It's a compact storage unit that holds music in an electronic format, it can be used like a traditional walkman except it only holds music that you place on it with your computer. You download songs to your computer, place the songs onto the ipod and it plays them back. There is a line out that can be used to plug in headphones or a direct line into a radio to play them, there is a base plug that can be used as a line out as well. It's really a pretty cool toy, but it's use is predicated on your desire to get music files and put them on it. ~John -----Original Message----- From: amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxx [mailto:amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mr. AMC Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2006 3:58 PM To: amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [AMC-List] I Pod, Pee Pod, Zee Pod, X Pod. I am a simple old man who doesn't have or want a radio in any of my cars. I understand this is some kind of way to listen to music. Can some one give me a definition what an I Pod is in simple 60's english that I can understand? Not that I would ever get one, but just out of curiosity. Thanks.
