As we all know, wanting and needing something
Are two different things. Right now, on my budget,
I’m definitely into the need category for anything that
I buy.

So, do I need a Revolution?

Maybe, maybe not.

I can use it to save the battery on my iPod. How?
Because with Revolution, I can play the volume much,
Much lower on the iPod – which means my battery lasts
Longer between charges. And that’s handy. Plus, replacing
An iPod battery is mucho expensive, (like, over $100 and it means
I have to send it in to do that, so I’m iPodless for a couple of weeks.
Who needs that? So, anything I can do to put off that dreaded
day is a good thing.

Second, if I use it with my FM Transmitter in my car, I don’t get
The dreaded “static drift” because the added power helps it to lock
On to my station as I’m driving. Another good thing.

And, using it makes my music sound better than ever. Richer, fuller
Like I’m right on stage with the band. So, that’s a very good thing.

And when I go home I can use it with my docking station or
mini-computer speakers and get full stereo surrounds sound.
Now I can dig that.

Or, go to silent mode and just use it with my headphones. I get
Home theatre sound out of this little iPod and my Revolution.
A very good thing.

And later, when I feel like playing video games, I can use it to hook
Into my Xbox with my boyfriend and we don’t keep everyone awake
While we game, yet we can both share kick azz surround sound effects.

And I can use it on my PS2 or portable DVD player for a movie worth listening to
When I travel. It even has the power to drive my Noise Canceling Headphones.

My boyfriend Jake and I can use it on his motorcycle, as the two splitters allow
Us to share and the 4x power gives us what we need to hear over road noise.

Of course, if I add it as part of my disaster plan, (because I would definitely
Want music if I had to live for ten days with no electricity, heat, or water,)
then it just jumped into the “need category”. Since the Revolution is battery
Powered – all I have to do is pick up and extra batteries and I can listen to
My music and news while the rest of the world gets its act together.

Yep, no doubt about it. I need a Revolution in my pocket.
So does my boyfriend.
