I was telling everybody that I might turn into a mac geek after all. Big was the disappointment that in only a mear two hours my brand new iPod crashed.
It did nothing, the screen froze, the wheel and buttons didn’t respond anymore, the letters of the menu were messed up. I tried everything resetting it like the manual told me, it didn’t do jack shit. On the internet I found that an alternative way of resetting it is holding center button and menu simultaneously. Luckily it worked than, it was hooked up at my pc and it started and so I was able to reset it completely…
