and then I'm like, man, there could be *smut* here.

So iPod, right? I knew it was a mobile harddisk, I just hadn't quite comprehended what this meant. I mean, I got my iPod for music and had no reason to think it could be used for anything else.

And then yesterday at work I'm messing around with it and I noticed that there was a collection of extras, including contacts and...notes.

Why did no one tell me I can store *fic* on this thing?

Because we thought you knew, honey. *g*

you *knew*? Wow, I feel like an idiot. But hey - portable *fic*. I'm not gonna get over that.

Also, because, sure, it can hold the fic so you can transport it to Jylland, or something, but you can actually only read the first page or two. At least that's hot it is on mine. Tell me if yours is different?

Well, at least it was a *good* surprise and not a nasty one.

(you know what? I don't think I have enough music to fill 4 GB of sapce. This is frightening. My iPod has a bigger mind than I do!)

Hm. I hope mine is different, but still *so* *awesome*. *Fic*. Yay!

If you want to read it while it's stored on there, you have to upload it in little chunks--at least that's the way it is with mine (which is an older modle). But... sometimes it's worth it. Like on long air trips! Although, it was awkward trying to read smut while sitting really close to my mother who was asking questions like "Are you playing a game on there?"

Try filling 40GB...

Then I would be truly frightened.

Yes, but it is more awkward when you're sitting with huge printed out pages - brothers have a tendency to read over shoulders.

I have a 4 hour bus trip every other week, so yeah - even in small chunks that's worth it ;)

Totally! And it *did* work with short fics...!

Yeah, it's the same with me. Only the chunks are not chunks, but little bits.

Oooh, joy! *the only other person who didn't know this*

Now, all I have to do is to wait for my iPod to arrive! *starts to whistle*
