  1. I used the notes feature on my trip to SoCal last month to keep track of my itinerary, especially to keep track of the three buses I had to take from San Diego Airport to Del Mar. Will do the same in June for northwest vacation…

  2. #9,
    Descriptions and direction to sites to see and local bathrooms (with ratings!) when you are traveling in Europe. My girlfriend and I used my iPod for this exact purpose last September when we were in England and France. There are tons of sites out there with this info and you just need to copy and paste it into a plain text document (TextEdit) and then put it on your iPod in the notes section. You may need to clean up some of the spacing and use tabs before you sync your iPod to make it more readable.

  3. “I’ve got better things to do than listen to hypocritical drug abusers. Let alone ones who still think Bush is a good president. Get a life.”

    Don’t like Rush, don’t listen to him. Posting invective, abusive posts about other’s preference and choices I hope is not one of your “better things to do” I suggest you get to those better things and allow people their personal prefereces.

    Thanks for shopping.
