I"m interested. I"ve yet to buy a IPOD like device.

My ipod headphone jack is starting to fuck up. :'(
-
My ipod hd is starting to fail :'(
-
^^ see perfect time for a new model.

Mine still works fine, but I want a new one anyways cause I'm a trained consumer. Gimme!

yeah i can do that on my iphone now
oh well 16 GB max size = im keeping my 5th gen 30 GB ipod for now . no buy
-
That new Nano seems really impressive, I like the size, 4GB for $150 isn't bad at all. Might actually have to get one... tho iTunes is :-\
-
ouch...
8GB iphone pricedrop to $399 = FUCK YOU.
-
why is iTunes :-\?
oh and abrader, I'm not feeling the storage space on the touch either, but the the iPod classic with 160GB??? goddamn.

yeah only a teeny bopper at the begininning of their music collection career would have less than 8 or 16 GB music.

I really want the ipod touch, but that measly 16GB is such a downer. Why couldn't they add a hard drive instead.
-
holy fuck 8 and 16 gigs? fucking useless. no money for you apple
-
Pretty good conference -- funny to see all the iPhone freaks owned so hard so soon. $200 pricedrop was an awesome move.
I will probably look into picking up a refurbished 8gb iPhone or the 16gb iPod Touch. I've been on a 2gb nano for a year now so pretty much anything is an upgrade for me. I don't really care about being able to carry around my entire music collection.....seems like it'd be a hassle to search/shuffle through that much music, even using the iPod interface.
-
^
If you're interested the apple store has the 4GB iPhone on clearance for $299 new.
-
Not a very good deal when the refurbished 8gb iPhone is a mere $350. If they had refurbished 4GB phones for $250 though, then I'd snap it up.
-
^
I'd be wary with refubs though. A friend bought a video ipod or whatever there called these days. It had light blemishes, and minor scratches on it.
-
I missed this announcement in all the jury dutying
$399 iPhone, lolol. sucks to have bought an iPhone.
...wait, the "touch" is 8GB and 16GB only? USELESS. FUCKING USELESS.
I see the new video also takes "postage-stamp sized screen" to its literal conclusion
-
160GB of good loving and all you fuhgurts can say is OMG THE TOUCH AM GIMPED
Show me a DAP with 160GB for $349. And fuck off with that Archos bullshit. The model is shown leaning over from the weight of carrying that fucking garage door opener looking thing.
-
what are you talking about corny. 8 and 16 is distinguished mentally-challenged.
-
Well after this ghastly news today I have decided the following;
- no new apple purchases here
- my 8 GB iphone becomes my portable music player I keep in my pocket - its better than the ipod touch anyway.
- my 30 GB ipod becomes my portable music collection HDD. Go to a party and need to bring my collection? 30 GB ipod is it. Need to play music around the house using one of my many docking stations? 30 GB ipod is it.....
- I just sold my ceramic white JP PSP to a coworker today for $150
- next week I buy a new slim NTSC black PSP
that is all....

ipod touch is 8 and 16 GB of storage....160 GB is for the new ipod classic....(non touch screen model)
-

I know it is, but don't spend all your time thinking about that when you could be thinking about the $349 160GB iPod Classic. That's what I'm talking about.
-
i fit my meagre music collection on a 2GB nano just fine :'(
i'mma get one of those 16GB touches, looks like the hot hot hot hot anal ramma-lamma i know nothing of but mupepe and corny whisper about
and 160 gb in that form factor? :bow :bow :bow
-

It's not like Matchbox 20 has released that many albums.
-
:lol
-
WOW - I just unleased a shitstorm on apples sales, and they are at least going to give me the $400 I lost (I bought 2 iphones - one for me and one for my girlfriend) in itunes store giftcard....
-
160 and a Nano for me.
The Touch, well, 16 gigs for 399 is ehhhh enough, but the thing is, I'm not sure if I'd go for one if they held 160 gigs. I like being able to manage my iPod when it's in my pocket, without having to look at it. I wouldn't even be able to skip songs with the Touch without pulling it out of my pocket to look at.
-
I'm gonna get a 160 too
-
a touch with 160 GB would really be the ULTIMATE ipod....
and for purists they could just have a scroll wheel app for the screen....
-
which you can't feel?
-
which you can't feel?
umm it doesnt realy spin - you just run your finger around it in a circle - its like a touchpad on notebook or something...

Yes, but you can feel the wheel on current ipods, so you can tell what you are doing.

Yes, but you can feel the wheel on current ipods, so you can tell what you are doing.
A touchscreen app on the Ipod touch could do the same thing, without the different feeling finger zone...you know that both the ipod, iphone and ipod touch support those headphone line remotes right?
-
I don't have an ipod but don't you also have to click left, right, and up? how would you do that?
-

Well im sure its just like the touch screen on the iphone - so it could easially differentiate between you sliding your finger around the wheel, and pressing on one of the 4 points to click.
-
it'd be pretty flawed. most people would probably want something that connects between their ipod and headphone that has a scroll wheel instead. but that would be huge.

Why would it be flawed? I am an iphone power user and the screen can handle it easially....
The 'remote' you mention that is on the line between the ipod and the headphones already exists.

You also like Lair, so your opinions on what's acceptable and what's not aren't very trustworthy.

Thats pretty fukkin lame.
-
I'm saying that remote wouldn't normally be bought by people.
does the iphone have a touchpad scroll wheel that never messes up?
-

As lame as Lair and personal music players that do not have tactile feedback?
-
LOL you guys just love to disagree....
anyway - iphone touch screen is the best and most accurate I have ever used...this "classic ipod scroll wheel" app idea for the screen is EASIALLY pulled offf and easially just as accurate as touching the old wheel on a legacy ipod....
-
Well good for it being just as accurate. Too bad I can't accurately use it without looking at the face of the device to see where the wheel is!
-
wait why is it that you would want one instead of the one with a bigger hard drive?
-

I have need for both a HDD-based player and a flash-based one.
-
I'm asking abrader under the suspicion that the touch costs more than the 160 GB.
-
Well good for it being just as accurate. Too bad I can't accurately use it without looking at the face of the device to see where the wheel is!
oh i agree completely - thats why you need a headset remote...keep your ipod locked and in your pocket.

Abrader, just lie and say that you hate Lair so that people would stop using that to attack everything you say.

I'd say "touché," but we know how you feel about touch controls. So, "wagglé"!

Definitely getting an iPhone after the price drop. It's still the best iPod ever, and the iTouch is a gimp. Fuck that shit. The 160 Classic is kinda cool, but it's just a bigger iPod. Whatever.

i got an iphone right after jobs made that announcement. literally hopped in my car and went straight to the mall during my lunch break. best $299 ever spent on an apple product. i don't care for the music features as much as the internet mobility and simple pda functions. in fact, i uploaded a bunch of albums yesterday thinking the drive would fill up fast, but i can put a shitload more if i wanted. also helps that i'm an at&t wireless customer. iphone = gadget of the year/forevers
<-- happy customer
-
I only have like 9 gigabites of music (lol, "only"), so I might just get the iPod Touch and be done with it.
