Instant iPod
December 28th, 2006 Posted in Apple/iPod, Main Page
For some reason, the idea of buying an iPod from a vending machine strikes me as brilliant. The ubiquitous MP3 players have been available for sale at a few airports in the U.S. At Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, one vending machine has sold more than $55,000 worth of iPods in the past month, which is truly impressive. And you thought shopping at an airport was all about buying booze and perfume!

WOW! Love it. Splendid. I just got an ipod shuffle for the holidays and thought to myself: “Wonder how much money a street vendor during a marathon could make if they pre loaded a bunch of these things with some serious running tunes and handed them out during the race….and then tracked them down afterward to cash out from their race number!!”…hmm! You know, instead of tossing the runner the bottles of water during the race, randy-toss the the ipod preloaded!!! Yeah Baby!!

As a runner/gym rate, I’d love the idea of a iPod pre-loaded with workout tunes - stuff you may not want to hear in a non-workout environment but music that motivates and inspires.
