New iPOD family (Sept07)

[theblueark]

iPod classic has 160GB storage.

Did you just say 160GB storage?

OMG that's 32 times the 5GB I have now on my Zen.

Stay away from the zens!

I have a 5gb zen neeon that completely died on me 5 times in a year. Warranty is over. I dont think they will let me change for another one. Wasted 400 bucks.

Im on an 30gb ipod video now. Happy with the conversion.

Still using a 1gb mp3 player...

Time for a convert!

All answers can be found here www.apple.com, and a summary page http://www.apple.com/ipod/whichipod/

Yep, lots of pple are saying the nano looks weird, but i guess it is because of its 2" screen. Not so "nano" anymore, but the bigger screen is something good.

Yes, the classic has two sizes, 80GB and 160GB. Great if you have a super huge jukebox collection of mp3 songs and mp4 videos.

The touch is using solid-state memory instead of harddrive, that explains its 16GB limit. Not fantastic for video, but it is still good for audio and photos (3.5" display), and of course, all those widgets, wi-fi functions, and more.

As for Creative, i think they have a lot to catch up... :wink:

yeh but if i wanted a bigger screen, then i'd jus go for classic or touch. i'd take a nano for its sleekness and if i purely wanted an mp3 player. but erks, no way am i gonna get the 3rg gen nano. eeks eeks eeks

the apple pple amaze me with their extreme designs, either way cool or way ugh

Its kinda weird though.The zune's offering mp3 exchange and a whole lot more.But in terms of interface and user-friendliness it sucks.

But ipods supposed to be even bigger,better.Looks like Mr jobs is settling.Hell,ipod touch is identical to Iphone.The new imac just has a new strip of black.Are there trying to exploit the brand name "apple".But apples supposed to revolutionise!LOL.

But Macs still rules for me.Asus comp bought 3 years ago obselete.Ibook g4 still going strong

j_m_s, hahahaha.... my zen micro crapped out on me right after warranty is over. there must be a time bomb built in!

neeon is flashbased or HD? so far my flash based zens are working fine.

hey sqoobs thanks for the info about the ipods...

anyways im interested in getting the classic but it looks like it's on the new generation ones???

im so confused with the generations stuff man... which one has evolved and which hasn't??

 

[marcdadrummer]

oh yeah and what about ipod video?? are there such thingS??

 

[amyhra09]

hey theres few good deals going over at the refurbishment centre.
I got one from there, way cheaper, and i dont find any faults with it.

Do check it out over at apple website!

 

[sidmontu]

generation is sort of like the version. currently, i'm like using the 30gb 5th gen ipod. 5.5gen is already out, which has the same looks but some additional software features. this ipod classic is 6th gen, looks great. nano, oh well, i still find it attractive enough (but not spacious enough for my songs hahaha). ipod touch is cool, but i'll buy iphone. i don't need another mp3 player, ipod 30gb 5th gen works perfectly for me

marcdadrummer,

You'll need to read thru' this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipod
Yep, the iPod product line has quite a long history, can be quite confusing.

hakimchi,

The new iMac is more than a new strip of black.
You need to go thru' Steve Jobs' keynote on the new iMac.
The "aluminium and glass" material combo, the new keyboard design, and many more.

I'm waiting for the new iMac to be shipped with the new Leopard OS, then, that'll be my first iMac. Got sick of the Windows, after nearly two decades... :roll:

 

[hakimchi]

Whatever it is,theres always a radical change in design in every mac.Clamshell to the zen-white approach.Change is becoming less obvious now in apples design and i'm hoping for all the best(i'm one self-righteous prick!lol)Anyway,yes,try mac.Its going to be one life-chaging experience for you!Guaranteed

But still,wrong timing lor.They should have comboed it with leopard!

Whoever's not using mac.haha.F9 and F10 button rules man!
(no offence meant)

 

[Mortichro]

can i ever trade in my 4gb ipod for that

 

[j_m_s]

edd bro. Mine Zen neeon is a Hard disk one.

 

[17wil]

oh goodness hope it isnt too expensive.

 

[theblueark]

Have to know which creative ones to buy, some of them famous for crapping out, some are great. I've got a friend working in creative so I know which to buy. I prefer their sound over the ipods.

Though I always fall back on my trusty 5 year old sony discman when i want GREAT sound.
