Still reeling from the ipod news. Best things about the fth gen: 1) 12 hour battery life 2) charging via USB, a godsend for those using PCs 3) more streamlined interface. Not sure if it is more user-friendly though. 
 
The other improvements are with the menu, and I could live without them.
 
Got a free book from the library, title: The Meaning of Meaning. Every now and then, the library gets rid of books, like obsolete software books, nursing manuals and generally books written in the 50s. But there are philosophy books sometimes, so I pick them up, in the hope that I will read them one day. Am assuming this book is about epistomology, which is, at best, fascinating and, at worst, a headache. It bought back not altogether unpleasant memories of Philosophy honours class, Heidegger's the being of Being.  That was definitely headache-inducing, but good to confuse friends with.
