iPod desires

After a month of careful consideration i decided to buy an ipod yesterday, but after lots of phone calls i found out that they are sold out everywhere in vienna and upper austria. I could find only one single store that had the 10gb ipod in stock, but i rather wanted to go for the 15gb or 30gb ipod (the lack of accessories provided with the 10gb model is just disappointing). However, i was told by several stores that they expect a 15gb-delivery next week and they recommended me to pay a deposit to ensure to get a unit of the next delivery. Not being able to wait even longer for a 30gb ipod i followed the recommendation, so hopefully i’ll become a proud ipod owner next week.
I’m not quite sure if i’ll regret that i didn’t wait for the 30gb ipod, but then again the 15gb is (physically) smaller, weighs less and is 100 euro cheaper.
Now i’ve started searching for some decent cases, but since a dear friend showed me a fantastic ipod case in i-d’s july issue i’m spoiled. Too bad i don’t know how to get my hands on it, afaik it’s only available at colette in paris and they don’t offer it in their online shop. Perhaps i’ll just go with an iskin or vaja case.
