I’m packing to go to Buenos Aires in a few moment, putting some last minute text files on my iPod. But that reminds me, I have a problem with my iPod on airplanes. As soon as the cabin pressurizes, my iPod freezes. I did a cursory search on the Internet and can’t find anyone else with the same problem. The whole device makes this terrible grinding sound and the display stops working. There is a little flashing broken iPod. Then as soon as the cabin pressurizes, when we land thank god, the things starts working again. It is really weird.
it’ might be because they let the cabin pressure drop. Most airlines keep the cabin pressure at 5K feet during the day and 10K feet at night. The hard drive in the ipod won’t work above 10k feet.
I didn´t know that.
Perhaps that is it, because it works on some flights. But not on other, I didn´t think to work time into it.
