iPod nanoooo nanoooo

Dear financially happy Grandfather to my children,

The girls are somewhat excited about their Christmas gift from overseas. A lackluster reaction due to their oblivion of the purpose of the "toy", in addition, immediate imposition of strict regulations and use limitations crushed all further elation.

These rules are hereby imposed, any violation is punishable by law, including but not restricted to confiscation, imposition of the time honored isolation in the corner, and the partake of cruel and unusual cleaning duties.

1. Before first use, parental control have to imposed on the product, all content will be screened and approved by The Power.
2. Do not disturb The Power during initialization.
3. Really, do not forget rule 2.

Dear grandfather, upon conclusion, what did I do to deserve all the extra headache?? Now I have to develop extra tracking senses for 2 iPods in the possession of a 9 year old and a 3 year old. We hope the latter will not dunked hers into the apple juice for a water proof test. A plea for sanity, please just send them $$$ in care of The Power next Christmas.
