My new toy !!!

I couldn´t help it. Still one week to Xmas and I unpacked my early present from my boss / our library. It was a rather Creative gift, which - after what I have heard - is actually needed in 2008, when we enter the next stages of 23 Things. The present is a Creative Zen V Plus audible player with a 2 GB memory, and this little black matchbox can contain 1000 songs (that is if they are only 64 kbps) and handle MP3, WMA, FM Radio and perhaps even tell you, when it´s time for a lunchbreak! - (read about all details in danish here or in english here) - so, I am of course mistaken. This is not a new toy, this is a work tool for at least one of 23 Things, but - it may come in handy, when we continue with the next 43 Things!

Now, is this an expensive gift? - well, I see many different prices for this little monster on the net, and I guess my boss negotiated for a discount, when he bought the whole stock as presents for his staff! - And of course other library managers should give their staff a small present for Xmas. Last year we got 3 presents: a book, a bottle of wine and - because of my age and fading memory - I can´t remember what the last one was. - You can´t drink this little black & green toy, but for a music lover it may still come in handy. Also for 1 or 2 serious library things!
