iPod Touch Review

I just recently got a 16gb iPod Touch and I think that it was a great investment. So here is a short little review I wrote up:

Sound Quality
The sound quality is superb, but if you set the volume too high the earphones start making that scratchy noise. I think it might be just because of the earphones because the earphones aren't too good they are pretty cheap. So I would give the sound quality a 9/10

The Structure

I really like the way the iPod Touch is built. I like how the whole screen is touch and how the back is silver and acts like a mirror. I also like the fact that the front is black. One thing I don't like is......ummm......nothing. =) So for the structure I would give it a 10/10

The Features

I like how the iPod Touch can surf the web because i can stay updated with my blog and other things that would need the internet. I also think that being able to watch videos on youtube on such a small media player is extraordinary. It lets me watch magic videos on the go. One thing that I think might be annoying is that if something accidentally presses on the on/off/hold button it would turn on, but something that would make up for it is that after a set amount of minutes (1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 minutes) it goes into lock mode/hold and it is kind of like sleep mode. I also think it is convenient that there is a GPS, the Weather, Notes, a Calendar, Mail, Contacts, Stocks (For a Business Man), a Clock, a Calculator. I also like how there is like a navigation bar on the bottom of the screen so you can go to music, videos, photos, or iTunes. So I would give this a 10/10

Memory

In my opinion since this is a media player i think the memory of 16gb is too small. I could easily fill up the memory just by putting some movies in it, but I also would like to put songs and movies into it, so I think the memory size should be bigger. But now Apple just released a 32gb one, so for a media player I think 32gb is a good amount of memory. For the memory I would give it an 8/10

Battery Life

I think the battery life of the iPod Touch is very good because it lasts for many hours. So I rate it a 10/10

So overall I would rate the iPod Touch a 9.4/10

*If I think of more I will update this page*

I Changed the Colors of the Blog

Dear Readers,

I just, today, changed the colors of this blog. What do you think? Can you guys leave some feedback and tell me what you think of the colors? I thought that the white background was too plain. If you guys don't like the colors I can change them just tell me. If you want to leave some feedback you can just post a comment or you can email me.

Thanks,

Dan and Dave's New Deck?


What will Dan and Dave's New Deck be?

"We've been working close by an award winning designer since October. Apart from that I can't really shed much more light. I will say that they look unbelievably awesome, very different from everything out there.

We'll most likely be printing them on Aristocrat stock which from my experience is the best finish out there." -Dan Buck

The Origin of the name Sybil

Why did Chris Kenner give the cut the name "Sybil"?

Well Chris Kenner named the cut Sybil after a women named Sybil Isabel Dorsett. She is one of the most famous cases of multiple personalities ever. The reason why he named it after her was because of the multiple packs in the cut. There have been several movies about her.
