Thread: The new iPod.

  1. #1

    Default The new iPod.

    http://www.apple.com/ipodshuffle/

    Ta-da! This can be a great alternative to people here don't listen to music a lot but would like a music player that keeps them "trendy." Someone on eBay is already selling one and it's up to $61 minutes after the announcement.

    I haven't had a chance to try it, but I'll probably do so later today. It will work with pretty much anything that has a dock connector, like iCarPlay Plus and such. I might persuade my brother to get one, since he doesn't have a lot of money but wants a decent MP3 player.

    In other news, Apple released a Mini Mac sans keyboard, monitor, and mouse. Investors weren't impressed and Apple's stock dropped a little over $2.70.

    Are you sure you don't work for Apple?

    Of course not. And to prove it...

    The iPod Shuffle is still a bit expensive. Even if it uses Flash memory, I was hoping the 512MB iPod would be $79 and the 1GB iPod would be $99.

    But it's still a nice way to play music and stuff without the "bulk" of an iPod Mini(yes, it's 1/3rd the size of a iPod Mini).

    Ah, a teeny tiny iPod, "The MP3 player for people who like to lose small things".

    This wins

    So now I don't get to choose what music I listen to? I'm even less interested in this than I was in the original iPod. :rolleyes2

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    Hmm, I don't think I'd purchase this. Looks like a cheap version in which I would never be completely satisfied with owning.

    <3 original iPod.

    Ugh. That's silly, and completely unnecessary. What's the point, when it chooses your music for you? I'd rather not blow over 200 bucks on something that's unpredictable, and that I probably won't even like. I hate how everything's getting super small, as well. I want to be able to see what the hell I'm holding and doing on it.*sigh* I'm done.
