New iPod

I’m on an online shopping frenzy, I’ve been buying stuff online nonstop for a couple of days now, I’m officially addicted. And because if thisI made a purchase at apple.com yesterday. I bought me a 4th gen iPod in red even though my iPod video (classic) is still in great working order. It barely has any scratches even after 2 or more years of use. It’s just a hassle at times being that it’s big and all so I bought a smaller one.

Any way I was as jumpy as a hyena from excitement paying for the iPod online yesterday. Then I get this email today that my stuff has been shipped (Yeay!) So I go back to apple.com (ph) only to find out that the buying price has dropped to Php11,490 from 12,490 (hitting myself). I could have bought more stuff on eBay with the extra thousand, matter ‘o fact I could have bought the wall charger which I decided not to because it was sooo expensive.

It looks like prices haven’t dropped for US buyers though. If you convert the USD prices to Php, you’ll find that they are more or less Php3,000 cheaper if you buy from the US Apple store… actually Php2,000 cheaper now that they’ve coincidentally decided to drop prices RIGHT AFTER I bought mine!

By the way they have a new generation of iPod shuffle that holds up to 1,000 songs. It’s the smallest iPod yet with an added feature of a Voice Over that tells you what song is playing and by who. It also tells you the names of your play list. Price is at only Php4,190 this thing makes a great gift!
