Why not get a Zen instead? It's not crap!

Since I'm a Hindu & I dunno, can u'll please tell me what the significance of Boxing Day? What do u'll do on that day?

Go and beat each other up, of course! :D

From Wikipedia:
"Boxing Day is the day after Christmas, a public holiday in most countries in The Commonwealth. It originated as a day for giving gifts to employees and poor people. It has sporting traditions, especially fox hunting and the famous boxing day round in the English Premier League, and is the day when stores launch the most significant sales period in the retail cycle.

It is usually celebrated on 26 December, the day after Christmas Day, but can move to 27 December or 28 December if 26 December is a Saturday or Sunday. The movement of Boxing Day varies between countries.

The public holiday is recognised in the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, as well as many other members of the Commonwealth of Nations."

I never said it was crap. I don't even know what it is.
Edit: Try not to use Wiki. Unless there's a lock sign or a star in the top right had corner of the page, then it probably's messed about because anyone can join. Which is why there's a new Google wikipedia that going to come out, that has articles that are made by professionals.

I was implying that iPods are crap...

A study published in Nature found that the Encyclopaedia Britannica has as many errors per article, on average, as Wikipedia, and Wikipedia has something like a hundred times as many articles. Linky
Plus, all Wikipedia articles should provide sources (and are tagged for correction if they don't) and you can always check those.
Besides, just cos one moron can edit something doesn't mean there's not another hundred people watching the article because it's their personal pet to correct any errors...

Oh, and Google are clearly trying to undercut Wikipedia for the ad money that'll be on their "better" version...

Not crap. Apple just thinks because they have a monopoly they can price their things at whatever pleasurable. So the ratio for price and quality is very outdistanced, despite its good quality.

As for Wikipedia, I like using it. But one: the article says Wikipedia still has 1/3 more, though I like it and not Britannia, and two: some idiot had complained and said I played with my "privaledges" so I couldn't see certain articles, one of which I needed for my report. Still, the web's faster then a 1000 page hardcover book with a font 1 for their words.

Google will only get stiffs, not smart people that at least have writing style that (i.e wikipedia) some others have. And with so little pros, they'll never get to over 2 million articles.

They're expensive, they do their very best to force you to use iTunes (which is truly a shocking piece of code on PC), they *still* have battery problems after all this time, they're unreliable, they don't play as many file formats as they should (to be fair this criticism goes for most mp3 players...)...

One: ooh, 1/3 more. Negligible. Point is it's still most definitely in the same accuracy standings as the professionally written and edited (and highly respected) Britannica.
Two: Abwuh?

The iPod has it's advantages.

Such as...?

Uh...more battery time?
And the shuffle is "random". I bet Random would like that.

The rated battery life for my Zen is longer than the rated battery life for the iPod Touch as a quick comparison, and like I mentioned earlier there are still problems with iPods suffering extremely rapid battery life dropoff.
So? I think pretty much every mp3 player has some sort of random play option...

Yeah, yeah...look this is getting kinda stupid. Let's just end it with that Apple took the Zen idea from them and sort of made it less quality, which they kinda did.
The plagerizem part was what Apple kinda did. Not the less quality part.
(But Sent, does the Creative Zen company have an iPhone?) ;)
Edit: But iPod is sorta a bit less quality.

No, because Creative make audio stuff and don't mess around trying to make rubbish phones. If you're interested in an iPhone alternative, you could always try the HTC Touch, made by a company who make phones...

Ok, I have to agree with Sent on this one. The iPhone is no good.

One: I know I won't be getting the iPhone anyway, and really everything is opinion when you say something sucks or this is great. Like I say I'm great, but that's just my thoughts. Some guy off the street might be saying "that's one ugly kid".
Two: I don't think there's a place to buy Zen in Canada unless online from Ebay.

Sure, it's your opinion, but it doesn't mean it's right. Some things do truly suck.

Sure there is. And even if there isn't, most of the US sites will ship to Canada...

Go to Future Shop. It's probably there.

You can get everything here, it's not BC ;)

Ehehehe. Hello, Ernest...

EDIT: Um, it seems to have sort of worked. Part of the board thinks you're Ernest, the other part still Luciene. Weird.

I knew everyone hated me.
Luciene (or Ernest)- because when Ernest was a female, I called her and male.
Gladstone: I ask too many questions
Gingerbreadman: Thinks I'm inferior to him
Sentynel: I held him in high esteem them insulted him
Apocrypha: Got a bad first impression of me
Mwamba: Made her scramble for a ripped fan art when I said I couldn't for the Stroud Card
Post: Also thinks I'm inferior
Rubberchickenben: Thinks I suck cause I get everything wrong in front of him
Random: Thinks I'm mean (which I can be)
Dansariki: Thinks I'm weird
nathaniel and bartimaeus: disagrees with me all the time
I think the only few people that don't think badly of me is Nathaniel. And others.
And don't deny it. You know you think of me as this...

Know what I think of you?
