Leo Laporte is the host of many podcasts, tv and radio shows about technology. His TWiT Network is one of the most listened to online, and he comes up to Vancouver 1 week a month to work on The Lab With Leo.
He loves his gear. He’s usually on the bleeding edge for buying the latest and greatest, sitting on waiting lists until something new is released.
But every now and again Leo waits and buys something a little further down the line, and when he does, it means the item is about to be discontinued.
He’ll buy the HD DVD player the day before the battle is lost to Blu Ray, he’ll buy a new iPod the day before the memory is doubled and the size is shrunk.
It’s called getting Leo’d, and it just happened to me.
I finally received my iPod Shuffle that I scooped on the Future Shop Boxing Day Sale for $59.99. A GREAT deal I thought. Nope.
Today Apple announced the price of the shuffle has dropped to $55, and a new 2 gig model is being introduced for $75.
Grrr.
