    That's a nice pair of shoes...What brand is it?

    Wow, buying a iTouch because you can't get a iPhone...can't you import from US or something?

    Five bucks says that the iPod touch breaks within a week... :lol:

    Shiny.

    Can't say I agree with your choice in footwear though. Laces > no laces.

    bmunch: They're Vans and Can't Get Rich, laces are overrated :D

    Nice idea about the white board, not so sure about the mental image you snuck in there with the uh....footwear. :razz:

    I bought one on Friday. Love it to death. I've posted on it and everything already. Love my new iPod Touch.

    Nice one Mr Moo.

    You will love the iPhone when it comes out in Ireland if you like the iPod Touch :mrgreen:

    PS Nice Shoes :lol: Just don't go starting any fashion advice blogs :twisted:

    Agreed, laces are overrated, but I still stick with them for no reason :)

    Anyways, you could've asked me to get you a iPhone here in US and I could've shipped it to you :)

    I have also just got myself a shiny new iPod touch (getting ready to give one away on MEW :wink: ) and successfully jail-broken it and added iPhone Apps. Check out my blog for working instructions :twisted: also don't forget to add "http://repo.us.to" to the installer sources to make all the iPhone Apps easy to install.

    I agree with Cow on the no laces. Living in Japan where unless you're outside it's a predominantly shoes off country it's a ball ached to be doing up and undoing shoes all day.

    no laces are great. nice shoes!

    Love the Vans, could careless about the apple thing.
    I hope you got real skater vans from a distributor (like a skate shop) and not the thin, cheap ones sold at retail stores. There really is a difference, and the Vans company knows this. They sell the cheap ones for posing kids for fashion, and the true ones to real skaters who need the pillow.
    ramble ramble...

    I love my iPod Touch. The 16GB limitation doesn't matter to me either since my music fits on it fine. The problem is all the video podcasts and other videos I watch don't always fit. I have about 3GB free on mine for video. For you readers, I was one of the lucky winners from the Million Euro Wiki.

    Who needs laces? I wear flip flops to work.
  • Zach · 2 years ago
    The Vans are awesome! I have a pair now. :smile: I have to agree laces are a pain.

    I am still saving for a Mac which you have already own it proudly. I do have an iPod Nano but it is a bit outdated so a Touch will be something great to be added to my inventory as well! :mrgreen:

    i used to own five pairs of vans back when i was a skaterboy. as far as the ipod. i really think its a waste of money. only 16 gigs. can't even fit 20 movies. id rather buy the new asus 7 inch laptop with my $400 and a cheap sansa

    Bloggernoob: If you encode with H.264, a 700mb Avi turns into about 200mb and the quality is great. So that's about 80 movies...
  • ajacx · 2 years ago
    what is h264 ? is it a software?
  • iamned · 2 years ago
    Nice gear.

    "Bloggernoob: If you encode with H.264, a 700mb Avi turns into about 200mb and the quality is great. So that’s about 80 movies"

    i think i'll check out the encoder. only thing tho. how long does it take to encode. i hate the lenghty wait. almost not worth getting any type of pmp.

    Bloggernoob, We use iSquint for the Mac. Does the job pretty fast, but we queue up the movies to convert overnight anyway.
