Ordered the new iPod shuffle
Wednesday, September 5th, 2007Well, tonight, I ordered the new iPod shuffle in the color lavender. I can’t wait until it arrives, as my old iPod shuffle (1st gen), sadly kept getting corrupted, and requiring a restore/reset for some reason, so I’ve been iPod-less for a while. I do like the new form factor of the new iPod shuffles, as they’re smaller, and they were made 200% better today when they announced new colors, particularly the lavender color, which as it turns out is my favorite color. Anyway, I will report on it when I receive it in a few days. Also, even though today’s iPod shuffle refresh only changed the colors, Apple surprisingly says that the iPod shuffle now requires Mac OS 10.4, instead of only 10.3+ like the previous releases. While I do understand why Apple is slowly dropping 10.3 (including security updates perhaps this or next month), but requiring a new OS just for a cosmetic change? Hmm, anyway…
