Touched by the iTouch

Well as you can guess from the title this post is dedicated to the mighty ipod touch from the apple corp.
Since i have finished going through the mental trauma of the much hyped engineering entrance examinations, am completely free now.So got a chance to lay my hands on the ipod touch(8gb)...
Well buying it was a real pain in the a**.

To start with, I was supposed to get the touch on 4Th June...asked a friend to bring it from
Dubai since the prices there are less than India..Well so started the journey of my imaginations
and day dreams as it was my first pmp(portable media player)...


4th june-

DAMN....
He was unable to bring it.....

6th june-
After convincing my father what an amazing thing itouch was(It really is check the apple site for that) and getting his approval to buy it from India, I ordered one from Chandigarh.The device is available at planet M and music world but the prices are terribly overpriced(17k)...
After some search found a shop which was willing to sell me itouch for 15.5k which is quite
decent considering the official price of the device being 300$..
I ordered the device...but wait they don't have it in stock...DAMN.....
i was supposed to get the device on 9th...

9th june-
DAMN....(Well if you might be thinking about the extensive use of 'damn',trying to create the effect Chris Tucker made in rush hour series with the unforgettable "damn lee".)
Called the store and they told me that i would get it on 13th....What the heck....
cancelled the order .
Thankfully my aunt was visiting Dubai the same week(Don't know why suddenly every one's going to Dubai...).

10th june-
YEAH....

My aunt bought the itouch (with the price tag of 13000) ....Now no one can stop me from getting the itouch...

14june-
YEAH

The touch is finally here ......
I opened the box just like a small kid,exploring the Pandora box.
there it lie the .8cm thick itouch with a massive 3.5inch LCD and shining aluminium back in its full glory....
 



WELL I GUESS ITS TRUE THAT BEST THINGS ARE OFTEN HARDEST TO REACH...
