Gin Rummy

This ipod touch app recently got an update. I saw my wife playing this game, so I started to play it too. I can't believe how fun and addictive it is. Anyways, it is just another game to have fun playing.

I still use my ipod touch everyday for listening to music, but honestly my enthusiasm for this gadget has been reduced. I think it is because it lacks the ability to do things that I later found out after using it.

At one point, I was interested in getting the latest version and go to a 32 or 64 GB, but I don't value it as much as before and think there will be better gadgets to use in the future.

Apple Ipod Touch Speakers

My wife has some great speakers that I can plug in my Apple Ipod Touch. We rented a car that didn't have an mp3 plug so we brought this along and it worked great.

It also recharges the player at the same time. Very cool to bring when you are traveling.

Reformatted my iPod Touch

I tried reformatting my Ipod Touch and it was very easy to do. I was attempting to roll back the firmware update so I could try to use this TV output wire. Unfortunately, it just removes your data and applications, but it keeps the most up to date o/s so the firmware prevents the fake apple part from working.

This really is a bit annoying. I understand why they do it. They are simply greedy. I like to use usb drives and other attachments on my laptop and netbook, and other companies allow these peripherals to work even though they are not made by the same manufacturer. This apple strategy is a big turn off.

I was looking forward to the Apple Ipad at one point, but after seeing what they have decided to do, I must say there are better alternatives out there.
