KITTY!

I am cat-sitting for the next door neighbours through Sunday. The cat, Bayo, is a VERY friendly fuzzbutt (long-haired), but not too bright. I should take pictures! It's quite pretty/cute, imo. :)

This means KITTEN THERAPY! YAY!

In other news, when you start stamping your foot, swearing, and wanting to throw the knitting across the room, it is time to step away from the project and take a break. Really.

Also, Harry Potter (the first movie) is NOT sad enough to warrant teary eyes. Have some more chocolate!

Really though, I'm doing better than I was. Which implies that I'm either eating closer to what I should be, or that I've been at this dosage of Paxil for at least a week and I'm starting to adjust. Yay!

Sound fidelity factors: knowledge wanted

Writing an article on convergence devices for work.

I know that the format you store an audio file in can affect sound quality (right?)
I know that the speakers or headphones you use to listen to it can definitely affect it.
I know the wires used to move the data from the device playing the music to said speakers can affect sound quality.

But, how does the device itself impact the sound quality?

Given the same output method, and the same speakers or headset, but a different MP3 player, for instance, would there be variation in sound quality?

And, has anyone used their PDA or cellphone as an MP3 player, and if so, how did the sound quality compare to a normal MP3 player?
