iTease (alternate title: iCry or iLame or I'm Lame)



So I'm still seething about calling the apple store yesterday and having them tell me the iPod Touch is in stock. yes, i'm one of those early-adopting geeks who just has to have something the minute they see it (but I did fight off the urge to drop Verizon and pick up AT&T and get screwed over to pay a $700 iPhone) and the moment I saw it for sale I admit I ordered it online. But, I'm not one to wait for it to be delivered so when I heard that the flagship store had some in stock I raced over, only to find out that they had indeed sold out like 30 minutes ago. This would not have bothered me if not for the woman telling me they "had plenty in stock, so no worries."

It got so bad that I actually went on to ebay and saw all the scumbags who were trying to sell the iPod Touches they got for a $100 or even $200-$300 over the cost. I almost bid on one but then when I realized that I would be paying more for an 8GB than I would for the 16GB, reality jumped in. Well that and my bank account and my realization that I'd rather eat dinner tonight then watch the movie Diner on my iPod Touch. Guess I'll wait until the end of the month.
