So yesterday I got fed up with our distributor not getting that iPod to me. Its been nearly a month now and I still don’t have it. I understand they don’t normally deal in the consumer stuff, but for crying out loud! I was steamed. So I called up my guy and cancelled the order.

conveniently I got an advertisement from buy.com saying they could give me ALMOST as good a price as our distributor! On a $300 iPod the distributor was giving me $30 off and buy.com had it for $25 off. They also had some discounted accessories. So I ordered one from Buy.com as well as a Belkin TuneCast II transmitter so I can listen to the iPod tunes in the car. I think it comes with a DC power cord for the TuneCast that will also power the iPod so I don’t have to eat up batteries while there’s a perfectly viable power source right there.  And that was $25.  Belkin offers it for $39 at their own site.

It should be here by the end of the week. Buy.com has always treated me well and I’ve never had a bad experience with them. So I’m looking forward to having the new iPod for the weekend.
