I Just Got My First MP3 Player
I’m so behind the technology curve some times. I had to be the last person on my block to get a VCR… then a CD player… and now an MP3 player. I got it off of eBay from a Hong Kong Seller. The price was great (they do say, don’t they that you get what you pay for… we’ll see. The seller did have fabulous feedback).
It’s a 4GB touch screen (like an iPhone) player. It’s been charging up for a few hours now… and I’m just about to try downloading songs to it. I hope it won’t blow up!
What’s next for me? A hula hoop? ![]()
