Amazingly Funny iPod Parody
DO NOT VIEW THIS VIDEO UNLESS YOU CAN AFFORD WASTING FIVE MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE LAUGHING!According to this wonderful "special report" on Saturday Night Live with "Steve Jobs," two new iPod product lines were introduced and subsequently became obsolete -- during the interview itself.
The iPod Micro was first introduced, then immediately replaced by the iPod Pequeno, a device as large as your thumbnail that could hold a million songs. Then, the Pequeno was trumped by the iPod Invisa,which holds eight times the number of songs as the previous model, "every photograph every taken" ... and is invisible.
But you can still watch movies on it!
What is the Best Hard Drive Based MP3 Player?
However, the REAL benefit of coming to this page is you can find out my favorite recomendation for the BEST MP3, player out there. Hint it is NOT the iPod, but the Cowon iAudio X5.
iPod Garage November 20, 2005
Dr. Mercola's Comment:Remember, laughter is one of the best things and most natural things you can do to boost your health. And, no joke, some wiseacre already tried to place an order at the Apple Store Web site for the Invisa. Apple's reply: The Invisa had been discontinued too!
While I have enormous respect for Apple and Steve Jobs I want to make it clear I am no fan of the iPod. I purchased one and was seriously disappointed in the digital rights management scheme and the way that the content is catagorized.
I use an MP3 player primarily to
listen to educational audios. So it is very important to me to be able to categorize the content and the Windows file management system of folder and subfolders makes it enormously easy to do so.
My favorite MP3 player is the Cowon iAudio X5 as it has far superior video playback than the new video iPod and it is over 15% lower in price.
Plus it has:
- Better battery life
- Far better sound quality
- Can actually record lectures (without purchasing expensive add ons)very easily, which is a veryimportant feature for me as I am always going to lectures
- You can plug it into your computer without any software and transfer and organize your files onto it.This is an amazing convenience that virtually no talks about.
- Most importantly, it does not have digital rights management so I anything I put on this device is not permanently locked on it.
I like the Cowon iAudio X5 so much that purchased a large number of them for Christmas presents. Amazingly Amazon has the best price for the X5, which is about $50 less than the iPod
