After last Friday’s release of The Free iPod Book 3.0, iLounge’s editors received an e-mail with this great image from Times Square, showing the announcement that sparked over 300,000 downloads by the end of its first weekend online.
Now that we’ve had a chance to catch our breath, we wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your continued readership and participation in the iLounge community. Beyond just the huge download volumes we see for our Guides, we truly appreciate the contributions you make to iLounge’s articles, forums, and galleries—each of our publications is as much a celebration of the fantastic collection of iLoungers as it is the iPod itself.
On that subject, if you haven’t seen some of the amazing photographs from our iPod Fashion Contest yet, the winners are here. Thanks to all who entered; our next contest is coming very soon!

Congrats on reaching over 300,000 downloads in the first weekend. Glad to know I made up 2 of them (I got the print and wide version
) but yeah, great job on making the books and hopefully there will be more to come.
