where did i get the information?

well i get this little magazine called information week, and well Apple sued the thinksecret folks for reavling their 'mac mini'. so i decided to check out the site and they have info on the new iPod... hope they dont get sued again ;-)

but enjoy. and lets hear what you think. (there's no 'concept' photos)

5G in brushed aluminum, rather than acrylic?

This might hurt the skin market a bit...

I just sent you a PM asking about this. Just delete it.... Noone is gonna need 80GB of space unless they are transferring big files from their computer. Well I guess there will always be someone who can use up all of that space...

Jeez, 80GB?! How the heck could you use that much space? I only use 2gb on my 20gb iPod.

I only have 1GB worth of songs. My amount of songs is about as much as a 1GB shuffle ipod can hold. A little more...

Wow, 1 or 2GB? I started ripping music in anticipation of my free iPod. I'm not half way through and I've got 6GB. I've been ripping songs at 196 so it's not because I'm using lossless. And yes it's taking forever.

BTW is there anyway to change the way iTunes stores the music on your PC? I have a ton of Soundtracks and iTunes creates a folder for each artist, that is a pain.

yes there is a way... right click go to info and click compilation for each soundtrack... it will store them all in one folder called compilations


that is how i do it

i believe that the suit was droped because they received the info about the mini mac in a legal way, so i doubt they will see another lawsuit from about about early release information.

i dunno

i think the 'brushed' metal thing is cool, id get it just for that -D

maybe this will push the 20GB's price down a bunch... ??

Oh damn...I didn't think about all the space ripping CDs is gonna take...how much HD space will be occupied by ripping, say, about 50 CDs?

i've ripped 600 cds, only at 30 GB, but i also did it at 128 bitrate, so about 45/50 GB at 192 bitrate
