My mom (50+) is getting an iPod for Christmas, because she wants it.

David Anderegg is just wrong and outdated. Maybe the terms “geek” and “nerd” had negative connotations like 5 years ago, but I find that many people self-identify as geeks now, with the rise of social technology. (Of course, I was geek since it was unpopular to be one.)

Logitech may have self-interest in the issue, but it jives with my experiences. My mother in law (~62)s wish for christmas ? A usb-stick with more storage than her current 8GB one which is getting overfull with pics of grandchildren, videos downloaded from youtube, music and a metric ton of Gutenberg-books.
