So yea now they do video, they are also much thinner, hold more, have even longer battery life, and to top it off.. they\'re $50 cheaper!

dammit I can\'t upgrade I gotta save up for a house :mad:
-
Waits for mm\'s negativity.
I don\'t need to upgrade mine, it would be a waste, but it would certainly be nice for someone who doesn\'t own one yet.
-
mine doesn\'t do video, but I\'d never do that anyway. Only thing that would have been cool had I waited was the larger screen.
-
portable mp3 player + video = lame
you need your ass kicked if you\'re watching music on a 2.5" screen
oh, and apple = whores
what a way to kill a fad by saturation
:rolleyes:
-
Wait no longer, phil.
-
As long as they make them smaller, with longer battery they can churn out as many new models as they want.
-
I just got a new one a month ago... they\'re not even selling the U2 one anymore which is the one I got. It is cool though to be able to play videos on your iPod. Although the main users of the iPod probably won\'t buy into it.
-
Interesting. Now this time, Apple does seems to woe me into getting interested in their Apple Ipods. I never own one, don\'t care about. But this model does actually make me pay a good attention to it. 30 GBytes, play songs, photo, and video, thinner, longer battery life, all for $300? Cool.
But again, I won\'t be getting one anytime soon, but I am quite amaze at Apple latest effort.

60GB iPod? Jebus Corpse. WTF? Who needs that much space?
-
Thats a lot of porn.
-
Why would anyone want to jack off to a 2.5" screen?
-
well if you\'re on the road, small as it may be it sure beats ones imagination.
-
a 2.5" screen is pretty big 2.5 inches from your face
-
That\'s one sexy Ipod... I\'d be all over it if I didn\'t already have an mp3 player.
-
This replace the iPod Photos former tier.
How is this over saturation? People who complain about Apple seem to be complete tools.
-
well mm has some sort of a point. If apple keeps releasing new Ipods every month its going to make the consumer afraid of buying one. Who wants to buy a new Ipod when a new and better might replace it in a day?

The Mini and the old 20 gig sold very well. (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.penny-arcade.com%2Fforums%2Fimages%2Fsmiles%2Ficon_confused.gif&hash=b11bc1cc4a9be4e4e25e286aa834266d9a1efafa)
-
still selling well?
-
They\'re phased out now, I don\'t see why would they.
Apples biggest cash cow was their iPods. Even doubting this is stupidity.

You missed point entirely.
-
soul reaver, noone mentioned anything about apple\'s "cash cow"
the ocean is a large body of water.
Even doubting this is stupidity.
-
The iPod nano is the dumbest thing I\'ve ever seen. I\'d lose that in a week.
-
It\'s dumb because you\'d lose it?
-
I\'m happy. My old Ipod broke(it fell...out of window) so now I get a refund since I bought a warranty and I\'m just buying the video one for the hell of it with it.
-
alright its settled, no buying a new iPod for at least 2 years for me... by then it will start your car and cook you breakfast in the morning.

You just stop trying after a certain point don\'t you?
-
well, i get bored easily
oh, and the sun is hot...and fiery
you can\'t deny this
-
oh, and the sun is hot...and fiery
It won\'t be in 5 billion years...but then again...who cares?!?
-
Is Apple offering to replace/trade-in obsolete ipods , with new (video, picture, etc.) ipods?
-
apple?
trade in?
:lmao:
-
I\'m going to buy this. And a Game Boy Micro. Then I\'m going to stack up some more cash and just set it on fire and dance around in the ashes of money well spent.

-
