i have an ipod touch 4th gen also

but i really suffer from ipone/ipad envy.

tbh the only apps i ever use are Triple Town/Gauge/Kindle/IMDB & a couple of atronomy apps.
the browser, triple town & music are what i spend most of my time on, in that order.
things that you can get w/p much any half decent smartphone these days, yea, but i do still prefer the design of apple's products to anything similar i've tried. the ipod itself feels ridiculously nicer than my blackberry or my sisters htc or whatever. but i resent having to pay so much per month for an iphone. so if i could stop spending money i'd buy an ipad at some stage..

edit: & itunes can be useful. i mean i've bought like 5 things on it & been an ipod owner for like 8/9yrs now. if there's a song you really want, or something you need for a special occasion, it saves you fighting thru your collection or having to go out & buy it new. it's useful for shorthand things like that. i still add stuff from cd's & generally stuff i steal.

edit: Triple Town is the one of the most addictive games ever. be warned

meh

never really cared for Sea Change tbh. never hooked me the way other great break-up records did - specifically Blood on the Tracks/Heartbreaker etc.

Didn't Sinead say about taking Axl home for a bowl of soup?
Yea that'd have been a good one, back in the day. Sinead's gone a bit karaoke lately whenever I've seen her on Irish tv & Axl can't make it w/o auto-tune so.. Moment prob past, but two great voices & fun characters..

yea both those albums are good, & so is this new one. however they're not good enough.

imo L&T was his last brilliant LP & TOOM is one of his best ever, Oh Mercy's somehwere in between.

i'm a little disappointed in that he seems settled in his character/persona & is treading the same water as the last decade plus.
