i-pod collecting

el.rojo.grande - 2010-09-22 20:27

Hello,

Not really a collector of Walkmans but wondering if i-pod collecting has begun as a hobby. I see Apple has released a new i-pod nano and just curious if any of you Walkman collectors have room in your hearts for the digital successors.
Anyone have pictures of i-pod collections?

But seriously, your inquiry is welcomed and I understand what you're saying. Personally, I prefer the analog stuff, but there are people already collecting I-pods, especially the earlier ones.

Not an I-pod fan myself. I like things with moving parts. I suppose its the engineering of the portable cassette player that interests me most.

If I were honest, I use an iPod every day.

Oh yes I really must just tune into The Archers on BBC Radio 4 long wave with my trusty old 1950s valve powered wireless set. Shame it's portability range is limited only by the length of it's power flex of 3 feet from the wall. Roll Eyes Big Grin

Personally I love the walkman because they are analog and have a micromechanics more interesting than the watches. I do not like the iPod, I only have one in my collection, new in its box, a Sony NW-MS9, to see it close to the walkman. The walkman it's much more beautiful.
