Apple 8 GB iPod touch

Apple 8 GB iPod touch
From Apple Computer

With the Apple iPod touch, Apple has married the iPhone’s revolutionary multi-touch interface to their popular digital media player. So instead of a Click Wheel, you just use your fingers to flick through your music, photos, and video. Two fingers can be used in a pinching or spreading motion as well, which zooms in and out of photos and web pages. That’s right, the iPod touch is the first iPod to offer web access. It does this via built-in Wi-Fi support. There’s even a special iTunes Wi-Fi Store, so you can browse and purchase new music and video while you’re on the road. Connects to a PC or Mac through USB (using the dock connector) 802.11b/g Wi-Fi Charge Time - about 3 hours (1.5 hours fast charge to 80% capacity) Audio Support - AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, & 4), Apple Lossless, WAV, & AIFF Photo Support - Syncs iPod-viewable photos in JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, PSD (Mac only), and PNG formats Video Support - H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in. m4v,. mp4, and. mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in. m4v,. mp4, and. mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in. m4v,. mp4, and. mov file formats Unit Dimensions - 4.3 x 2.4 x 0.31 Unit Weight - 4.2 oz.

I’ve bought this Apple 8 GB iPod Touch, and on the first day I knew it’s worth buying :)
Excellent to watch movies on it, small, very thin and weights almost nothing. Touch screen is priceless on this machine :D

  • Compatible with Zune Marketplace for media downloads and subscriptions

I purchased three of these through other retailers for about $100 average. When you take a look at the Apple Competitor (ipod video) that goes for $250 you can really see why this product is getting more and more popular. The first versions really needed updates to the software which I have to say took a while to come out but now that version 2.0 is out and fully tested I really like a lot of the new features. Only think I would really like to see is a more user friendly version of the song library software, and support for flac format. Despite this I still give it 5 stars. 30 GB, Wireless, plays video good sound quality… it’s a winner.

  • Beautifully redesigned, iPod classic features a sleek, new all-metal enclosure
  • 2.5-inch display; measures 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.41 inches (H x W x D), weighs 4.9 ounces

I put off purchasing an Ipod for a long time. I guess that since I had nothing to compare it to, I don’t feel there is anything slow about my Ipod classic, as other reviewers have complained.

I love that you can “shuffle” your entire musical library and just let it play. I found it very easy to learn to use with one exception. Somehow I locked the volume lower than I want it to be, and can’t figure out how to unlock it. It keeps asking for a password, which I must have entered by mistake somehow! I’ll probably have to contact the company to figure out how to adjust my volume back up.

Other than that, I absolutely love not having to schlep CD’s around with me. It’ well worth the price for the convenience. If you are thinking of getting one, just do it!

Friskies Dental Diet for Cats (6.3-lb bag)

Friskies Dental Diet for Cats (6.3-lb bag)
From Friskies

Get your cat to brush at every meal. Remarkably, over 80% of all cats will need dental care in their lifetimes. The special formula and larger kibble in Friskies Dental Diet reduces plaque and tartar buildup by 25%. The chewing action of your cat breaks the kibble into smaller pieces that actually ”brush” away plaque and tartar buildup with every bite.

My cat has very sharp fangs; and he keeps them that way by eating Friskies Dental Diet on a daily basis. I don’t know whether he likes these Friskies because of their spherical shape, or because of their crunchy texture…I asked him, but all he says is, “Meeeeooow.” Maybe he just likes the lovely mint-green bag they come in. Whatever the reason, my finicky feline friend DEMANDS Friskies Dental Diet. Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, the pet stores and supermarkets in my area have all stopped carrying this particular Friskies variety. Thanks to Amazon, I’m able to keep my cat happy. And when he’s happy, I’m happy.

Innova EVO Small Bite Dry Dog Food (28.6-lb Bag)

Innova EVO Small Bite Dry Dog Food (28.6-lb Bag)

From EVO

EVO Dog Small Bites Dry Dog Food formula is based on ground chicken and turkey meat, bones, fat, cartilage and connective tissue. It includes whole, raw fruits and vegetables which contain health promoting phytochemicals and micronutrients. They are the same ingredients you’ve come to expect from our Adult Dry Food, but in smaller kibble sizes for smaller dogs. We understand that it isn’t always possible to feed your pet a raw diet. This is until now. EVO is also a convenient, complete and balanced supplement to a raw feeding program.

I adopted a prison program dog Nov 22, 2006. She is a Lab/Poodle mix. (we won’t go there with “Labradoodle”) When I got her, she was 7 1/2 months old and was considered a light eater. She weighed 37 LB. I took her to the vet in December, 2006 to get the rest of her puppy shots and a micro chip and she had already gained about 6 LB. As an adult dog, she is right around 61-62 LB. She is lean, muscular and quite athletic. I put her on Innova EVO as soon as I adopted her and learned that “light eater” must translate to: she eats with the lights on. For a dog her age and size, she eats around 2 cups a day (1 cup for breakfast and another for dinner). The food might appear to “cost more” but you feed less because there isn’t a bunch of toxic filler in it to make the dog hungry. Ever notice how junk food is yummy but it doesn’t fill you up quite like a nutritious meal? You can equate that to dog food. Most commercial brands have their main ingredient as “corn” and it goes downhill from there. Seriously…when have you seen a pack of carnivores attack a field of corn when they got hungry? This is what dog food is supposed to be…grain free and based on a RAW diet, exactly like the way their ancestral wolves dined. Also…because the dog is eating less quantity and digesting more of its food…you’ll have less waste in the yard.

I no longer fight with her about pill time. If only every problem were this easily solved!
