ipod, it seems, has become the “kleenex” of mp3 players. It’s a word that everyone loves to say. They run with their ipod. They walk with their ipod. Now it has a pedometer. You need a car ipod, a an ipod car charger, an ipod car adapter... They download, upload and it’s the ipod. You would never say mp3 player when you can say “ipod.” So, those of us who don’t have one yet must buy one--or convince someone to buy it for us. Christmas is coming!
