iPod Original, 12 Years To The Date.

iPod Original 12 Years Bad Religion White Christmas

The original iPod was introduced at Apple Campus by the late Steve Jobs on October 23, 2001. It went on sale on November 10, 2001 and retailed for $399 MSRP.

Twelve years later, the iPod pre-ordered on October 23, 2001 is still in my possession. It still works.

I loaded a collection of Christmas songs from iTunes Music Store which is the latest cash-grab-attempts by Bad Religion, aptly titled “Christmas Songs“.

I used this iPod for many years until I got a free iPod mini in the Summer 2004 thanks to Apple’s “Back to School” promotion.
