Timidity

Though the white iPod nano is tiny, it still made an impression on the pope. When the head of the radio’s technical and computer support department, Mauro Milita, identified himself and handed the pope the boxed iPod, the pope was said to have replied, “Computer technology is the future.”

The pope’s new 2-gigabyte digital audio player already was loaded with a sampling of the radio’s programming in English, Italian and German and musical compositions by Ludwig van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Frederic Chopin, Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky and Igor Stravinsky. The stainless steel back was engraved with the words “To His Holiness, Benedict XVI” in Italian.

Man I love this POPE!!!
Because people give him neat toys to play with? :rotfl:
 
YAY!!! This is so cool!!

However I would warn him not to listen to it too much, it may damage his ears - as it has mine 😛
 
I dont know whether to good heartedly chuckle or be concerned that the Pope in the 21 st century said…computer technology is the future… out of touch much? 😉
 
Hmm… I wonder if JPII gave Pope Benedict his pair of Bono’s sunglasses. That would make an interesting picture.
