Beta tester

early_ipod.jpgLittle known fact: I was part of the earliest test group for the iPod.

Here I am c. 1972 with one of the prototypes. Note that this model has the exact dimensions of an 8-track tape. Hmm. (Aside: If radio didn’t start sucking so bad, would the Walkman/iPod have beaten out the venerable transistor radio?)
