iPod Touched
Finally, I got going with my iPod Touch, after it sleeping a whole week in its box! I'm even writing this entry with it... quite exceptionally as it's not my input method of choice.
Actually, it's last Wednesday that I received my copy of the dreadful Windows XP, an OEM acquired for ¥6000 on Yahoo! Auctions. The next morning I had iTunes running and I could enjoy my first commute with my new toy!
Since then I've jailbroken it but I have yet to be able to copy files to it, namely the Mail and Maps applications. For some reason I'm unable to connect to the device with either WinSCP or PuTTY, always getting timeout errors. I've tried installing combinations of OpenSSH and Services but the result remains the same. On well, I'm happy listening to music and surfing the web from it! :) It's such a nice and revolutionary machine!
That's it for now.

I was very tempted to get one today ... but 16 GB just does not do it for me ... I have been looking at the Achos 605 wifi instead ,. bigger screen .. better res .. 10 times the HD space .. but not the sleek apple GUI . ah well .. congraats on using your new toy .. (but i bought Ritsu an iPhone .. so .. my tech support skills will give me a chance to play with it)

There seems to be rumors that there will be a 32GB version early next year. The smallish size did make me hesitate a bit. But it's Flash memory and Flash is still expensive for that kind of sizes.
I bet you won't be able to hesitate much longer after having played a bit with Ritsu's iPhone. :)
