John Mayer’s guitar works better than his iPod
By Steve Pounds | Tuesday, March 25, 2008, 11:14 AM
John Mayer may be great with an acoustic guitar but he’s not any luckier with his iPod than the rest of us.
Gizmodo.com got a copy of his technical report to Apple on his iPod crashing while trying to download some new tunes. Poor guy, he had to wor kout with the same old songs.
“Nothing’s worse than running to stale music in your iPod, am I right. I mean, I love “Bittersweet Symphony” as much as the next guy, but let’s face it, after a while it stops being a power song. Anyhoo, I plug the iPod in and I get the spinning wheel. For a while, I wasn’t even being impatient or anything.” Mayer said.

Good man, John. No sense in slamming it against the desk. My wife’s iPod, one of the first-generation video jobs, has twice gone on the fritz. She found some instructions on the Apple web site to re-sync the buggy device with our iMac and that worked fine.
