Did I mention that iPod is great


I got sent a new MP3 player in the post this week. It's a Samsung T9. It looks nice and I'm going to give it a try. It's part of a project that I signed up for in work as an early adopter.

My initial impressions are not good though.

It was a pain to install. Windows did not recognise it and it does not come with drivers. A gem of thinking there from the people at Redmond who design the Windows Media player I'm afraid.

Then when I got it installed, it uses an interface a bit like iTunes only not as neat and tidy and certainly not as intuitive.

I have the feeling that my iPod bias is going to prevent me from ever truly loving this Samsung device.

I feel like a Mercedes driver being asked to try out a Lexus.
