2/08- After Apple announced a memory bump to the iPhone & iPod Touch. Funny how thigs have changed in 4 years.


"Why did he call it "WiFi Mobile Device" instead of iPod?


Silly little monkey! People want iPods not "WiFi Mobile Devices," if you try to rebrand it like that you'll kill it"


"You know... I think my 4Gb iPhone will become a collectable... It's so unique.
I keep telling myself that since it's so tiny"



flash footprint for 32gb might be too big with all the additional hardware to make it a phone and not an iPod.



Don't understand what's the point with wifi. Maybe it's for free in U.S.??
In Europe you have to pay as for normal mobile phones"



First off, it makes no difference in you're under contract, the iPhone is not subsidized so it costs the same regardless.
Secondly, Apple has zero obligation to make this process easy for you, who is hacking their phones to work in a way they did not intend.



I've yet to see a single ipod classic in the wild - I think it's only a matter of time until the touch becomes the only full-sized ipod.
---i would like to have a click wheel until there are iPods for sale. i love to pause, play, skip, adjust volume without taking the iPod out of my pocket. .


Don't think the classic is going anywhere fast, by the time January 2010 swings round 500GB+ drives will easily fit in an iPod and be cheap enough.
---I agree. I don't think HDs are going to cease to be used anytime in the near future. The cost to storage ratio is not there yet. It will be someday, but not for 10 years at the earliest.



Big John: They have doubled the capacity today which is pretty cool. In the coming months we will see 3G and maybe GPS. Maybe even a slightly bigger cross-over device that resembles the fabled tablet.
Don't get upset that you haven't got exactly what you want today, it will come if you are patient. THe current iPhone is bloody brilliant, way better than anything out there and I use the Edge all the time without it driving me mad.



32GB huh......double that....then add another 10GB and I'm sold. Until then this is a gimmick as a replacement to the traditional iPod.
