is it a flash version of iPod, or hard drive type? It might be the drive going bad.

Hard drive. Nooo, Renfield can't die! Because if I have to replace this iPod, I would feel too self-conscious to have the same phrase engraved on the back. (Renfield says "Queen of the Goths", because it was a present from a group of friends.)

Renfield the iPod has developed a weird noise.

Has it started eating flies?

As opposed to files.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, for the record, I got that Netgear b/g router linked upthread, and it totally works, and I don't notice it being any slower than I was before. Good times!

Hee. I saw you announce elsewhere, jesse. Are you wondering why you didn't do it long ago?

If that made Renfield stop making the funny static-y noise, I would be fine with that. The reset did not seem to take care of the problem. Crap, I'm going to need to save my spending money for a new iPod, aren't I?

Yeah, now I feel like a jackass. Although I still have the power plugged in.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'm thinking of upgrading my TIVO and am not sure which service plan to go with. I have a lifetime agreement on the old one and they are offering either $99 a year or $299 for a new lifetime on the new one.

With the way technology is changing, is it worth it to do the lifetime and get value on it over 3 years? Or does the annual fee make more sense?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I went with the lifetime - my first Tivo lasted 6 years (and was still going strong, but it wasn't HD so I replaced it) so the lifetime sub more than paid for itself. I can't see myself having the money to significantly upgrade my AV system again in less than 3 years.

Suzi, I just got a thing for a half price HD tivo, is that what you want to upgrade to?
