Can you save up for a Harrier Jet like those Pepsi commercials from several years ago?
Cause...if so...a Harrier Jet. You know, for daily commutes and stuff.

They have a pretty nice selection of books. You can get the HOH ones for 6k points.
I'm leaning towards getting an ipod Shuffle 512 MB for 25k points.... That's a lot cooler than a pile of smaller stuff. It's worth $70 in the real world: My question, because I dont' know crap about ipods: Can I load it up with MP3s from my computer, or do I have to use itunes and all that crap? If I have to use itunes, will it read my mp3 collection, or does it only work with officially obtained music? Cause that would suck. I have to assume it will import my mp3s. This thing looks pretty sweet. |

Don't get the shuffle man. It only holds 512 mb, you'll be switching songs over like crazy. You should save up to get at least the 2 gb nano. You play such higher limits....it won't take you long to get it once you're back to cash games.

Too late!
 I'm not "saving up." I'll start from scratch and save up.... MAYBE.... but I just wanted to spend what I have and be done with this account. I just ordered the Shuffle, leaving me with a whopping 51 points. I don't need 30 GB of songs, and honestly, I don't need an ipod at all. I have XM Satellite radio in the car and at home, so the only time I'd really use this might be playing poker somewhere... and it's tiny, which is cool. And free! |

From someone who provided support to the agents supporting the HP/iPod Shuffle - that's the best bet from the Apple line (except for the Nano that Windbreaker mentioned). I'm not sure what, if anything, you use while bicylcing, but the flash-based players are far superior to the HDD players. You would not believe how many iPods we replaced on a daily basis for dead HDDs.
Also, as Thrash mentioned, no problem at all dumping MP3s over. You'll just need to load 'em into iTunes and they'll transfer over. As mentioned, between 100-120 songs (based on 128 bit encoding). Man...i do NOT miss supporting those things. My OTHER line of products on the other hand...those I miss... |

People have gotten nailed for this. You need to put some effort into it or they'll pick up on a pattern of deposits that doesn't "match your play."
I usually hit EVERY angle, when it comes to squeezing out cash from the poker sites, but even I don't do this. I think this "loophole" is closing up, as I know of two people who were asked to stop doing this in the last 2-3 weeks.

Sweet - that sounds awesome. I actually went for a 10+ mile bike ride yesterday, and I use nothing for music. This will be sweet.

I just got home a little while ago.... Sitting on top of my pile of mail was a package from "Fulfillment Department" (something like that). I opened it up and sure enough, it's my brand new ipod Shuffle. Wooohooo!
That was pretty quick (< 2 weeks from order to delivery). Definitely can't complain about that. Thanks Party. |

Took my 512 MB Shuffle to BestBuy today, along with a 12% off coupon that came in the mail from them this week.... Those plus $18, and I've not got myself a sweet 1 GB ipod Shuffle.
I dig it. |

Wait.. they let you return the one you got from party at the store? Man, I've worked for BB and they are pretty dumb, but you always needed a receipt.
Oh and ps. you should have waited a couple weeks. 1GB ipod nanos are coming out soon.

They have up to 4 GB Nanos already:
The Shuffle suits me just fine. And yeah, they let me swap it. "It was a gift," of course. |
