iPod Happy 5th Anniversary iPod

[MattyMac]

Today's the day that five years ago...our good friend iPod was released. It would be nice to see a sick anniversary edition soon...but very unlikely🙄

...well tomorrow is tuesday.

EDIT: Here is my baby in Mint condition!

Just read the BBC's take on it.

MacRumors even gets a mention. WeezerX80 has been unsurprisingly quiet 😉

Unfortunetly, the comments left for article are not very posetive (i don't mean the ones from 5 years ago).
Its a shame that most people are still, today, stupid enough to believe that iPods still cost doble what Creative players do, force you to buy all your music from iTunes, have 4 hour battery lives, are fragile, lock you into iTunes for the rest of your life, have poor sound quality and do not work with any headphones, except the included ones. 😡 🙁 *sigh*
Some people are so ****ing stupid!

Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY IPOD!!!
My dad had the original iPod, and it still works great! Apart from having 30 minute battery life, but he just ordered a replacement battery, that is supposed to last 20 hours, so it will last a few more years!

Well then, I hope that you bought it a nice iPod accessory as a gift from Apple Store for it's 5th birthday. 😉 😀

Happy Birthday iPod!!! You made me switch 🙂

Me too!

I'm sure he made lots of ppl switch!

Happy Birthday iPod!!! You made me switch 🙂

I had an iPod Mini before I switched, but technically the iPod was not the driving factor behind my conversion because I had prior plans of switching. But its ease of use, beautiful design, and high quality certainly are plausible reasons to help one decide to switch over to using Macs. 🙂

Heres to another 5 years iPod!

Heres to another 5 years iPod!

I can't wait to see what the iPod will look like in 5 years from now😱

Five years.... man, time flies.

I still get a chuckle when I read the forum posts made 5 years ago on macrumors.com during the introduction: https://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=500

Cheers, Rich

p.s. I did a special photo for my "iPod 5th Birthday" blog post: http://www.leggnet.com/2006/10/happy-birthday-ipod.html

That is hilarious. Mean that is a bad riot against the ipod! 😀

The apple store is down now too! Maybe it will have something to do with the 5 year Anniversary....Oh Man that would be AMAZING!

Edit: Nope 🙁
