back here, when i saw someone with ipod..

the few things that came into my mind:

-selfish, leave-me-alone person, i-dont-want-to be-disturbed
-show-off (especially those with nano and lanyard around the neck to tell the world)
-sucxer for the snatch thief
-distractions (i personally know a friend who use ipod while riding motorbike and several times saw people use the white earbud while driving-why? no idea, probably their car stereo broken)

Hey, the fourth item suits me! Interesting point here is that i tend to concentrate MORE on the road when i have my iPod playing music and headphones stuck to my ear... At least i won't be disturbed (back to the first item!) and can then focus concentration on the driving...

Anyway, the radio stations sometimes play sucky music so no choice but to turn on the Pod... biggrin.gif

ohmy.gif please get an adapter or itrip, don't drive with your ear stuffed.

had adviced my fren who use ipod while driving his motorbike. he argued against it, and i decide not to further the disagreement.
about a week later, he hit the back of a car, and broke his leg. while using ipod. rclxub.gif

for me, ipod headphone in your ear is another source of distraction.

i sounded like your mum, ehhh? biggrin.gif

You sure are judgmental. Why can't he/she be someone who actually enjoys music on the go? And I don't see how wearing an iPod is showing off, after all it's only a 400-dollar device, what's there to show off?

dude, we are talking about the disadvantage of ipod, right?

as someone who owns an ipod, i could probably list all the advantages...
but again, the topic is about the disadvantages, right?

edit: i've decide to take out what i believe would escalate things.
y'all, have fun. this is only a forum. not a name-calling playground.
