I Replaced My iPod With GPS

What?

Okay, I’ve been watching woot.com’s daily deals. Woot is an online store that has a “daily deal” on something cool for cheap. Each day they add a limited quantity of some product and “wooters” can comment about the product or buy one (or a couple). Nothing has struck my fancy, until today…

But let me back up a little. I’m desperate for a music player while I’m in the gym. Last night the girl working turned on the country station. Country… in the gym? Ugh. But even the usual “classic rock” makes me want to poke out my ear drums, so I need my own music.

I went to K-Mart to look at the prices of generic mp3 players. The cheapest one (with a screen so I can navigate my playlist) was $50. I needed to think on it.

Whilst thinking on it, I went to woot.com today like I usually do each day. Today’s offer was a pocket GPS system that plays mp3s. YES! The LOOX is much bigger than my little nano – but I planned on paying $50 for a player anyway – add another $60 and I have a GPS unit. Plus, it plays video and comes with games. Sweet!

Here is a funny notice from Woot when I bought my LOOX:
