yeah, ipod video and the new G5 imac has a built in isight video cam, and it has a remote control, that allows you to control music, videos, photos, and dvds. it makes the entire screen a huge menu, so its like watching a dvd or something. also, you can now dl tv shows from itunes 6. let the apple loving and apple hating begin... now. |
||||||||

I will always hate apple and their products, even though I own an ipod. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I hate Apple for being one step ahead. |

tits, I just bought a new iMac a few months ago :( |
||||||||
|
|

Didn't like how they moved the inputs on the back to allign horisontally, and bulging on the backpanel wasn't all that good looking either. Would love to have the remote though... |

I'd like some power mac updates too Apple. Pleeease? Yeah the new iPod and video downloads are a step in the right direction, think I'll wait one more generation to retire my 3rd generation iPod. Hopefully they'll have 80 gigers by then. |

I think people who buy iPods are amongst the biggest chumps on earth - the white earphone leads are ubiquitous like cattle branding. On their Apple store online, it costs £179 for a FOUR gig mp3 player... I paid £150 for a THIRTY gig mp3 player from Creative... not only that, but if you ever have a problem with a Creative product, their support team are good - my brother had a problem, sent his mp3 player to them and they sent him a new one just like that, as Tommy Cooper might say. I myself have never had a problem with my mp3 player - it can store data, & you can play your own playlists or play random tracks and fits in my pocket nicely. |

that ipod video looks pretty slick.. everyday i find a new reason to suspect i've accidentally slipped into some futuristic world.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And those ridiculous arm bands |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I spotted those on the Apple website... they just seem to have become obsessed with style and slickness. |
||||||||
|
|

I have never seen so many people actively making an effort to display their iPods, from the shitty white earbuds to holding it in their hands everywhere they go. |

i'm still lunking around my 1st gen ipod, and the only time i use the earbuds is when i'm riding my bike with a helmet somewhat obscuring them. i don't give two toots about the style, i honestly enjoy apple products, and even a 5 gig ipod holds a great amount of tunes and works great as an external harddrive. this new ipod video thing is something my girlfriend had thought was the future of the ipod since the photo came out. it's so obvious! i don't really have much use for it though, but a new ipod may be in my near future. maybe a fourth gen, just to get some more storage space and longer battery life. |

i threw those ugly white things out straight away. anyway, why would you want to watch a video on your eyepod. the damn thing drives me crazy with photos, i will try to look through mine and the fucking backlight goes out. it's bullshit, i don't want to reset it just to scroll through some god damn photos. |
||||||||

still no new powerbooks - come on apple!!! I´ve had enough of all these "in your sofa"-products and "I´m so hip & cool"-iPods... I mean what´s next - an real apple-tv?!?!? |

Music Videos cost $1.99. 2 bucks for 3-4 minutes of visuals? At that rate a two hour movie should cost $60-80. All those of reducing the price of a video say I! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"All those for reducing the price..." eeerr, who cares? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Apple should sod off. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Music videos should be free from iTunes, because basicly they are just advertisements. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I agree. Maybe if they were High Def and fullscreen then 2$ would be a good price. But they are basically a few inches across your screen currently. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
iPod video is just stupid. Why is the screen more or less the same size? That's fucked up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Same here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They should turn the ipod on its side and use a wider screen like the PSP. But then what would happen to the wonderful click wheel of theirs? Maybe it could be moved to a dangling remote. |

I bought mine stole and without those nasty plugs, I use decent headphones :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Damn. I was thinking about replacing my iPod mini with the nano but the alternatives has multiplied. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i reckon i'll get me one of those new imac's, once Christmas is out of the way. My powerbook is starting to get a bit long in the tooth. Fuck the ipod though. Why do i want to watch a music video anyway? Well, maybe the new sugababe's video i would ;) |
||||||||
|

I just sing wherever I go |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

which is why other people buy iPods lol |
||||||||
|

i think you guys are failing to disconnect a product / company from the deuche bags who buy their products if i didnt buy things cause people wore armbands, or white headphones, or put ryan adams on it - i wouldnt own anything fuck people, hard i like my ipod...yeah its not perfect, but what is? - i also love my ibm thinkpad and think it makes i / power books look as silly and art-faggy as they are just my opinion |

My iPod works great, backs up my files, and has the quickest interface of the mp3 players I've used. It is very easy to zip around to hear what you want. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
You must have overlooked the point I made about Apple charging ridiculous prices ... £179 for four gigs as opposed to £150 for thirty gigs... nice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
congratulations on saving some money then |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"some" money? If we use £179 as the price for 4 gigs, then it would come out as £1342 for 30 gigs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, except its not like that. You're talking solely about the mini, (which I think is silly as well) but you seem to forget there is 20-40 gig models as well. While yes, still somewhat more expensive then what youre comparing it to, not THAT far off. |
||||||||
|

a crummy commercial? son of a bitch! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I'd like to know WHY they are 'somewhat' more expensive. Didn't they have to introduce the Shuffle because their iPods didn't have a 'random' feature, and that the Shuffle could ONLY be played in Random mode? I also hate the way that the generic term for mp3 player seems to be 'iPod' ... even on the BBC they say iPod instead of mp3 player. Sucks. |

"I'd like to know WHY they are 'somewhat' more expensive." I guess they have the popularity to do so. It obviously sells, and people pay that price, so I guess it'd be foolish on their part to not get as much as they could. "Didn't they have to introduce the Shuffle because their iPods didn't have a 'random' feature, and that the Shuffle could ONLY be played in Random mode?" The older models didnt have a random feature, but an OS update fixed that. Also, the shuffle has the option of being played in either random or ordered (you must set the order on your comp, as there is no display) "I also hate the way that the generic term for mp3 player seems to be 'iPod' ... even on the BBC they say iPod instead of mp3 player. Sucks" that is stupid. bad journalism. |

You would have thought they would learn from the Marge Simpson/Chanel suit episode... By positioning themselves as a manufacturer of luxury fashion items they will suffer long term when the kids no longer find them cool. |

This is precisely what is happening to FCUK at the moment. |
