As I mentioned earlier in the week, I lost my iPod recently. I’d been wanting to buy a flash mp3 player for a while, since the hard drive doesn’t like it so much when you go for a run or something and shake it up. Since I’m still eagerly waiting for the next cool big iPod thing, I decided I’d get my Nano now. So I went online to the Apple website and purchased my iPod on Monday.
I just checked the package tracking and saw this as the tracking history:
Ladeeda, normal stuff, I’m thinking. But wait. “Int’l shipping release”. Um. Where’s Shenzen, CN again? Um. China? Oh.
That’s right, they ship it from China directly to an individual customer. That seems like it wouldn’t be all that cost effective to me. I’m sure glad the shipping was free, I’ll tell you that!
Anyway, it should arrive by the end of the week and I’ll no longer have to carry around this silly piles of discs to have enough music to last me through the day. I’m very much looking forward to it!
