Since my iPod got run over by a bus, I’ve been living in the semi-dark ages. Everytime I looked at my broken iPod I would almost get depressed. Well, almost. My iPod actually worked (even after a bus went over it) but the screen was cracked so it was pot luck on hearing music plus you had to skip through many songs to get to the one you wanted. It was all a dream gone horribly wrong. Eventually it stopped working and I relegated it to a small carboard box stowed away in a cupboard somewhere and forgot about it. Oh the humanity…
The other day I found it again and it all came back to me…
However, I looked for screen replacements again and found one on eBay for 16€ with postage from the UK! Amazing! I changed the screen myself and bent the silver back plate back into shape and presto, a working iPod again! Woohoo!!!!!
Since I’ve been putting as much of my music as possible into FLAC format, I decided to put Rockbox on my iPod to give it a go. Its really impressive and supports loads of weird and wonderfull formats out of the box, including ISO. Amazing. Also it has really nice themes and you can make your own theme with your own images and all. Definately amazing. I’ve got the Flying Spaghetti Monster theme on it at the moment
So I’m back to having portable music again and this time in full CD quality, and beyond!
