Re: Why change the iPod, when you can have two products?

Cool! I guess it solves the battery drain problem. Wonder how many songs it holds?

You know you're in love with Apple when solar powered generators named the powerpod start looking like iMacs....


I'll take 3!!

Ok, ProPod then, or something.

It won't be FW800 for a little while longer.
I want new updates really soon and i mean really really soon.

17 inch iMacs dont have FW800... only the 17inch PB and the new powermacs. which is a prime reasone that the new ipods will not have ieee1394b.

a 40gb does seem reasonable. as everyone neglects to mention/remember the ipod is not JUST an mp3 player, its a portable hard drive, it stores other files as well. you will probably see fw800 in the new updated ipods in about a year with color screen and what ever else apple descides to add (bluetooth, touchscreens, or whatever).

Hmm...I wonder if there will be a major update at MWNY, what it will be. Color screen? Touchscreen?

According to my calendar, it is February 25. I don't see any new iPods.

Indeed.

$50 price cut on the 10 and 20 that they sell today could prolly help them a bit.

I'm personally waiting for a new 15" powerbook... but thought of waiting until april or later...makes me cringe...a bit.

15"?! How about delivering the 17" PBooks!

People are waiting for new 15" Powerbooks to appear? I just ordered my 17" Powerbook, and according to my order summary, it'll get delivered on or before 4/8/2003. OUCH! That's a crock that they were announced in the beginning of January, and it'll be till late March/early April until they're shipped. This kind of reminds me of the original XServe announcement.
