Today, with the launch of the new iPod shuffle, the last Apple hardware device where I was directly involved in the translation (i.e. the old shuffle, where I translated and DTP:d the Swedish manual and parts of the packaging) has been retired. Of course my translations (like those by [livejournal.com profile] jophan, [livejournal.com profile] tuwr, [livejournal.com profile] sunjan and [livejournal.com profile] kjn, some of which I based mine on) will be recycled, paraphrased and reused for as long as Apple keep localising their stuff. I suppose it counts as immortality, after a fashion.

EDIT: Nice thoughts to my old co-workers, who must have had (and probably are still having) a hellish day today. When I talked to [livejournal.com profile] thette this morning, she said it is quite obvious that I am happy to be out of there, even a year and a half after I quit...
