Man o man, that's a sweet device! Guess I can quite complaining about it being locked to a cellphone. I actually watched the video on Apple's website where the seemingly sleeping individual walked you through all the new things they put into it "just for you!" That last one's kind of a joke, like they really added wireless to the iPod for you or YouTube, for that matter. It stinks of a major deal made with Google (esp. since the default search engine is Google, not that I mind since that's what I use most of the time) and yet another way for Apple to milk micro-transactions. I think they kinda stole the idea of wifi from the Zune, but they left out the feature that you can share songs with other iPods; e.g., like the Zune can.
I so want one of these, I just wish it had more memory. Though I'm sure it's a lot cheaper to throw a few SSD chips on board than to have to include a microdrive, not to mention it makes the device a whole lot lighter, thinner, and energy-efficient. It's a little pricey for the 16GB model, though I will get one eventually. I also like the re-engineered Nano; perfect for the gym to the commute to work! Oh man, Apple sure dropped a major cash-cow into the market, and just in time for Christmas (and my birthday!).
BTW Want to see some goofy figures, check out how you can fit more songs on your 8GB Nano than the 8GB iTouch, but less pictures and two hours more video on a device with a larger screen; i.e., higher resolution! Considering how they expect you to get your songs and videos from the same store, I wonder how they tricked this out?
