What do you kids think?
They introduced the iPod Touch, iPod Classic (now 160gb) and a new iPod Nano video.
The iPod touch has wireless capabilities, it’s basically the iPhone without the phone…
I just got my 80gb iPod less than a year ago, so I’m nowhere near ready for a new one just yet. Hopefully when I do need a new one the iPod touch will be 160gb… I’m sure it’s not too far off.

looks pretty cool. im not sure about making the new ipods rouch screen though…just seemed like the wheel worked well. i guess its good they give you the option

They look cool. Cool as fuck.
I’m on my second pod, a 60GB classic with video, nearly 2 years old so I hope I won’t need an upgrade too soon. I love the touch - great big screen for videos, but 16GB that’s a bit small. The 160GB classic is more my size, I think with that capacity I can put ALL my music on, a luxury I have not yet enjoyed (even though I’ve got enough music to play solidly for 2 months, it’s still not enough).
So a nice development, but I guess I’ll be waiting a year or so yet - maybe get the phone, or wait for the touch to get a memory upgrade.
Conversely, I also just bought a Sony Walkman mp3 player for running. Absolute rubbish. The software is horrendous and they don’t have a mac version so I have to fire up the old pc whenever I want to put new tunes on it. It is an awful cheap version of itunes that looks shitty (really early-90s style graphics) takes forever to process tracks and then doesn’t organise them properly - ie when an album has more than 1 disc, it clumps the tracks in together so that you get disc 1, track one, followed by disc 2, track 1 then disc 1, track 2 etc. Completely kills all those beautiful segues! And it’s not loud enough too. Running out in the open, near busy traffic, I need the music loud!
Walkman used to be synonymous with mobile music - one of those brand names that defines the product like Hoover, Jacuzzi or Sellotape. They have thrown away all that cache with sloppy products. I can’t help thinking that one of the reasons that iPod is so successful is because Sony have dropped the ball so spectacularly.
What’s an iPod?
I don’t own a cellphone. I likely won’t own an Iphone or Ipod or whatever it’s called now. And seriously…doesn’t using your finger on the screen like they do in the commercials cause big smugges on the screen. I have a Nintendo DS and that’s what happens if you use your finger…I always use the stylus.
That IS a nice looking hand, though…

One of them probably belongs to George Costanza.
Fucking Awesome. Too bad I won’t need a new one for some time.
only 8 and 16??
bullshit to me… even for the touchie screen
Anyone hear about how they dropped the price of the iPhone by $200!!! How hilarious!! Even worse, all those morons who couldn’t POSSIBLY wait for the price to go down whined so much to Apple that they’re actually refunding $100 of it. How lame…it’s their fault for being such tools that they MUST have the latest phone when it is at its most expensive and has the most bugs in it. They deserve the screwjob they got.

If you’ve got the money, why not spend it.
b/c if you put it in a bank account, your money will make you money, ya dig, interest
sure if you want to be a capitalist fat cat.
Because you could have waited a month and save $200 for it. These people should know that after the initial release, the price ALWAYS drops on these items. Video game systems, new phones, new computers, new TVs…wait a year and you’ll pay half for almost all of these items…

I support capitalism, but I don’t want to be fat.
So I’ll just settle for being a capitalist cat.
I do live in america
