I-Proposal?
My cousin had decided to propose to his long time (and long suffering) girlfriend after ten years together. Not wanting to do something as dull as getting on one knee he decided to give her something unexpected. He started off by buying her an Ipod Video and putting a video of him proposing to her on it. Then he gave it to her as a gift. When she started playing with it and found the video she said yes, and now she can relive that moment whenever she wants by watching that video.
I'm sure he isn't the first person to think of this, but it did get me thinking about how MP3 players have really become a part of our lives. Instead of making your crush a mixtape (or should I say mixCD) why not buy a cheap mp3 player and load the songs onto it. It will make a better impression. Will we come to a day when proud new parents don't pull out pictures in their wallets, but treat us to podcasts and videos of their children's accomplishments? Anyone else have stories of how people have used their MP3 players to make connections with other people? We'd love to her them.

That is definately a unique way to propose. It's probably a lot more special when they are surprised like that in a totally unexpected way. How many would expect to be proposed to on an iPod video? Not many I'm sure.
With the technology as it is today it's no wonder it was done. Has there been any YouTube proposals? Probably has you'd think.
Wouldn't the proposal loose its significance if you could watch it over and over again? We tend to remeber things being much more romantic on reflection that they actually were, so by continually watching it, won't the novelty wera off? I like the idea of an original proposal, but i'm not sure I'd want to carry it around in my pocket. Or show it to anyone else for that matter, it's private.
