The Pizzazzy

This Tuesday I took a leave from office and as planned set out with my mum for shopping. There were quite a few items on my list and the top most was the iTouch followed by some other items. When we reached Funan mall we hit the apple show room and I took a good 30 minutes to go through the features and also gave a good demo to mum.

Now, Mum is that kind who watches lots of news and reads newspapers, familiar with the uses of internet for chat, skype if someone connects her, playing games is as far as she gets when it comes to computers. But after looking at the safari browser connecting to Urjit’s site via the wi fi and his pictures coming up on the wide screen of the iTouch even she was impressed.

Actually I had made up my mind to get this new version after Anand claimed our previous iPod shuffle as his so I was only looking for a good deal. And with Christmas just around the corner I thought I could get a good one. So, when Apple showroom quoted the printed price I simply smiled and left. Finally I made my purchase with some free gifts instead of cash discount.

It was very difficult from the time of purchase till reaching home all the way to Pasir ris with not being able to take a look at this amazing piece. As soon as we reached home, I opened the packing and there came out my new iTouch. I set out to work right away with iTunes and syncing my favourites photos, songs and some videos.

Once it was fully charged I connected to the net using the wi-fi and was watching “Jab We Met” on youTube. The next day I nicely plugged the ear plugs and was smiling at everyone on my way to work. Even during the lunch break in our favourite cafeteria which is wi-fi enabled I was busy with iTouch while my friends who were as usual having our daily gossiping session merged into the background.

I sent an email to my sis saying “Hi I am mailing you from my iTouch” and the good thing she told me today is that more zones in Pune are going to become wi-fi by the time I return to India.

With this new iPod I can connect to the net from any place that is wi-fi, watch videos directly from YouTube, download songs from iTunes, Organize my day and of course listen to my favorite songs with just a Touch. An amazing feature is that the display changes with a flick from vertical to horizontal giving a wider screen. Another very impressive feature is the zoom in zoom out with slide of two fingers. I simply bring together two fingers on the section I want to zoom in and then slide them away. To browse through the whole page I can slide the section left right or flick through. This is amazing while net surfing, reading pdf files and also browsing through picture albums.

The wait for an iPhone was getting too long so here’s iTouch with wider screen and without the phone.

What more can I say apple simply offers the sleekest and most stylish designs when it comes to iPod and iTouch is a touch above the rest.
