Thus, in order<BR>> to use an IPOD otherwise called an MP3 player, you must first be able to<BR>> download music (need computer). These devices essentially replace the<BR>> 'Walkman' of years past which used either cassette tapes or CD's.<BR>> <BR>> These MP3 players can be loaded with hundreds or a thousand songs and<BR>> "scanned" through to get to what you want to hear. The "playlist" is<BR>> changeable at your leisure and I'm sure there are like a million songs<BR>> available for download. The devices are also typically small and thin,<BR>> which fit in pockets and such. Interesting though is that some company<BR>> developed a "song" which actually vibrates the IPOD too.... :) <BR>> <BR>> Thanks,<BR>> Jim W.<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and proprietary information.
