Students receive iPods from University

updated 09:20 am EST, Fri March 14, 2003


Students at The University of Western Australia studying Communication Studies will as part of their semester enrollment:

"The Communication Studies students will primarily make use of the iPod as a 20GB storage drive on which they will keep their digital media projects throughout the semester. The iPod also provides teachers with the means of delivering course materials electronically to each student, including contact details, sound files, video clips, audiobooks and e-books - all with the click of a mouse. The convenience of such a process has allowed the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences to introduce digital media elements to a wide variety of teaching disciplines with ease."

    Posters

    Yes, I have all of them in mint condition. They are worth a lot of money.

    What about...

    a vintage Apple Poster, with the rainbow logo. It's not in mint conditon, and the corners are scratched, so i don't know in which year it was made. But probably, it was made before i was born... Anyway, do you have any ideas on how much it costs ? I might sell in 20 years or so.

    Even a U.C. education doesn't buy me anything like that. :(

    Re: vintage poster

    I've found the best way to get an estimate on the value of something is to look up similar items on eBay. try it!

    Wow

    That's a cool use for iPods... but the students will probably use it for mostly music... I wonder what type of iPods they get, the PC or the Mac version?
