Miscellaneous Mischief 9/16/2007 5:44:00 PM
I went to the Apple store today to look at the new 3rd generation Nano and Touch Ipods.  These Apple guys are freakin' amazing.  The new Nano is tiny, but has a remarkably nice (but cramped) screen.  At $149 for the 4gig model, it's so cheap I can't think of any serious competition.  In contrast, the Touch has a much larger screen, WIFI, and some other nifty features, but at 399$ for the 16gig model, it's not for the faint of wallet.  For now, I think I'll have to just be happy with my microscopically amazing Shuffle, and first-generation Nano.

Jane and I had our first tango lesson last Tuesday.  It was not as painful as I feared it would be (I suggested that Jane wear steel-toed dance shoes).  That said, I must also note that I left the class newly confident that not only can I not dance, but my ability to walk is somewhat in question.  We're going to miss session #2 since we're flying back to Maryland for Jason's wedding, but hopefully we can catch up in class #3.

- Jane and I liked Ratatouille.
- Superbad was overwhelmingly offensive, but hilarious.
- Cooper Mountain Reserve Pinot Noir is a fan-freakin-tastic wine.
- I shipped Fiddler 2.1.1.1 yesterday.  Fingers crossed, but so far, no complaints. :-)
- Halo 3 goes on sale on 9/25.
- Clint comes up for PuzzleHunt on 10/5.

Eric Apparently, the $200 nano costs Apple about 83$ to build. http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/sep2007/tc20070917_491032.htm
