Itouch Upgrade.

After 2 years of having my Ipod Touch, I finally had an upgrade! Woohoo. For those not familiar anymore with the old Itouch, the first gen didn't have speakers or the applications that the Iphone and the Itouch now have. When some got their Itouch 2 years ago, they had it "Jailbroken" slash used "Jailbreak". Since I was concerned with the warranty and stuff, I didn't bother so I never had those apps that my friends were using and playing. I was pretty satisfied from listening to the music and watching my dose of TV series and movies in my Ipod. I even got the TV connector so I can watch the movies and TV series in the telly since my DVD player was already broken.

Fast forward to the present, since I don't 'travel' to work anymore, no more idle moments stuck in the SLEX traffic, I don't get to use my Ipod that often. I find it very useful only during travels like using it on the plane, or using it to connect to wifi to check mail, facebook and for YM :D Anyway, so just this week, I finally had a software upgrade (Thanks to Weak!).

There are sooooo many applications and games in Itunes available for download. Apple has this very good idea that to be able to log-in to Itunes and download the free apps, you'd have to register and input your credit card details. I am so tempted to buy those $0.99 applications! Since the free ones are just 'trials' and some games only reach certain levels since the free ones are just 'previews' of what you can really play when you purchase, I am left wanting for more :D


Oh and I love the fact that you can update your apps via WiFi or download new games, since we have WiFi in our condo, I just can easily go online and do it :)

Before I used to access Facebook via the Safari browser, now that there's an app for it, it's so much easier and more user-friendly. I just hope that next time I can access Farmville via Itouch :))

Back in college, I had this phase, I used to download ALL sorts of fonts online. I'd do it ALL the time and discover cute and different fonts, now I think I'm in the apps for my Itouch phase :D I haven't even played all of the applications I downloaded :p

Itouch.

In my December post, in my wishlist, I posted my desire(for a lack of a better word) or want, for a new I{Variable}, and I finally got one! We all got an Ipod Touch for free during the Christmas Party. And it wasn't just an 8gb Itouch, it was the 16gb. You can only imagine my utter disappointment when the prizes in the games were Bose Ipod speakers, unknowingly that Ipod Touch will be given anyway, to everyone that is.

After a month of using my new Ipod, I can certainly say that it's a must have gadget! :) And I am devoting this post to the second to the latest 'IT gadget', the first is not an Iphone, it's the new Macbook Air, but I'm probably far from getting that one because it's way too expensive.

Anyway, what I really love in this piece of gadget, is that I'm able to watch movies and TV series. Imagine being able to watch episodes of Gossip Girls anywhere, as a temporary cure for boredom. And the screen, yes it's small, but it's definitely bigger than the Ipod Video's.

It also has WIFI! When you travel, you don't have to bring a laptop to be able to read your emails, or to log on to yahoo messenger to chat with people dear to you, you can just surf and chat through meebo using the Safari in the Ipod. It's small and handy compared to a laptop.

Okay, I didn't probably do much justice on the features of the Itouch, but when you get your hands on it, you'll know it's one hefty gadget. And one day, when I get my hands on the Macbook Air, i'll write another Mac Post :D I know I'm pushing my luck, but I do hope I also get one for free.
