iPod vending machine

iPods are even sold in vending machines ...

I saw this vending machine of iPod in DFW airport. I left Dallas today earlier in the morning even though we are also having tomorrow off for Easter. I thought it would be better to get back early and adjust myself for going back to school...

Vending machines do not take taxes. For example, if you buy a bottle of coke from a vending machine, you will only pay $1.25, while you would pay $1.25 + 8.25% taxes if you bought it from any supermarket. If the same case is with this iPod vending machine, then this is a great thing, because you would end up saving up to $20 or $30 if you bought the iPod from this vending machine and not from Apple store or any other store which takes taxes. Cool...
