An ode to my iPod video
How do I love my iPod video? Let me count the ways. Seriously, I adore this small piece of technology. It’s nearly 3 years old now — I ordered it the first day it was available — and this 5th generation 30GB iPod video unit is still chugging along and making our lives better.
