My iTrip
At this point, the iTrip is still in my iPod, and I am listening to BuzzOutLoud, a podcast by CNET. Suddenly, my iPod falls out of my pocket and into the water. It was locked (meaning that the buttons didn't do anything) since it was in my pocket, so it didn't even stop playing. It hit the water face down. When I snatched it up, it was displaying this error message:
Press Center to dismiss
I'm naturally freaking out, pressing center and whatnot, completely forgetting that the iPod is locked. Meanwhile, the podcast continues to play, although strangely, it is cutting off a couple times per second. I managed to unlock the iPod, press pause, and get the headphones off of my head. I had to press Center a bunch of times before unplugging the headphones and the iTrip and putting the iPod on the floor.
My iPod Video
I think that the iPod would have been a goner had it not been for the smaller miniUSB port in the iTrip to block out the water from getting into the huge port at the bottom of the iPod. I'm just glad that I got a FireWire error message instead of a "I'm scared Dave, will I dream?" message.
