If you’re a Baby Boomer, you’ll know if you are one, your life is full. Busy is a word we use often. Your lives are busy with family, work, chores and errands. Frantic, might be a better description. It’s called life in the fast lane.
Baby Boomers want to have it all, and get it all done now, if not sooner. Have you taken notice of what you are doing? Why you are so busy? Are you sitting in the doctor’s waiting room? Are you stuck in traffic? Do you spend time on your lunch hour doing busy work for your boss?
With a new iPod, you can fill those lost minutes and hours with guilt free time spent on yourself. The New York Times can be read to you each day.
You can listen to the latest bestseller listed in Oprah’s book club. Music without commercials is available anytime. The latest podcasts are accessible anywhere.
Baby Boomers might think that the iPod technology is too advanced or may only be for the teen scene. The concept, that Baby Boomers are slow to get with the times, can be pervasive. Portable Mp3 players are easy to use. If you have a computer and a high-speed connection, you will have your digital player ready in no time.
If you love to cook, why not listen to your favorite author’s latest while waiting for the pasta water to boil? Have an inspirational podcast ready when you are stuck in traffic. Why not listen to your favorite tunes at work? Tons of options are available for you who can get past the technology paralysis.
If you wish you had more time to read, this is your answer. Do something for yourself, without feeling the guilt. You can cook dinner, clean up the dishes and get a load of laundry started, all while getting in another chapter of the newest mystery. You can charge up your Mp3 player every night, at the same time it is loading with the latest podcasts. This process only takes about an hour and then it’s ready to go.
Do you have someone that is visually impaired in your life? An iPod would be a fantastic gift. The best would be one you loaded up with hours of books, music and podcasts. This would be a gift that would last a long time. How about loading it with more goodies every year? I paid a neighborhood teen to find tons of things online and then download them to my father-in-law’s player. I plan to do the same for many years on his birthday. What a treat for for an active Baby Boomer!
Don’t let this technology pass you by. You can do it!

According to various industry sources, it appears as if the new iPods are selling incredibly well. Indeed, many skeptics doubted whether the Apple’s new iPod video would be an instant success due to a lack of significant content and the fact that the video isn’t as high of quality as it probably could be. However, despite these potential drawbacks, early reports indicate that Apple is going to be seeing more profits than ever now that the new video iPod has hit the shelves.
The 5th Generation Apple iPod is definitely pushing technological boundaries by combining video capabilities into the mp3 world. Future success was undoubted, but such quick success was indeed looked upon as being not as likely. However, analysts report positively for Apple. “In our recent proprietary checks with industry and channel sources, we believe sales of 5G iPods are coming in ahead of expectations,” American Technology Research analyst Shaw Wu said in a research note. “In some cases, in Apple’s own channels, including its physical stores and online store, we believe 5G iPods are surprisingly outselling even the very popular iPod nano.”
Businessweek has also pointed out that in most cases there is a 5-7 day delay in fulfilling the orders of the 5th Generation Apple iPod due to a constraint in supplies. Apparently, Apple is looking for a second supplier of LCD screens to relieve this constraint and get more iPods onto store shelves.

Everyone knows that Apple owns the mp3 business. Their genius little iPod device has consumers worldwide spinning with each new release due to a plethora of features packed into pure quality. Due to this, it is only natural that analysts would make predictions as to what the next big move by Apple might be for its iPod line of products. However, this prediction definitely comes at a surprise.
Munster, a leading analyst, said that within five years, Apple could release an iPod with one terabyte of storage – that’s almost 17 times the maximum amount of iPod storage Apple currently offers. Munster realistically images an iPod device that can store literally hundreds of full length, high quality videos on top of songs and pictures. A price range for this beast? It is currently predicted to be around $500.
Other speculatory items include things such as an iPhone, which would basically be an iPod cell phone. Indeed, this option is a very feasible one, one that Apple is expected to take due to its interest in expanding into the mobile phone market. More Mac programs expanding the use of the iPod and other peripherals for it are also expected.
Needless to say, the future of the iPod looks like a bright one indeed. There is really only one way that it appears it can head from here, up.
