Huh. I bought mine like Sept 27 to take to Hawaii for a friend (No Apple store on his island). They said the new ones were due to be released sometime in October. It hasn't been opened and I want him to be able to mail-exchange it for a new one (because the new ones come with the color he wants, and with ear pods instead of ear buds).
Thanks!
Thanks!
I'd like to see a "real" photo of the new ipods.
And if they really need itunes 10.7 as the requirements say...
I'd like a yellow one...

The US Apple Store guy said the new ones did. The question was why would anyone buy the pods by themselves for $50 when for that same $50 you could buy the new shuffle with ear pods. A free shuffle essentially

Because they're $30....
Lol, I guess that would make a lot more sense. See what I get for listening to an Apple store salesman instead of just looking it up on the Apple site myself.

But the original earphones are $30 too, but still the EarPods are more expensive to make.

The new shuffles DO NOT come with the new ear pods. I bought two of them yesterday (one pink, one black) and they both came with the older era buds.
PS: This might be the best pink apple has put out , it's not a gaudy girly pink, but a more subdued almost rose color
It is more muted than that pic indicates. I was at the Apple Store earlier today and looked at all of the new iPods in person. The red is actually a bit brighter than that pic indicates as well.
I decided to buy the purple shuffle for times when I don't want to listen to Pandora at the gym. The purple looks more pinkish than purple to me though but I love pink so its great. I used it last night and thought it was great. I'm already bumping up to the 2GB limit though.
Just my two cents, the yellow isn't very nice. Kinda greenish, a bit lurid. All the others are very nice however. I'd recommend trying to take a look in person first.
