iPod

by JermynToh on 12 May, 2004

For the benefit of some of my friends who recently got their iPods and have been ranting and raving about them.

Saw this on pyrosx‘s Journal:
Forget the $200 iPod bag from Gucci; it’s for cheapskates.

The ultimate iPod accessory is Fendi’s Juke Box, a $1,500 carrying case for transporting multiple iPods.

That’s right: multiple iPods.

The bag, unveiled by the Italian fashion house at a catwalk show in Milan, is a rectangular gilded purse about the size of a bread bin. It is lined with multicolored cloth and incorporates a pocket for holding up to a dozen iPods

“The Juke Box was designed by German designer and iPod fanatic Karl Lagerfeld.

It is based on Lagerfeld’s own iPod carrying case, an antique leather case “monogrammed for some Jazz Age aristocrat,” according to a description by Hamish Bowles, Vogue’s European editor at large.

Lagerfeld uses the case to stow his multiple iPods — a dozen at last count, which translates into around 120,000 tracks”

“Lagerfeld confesses to owning 40 of the devices. Although at first glance the reader may assume he means a single 40-GB iPod, he meant what he said: He has 40 iPods.”

Standard Issue

The Fendi bag looks like a standard issue item for iPOD sales people leh.

Dunno why it just reminds me of people who sells fake branded watches in hawker centers and food courts. ha ha

Haha! And here I was just thinking about getting a simple cloth bag to put my iPod in! I’m happy with just one lah! What would I do with 40 iPods? I can’t even finish loading my one!
