So, is anyone getting one of these? 15,000 songs!

I really want one, though I'm sort of sad to see all iPods gone except for this and the nano.

From Apple- "Purchase and download over 2,000 music videos and six short films from Academy Award-winning Pixar Animation Studios for just $1.99 each. Customers can also now purchase and download their favorite television shows from iTunes the day after they air on TV, watch them on their Mac or PC and Auto-Sync them onto the new iPod for viewing anywhere."

Sigh.
That's all I got to say. I guess I gotta get used to the new products.
I'm glad I got my iPod in February.

Wait. Does this new thing have a name?

Looks like a regular iPod, just able to store video.

Yup, the official name is just iPod.

I think this thing is hawt (it even has TV out), but what I'm most jazzed about is the new iMac G5 and FrontRow. *shivers*

My living room is begging for these things.

Dang it. Apple's been throwing me a 1-2 punch-thing.

First the Nano and now this. The thing is, what is watching a video on that screen like? I imagine its a pain in the eyes.

My iPod mini feels cold...

I don't like it. Sure it can have video and stuff, but I don't like it. It looks so... wide.

Edit: Now installing iTunes 6.0. Be back soon.
Edit: It's installed. Now I need Quicktime 7.0.3. Be back soon.
Edit: Videos on iTunes! Yay! This is cool.

Huh? Nobody's playing that iPod! Aaarrrrgggglllbblllee! No, seriously, I never want to get an iPod, MP3 player, or anything-a-lingie-ding-dong like that. I'll stick with my CDplayer instead of trying to keep up with technology, cuz, like, I'll have to buy some technollogy type dealie every 10 weeks, I juat don't want to use my money to buy anything-a-lingie-ding-dong

Heh, it looks like THAT iPod needs to cut back on the swiss cake rolls.

I laugh at those who bought an iPod Nano, only because I felt obsolete when I bought a shuffle right before the nano came out.

Just so we're clear on this, the new iPod is exactly as wide and tall as the previous generation, but thinner. It does appear wider in the promo shots just because of the screen proportions, but when you're actually holding it in your hand and have some context, it's probably a different story.

But that's what makes it ugly. They could've at least made the wheel a little bigger. You know, with proportions. And help. From me.
My iPod is lonesome.

Sweet. If I make an iPod, will you take me to the moon? Do papier-mâché iPods count?

But seriously, you actually expect them to hold off for nine months? I give them six. That's business, folks. Say you buy a nice, brand new iPod. It plays music, it looks shiny, only a few people roll their eyes at your passé white earbuds, and you love it.

Then the next day, Apple releases a brand new version of the iPod. So the heck what? Um, hello, you still have a shiny iPod that plays music and people still roll their eyes at you just like they did yesterday. Exactly how, I'd like you to explain, were you disadvantaged by the release of this awful new iPod?

weird how they never showed the price on the description there (probably like, $15,000) anyways, I agree that they should hold off for atleast 9 months before they send the Ipod the way of the Rocky movies (you know, that boxer dude?)


Even if it was cheap Im happy with my Vinyls and tapes.

I also just noticed that the only cars it seems to work in are all mega-buxx nessacery.

Yeah, iTunes 6 is awesome! I don't like the 5th generation iPod just because it's too wide. I know they were trying to make the screen wider, but still.

Lemme try this again: New iPod = exactly the same width as old iPod.

C'mon, people, try to keep up.

Then did the click wheel shrink? I'm confused. It still looks bigger to me.

No, the screen is just larger, making the whole thing look bigger. There was plenty of room in the 4G iPod to increase the screen to the size it is now.

It's not an mp3 player. It's just something you connect your mp3 player to. And it dances. And it has a speaker.
