Ever since I first saw Steve Jobs show the iPhone to the world, I have been drooling. Bummer that it will not arrive in Europe until November. Yesterday, though, Steve Jobs dropped another bomb. He showed the world the iPod Touch. Yes, it's minus the phone feature of the iPhone but it has one big advantage over the iPhone… it will be available a lot sooner!!! I am a gadget freak. But, unlike true-blue tech geeks who check out the specs and have something to say about technical data, I am more superficial. I like 'em shiny, new and nice. That's my only gadget requirement. And the iPod Touch or the iPhone will definitely be a great travel companion. I am sure that I will definitely grab the iPod Touch once it goes on sale on the 28th of September. I am as sure that once the iPhone becomes available here in Europe, I will be feeling buyer's remorse (for buying the iPod Touch) too soon and would be kicking myself for not waiting for the iPhone. As I said, I am not a true-blue tech geek. So, rather than keep you in awe with my gadget knowhow, I have instead gushed about a product like a girl that I am. Sorry.
