It's really awesome, and it gives me a bunch of music, but I wish it had slightly more space. They also come in 16G. Also, music videos would be cool.
Okay, so here are pictures of my type of nano:
Then here's Emma's: (She has the weird blue one in the front of this first picture)
These new iPods being released now come with the weirdest earbuds ever. They're really effective, though.
Then while picture surfing, I came across these other "nanos" that would be unbelievably awesome as well.
God, I'm so greedy.
Moving on...
Benjamin and I share a desktop. It's a samsung monitor, but the console is a mac. I don't know how it works exactly. Benj is always on my neck about spending too much time there (partly just to get me in trouble), and I feel self conscious back to back with mom.
At school, I'm using Dad's old lap top from like 2002. It's clunky and big and slow. I can't watch videos on it. Safari crashes. Downloads don't work. iTunes can't connect. For some reason iPhoto can't open, yet is in the applications folder. It didn't come with word. The scanner and printer drivers don't work.
Blech.
That said, I know how lucky I am, and how rich my life is. I'm not taking this for granted (well maybe a little bit). This is a place for me to be selfish. I am perfectly aware of my benefits.
Technology I want:
iPod 6:
The iPod 6 is a bigger rectangle, like Dad's, only slim and white. It has music, pictures, camera, video, iMovie, and skype, plus more memory. Kind of a non-trashy iPhone without the phone. No stupid games either. Thumbs up! Mainly I would want it for iMovie on the go. $166, I think.
iPod nano 5th generation:
Like the kind Emma has - really cool. I don't feel any particular need to get this, and if I had the iPod6 I wouldn't, but it's smaller and portable with video. Thumbs up in general. (Although, it has been previously noted there are like a bazillion awesome nanos out there. Any one of those would be dreamy.)
Nexus 7:
Unbelievably cool tablet thing! Better than an iPad, because it's smaller. Not sure how that would compare to mini ipad though :). It's just the right size, and it feels cool and private. Many neat apps, and it runs smoothly. Way awesome! Only $200.
(NOTE: Drawback - no front camera, unlike iPad. Good for taking self-pictures, not so good for documenting others)
Lap top:
My ideal lap top would be a MacBook pro. 13 inch I would think, except maybe 15 inch runs faster and has more space? Casey uses a 13 inch, so I'm sure it would be fine. Super epic screen quality, way fast, and newest iMovie and iPhoto and Word. It's primed to use these way epic new picture and video editing programs - Aperture and Final Cut Pro - but you have to pay like $70 to download them. At my level of expertise; not worth it. It's fast, light, and snazzy. I could carry it back and forth and use it for school and home!
