think the MP3 player is one of the most amazing inventions ever. lt's smaller than a cell phone, and all my favorite music is stored on it (1,000 tracksl). I use my MP3 player to listen to music almost everywhere. I listen to it in the car on my way to work. Then I listen to it in the office, using the earbuds, so it doesn't annoy anyone. Then I head to the gym and listen to it while I'm working out. And I listen to it again on the way home in the car. lt's great when you travel by train or bus, too, because it creates a feeling of personal space around you.
