Pink iPod nano debuts for spring, Valentine's, pink lovers
I have a tale to tell my friends (that's you guys) here at Infinite Loop. I received a text message from a friend of mine who works at a retail outlet last night (not an Apple Store), asking me if there was a new Apple announcement yesterday. I wrote back and said "no, why?" He proceeded to tell me that his store just got a shipment of pink iPod nanos. I went to the iPod nano page on Apple's site to check out the color lineup and saw the reddish/magenta color, and assumed that's what he was referring to. I moved on with my life. This morning, Apple announced a new, truly pink iPod nano. D'oh! Good job losing that scoop, Jacqui. Happy Birthday to me. Moving along, the "gorgeous" pink iPod nano, as Apple refers to it, is available immediately in 8GB for $199.
Wesley caps Hurricanes' rally with winning goal
Nothing was going right for the Carolina Hurricanes, not in this game and certainly not this season against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Everything changed with one brilliant stretch of hockey. "We knew that we hadnt played our best," Carolina defenseman Glen Wesley said. "We knew we had to go out there and not play in our heels." And Wesley, of all people, came through with the game-winner, capping a huge third-period comeback with his first goal in more than nine months to help Carolina beat the Lightning 4-3 Friday night. Down 3-1 entering the final 20 minutes and headed toward another lopsided loss to their Southeast Division rival, the Hurricanes scored three goals in less than 7 minutes to beat Tampa Bay for the first time this season.
