Such a worry over nothing...
Mr. Kaplan, you and I are not communicating well. I knew what you said you
had or I wouldn't have wondered why the OS was taking up 60 GB on your iPod.
You said you wanted to get an iPhone — sorry I said "his" iPhone; I was using
it in the sense of "I am going to buy a Ferrari. *My* Ferrari will be red."
Sure I don't have the Ferrari yet, but when I get one, my Ferrari is going to
be red.
What confused me more was why you couldn't fit 20 GB of music on a 32 GB
iPhone. Someone clarified that for me by explaining that the 32 GB will also
host your iPhone apps.
Mr. Kaplan, I am sorry that I find your original post so confusing.
Apparently, no one else did. I hope that you find it in your heart to
forgive me so that we can move away from this useless analysis.
