Yes, finally Apple has released the long-awaited video iPod. I know that many people here were waiting for this, yet it seems like a lot of people are dissatisfied . What were your expectations? Bigger screen? Touch navigation, etc?
As for my self, I couldn't be happier with how the video ipod turned out. Sure a sideways wide screen with touch screen controls would have been cool at first, but I really think I would get sick of it in the long term. The iPod is a successful player because it plays music well. I can more or less navigate my iPod without looking. My touch screen remote control for my TV, not so much. Its annoying! I would hate to have to look at my iPod all the time just to see where the next button is. I'm very glad its still a music player, and the new thinner design is pretty amazing. Anyway, just my thoughts.
