120gb?

Peasant!

You've got the 160gb iPod over your side of the pond now, surely?!

Oh yes...with a 40 hour battery life...I don't know if that means they are trying to tell me that it can play 40 hours at a time, or if it will need another battery after 40 hours...

probably the latter...

I'll be able to tell you after tomorrow - ordered a 160GB last week, it should arrive (cheers UPS... ) tomorrow morning!

I still miss my iPod Mini :(

Where'd you order it from? Is it incoming from the good ol' US?!

Is it actually smaller than the current 80gb video iPod?

And is it really only in a metal finish??

So many questions, so little time!

Nah, Apple UK - UPS should (in theory) be delivering it tomorrow - they forgot to use the doorbell on Tuesday, and so my brother (who was in the garden) didn't hear them knock... (Use Royal Mail, people - at least you can then go and pick up the parcel if out)!

Good question on whether it's smaller - don't *think* so?

Yup, metal finish - either in silver or black, no more white iPods!

Motorola RAZR

Though would my USA bound phone work if I went to Europe?

motorola RAZR phones ROCKS, specially the new (model) RAZR. it's worth getting.

it would not work unless you have a sim card in your phone. and it all depends on your carrier.

Got myself an iPhone in the US couple of weeks ago and unlocked it t'other day. Nice design but the phone side of it is dissappointing, niggly things like text messaging etc. Not bad for the price tho, and orks great in the Dension iPod adaptor in the car ....... no more cd's lying about.

bollocks to all of the above!!

Did you join John Sim in the cast of "Life on Mars", Kershie???

we've got a peach colured one upstairs. boss mate. takes ages to ring someone though. mind you we never use it.

I've got an iPod, but I only use it for when I need an NO fix. [As in, it's only got NO in it.] Meanwhile I still prefer my c.d. player, as I've got no patience [or a decent paycheck ] for an iPod with, God willing, all my music in it. And having over 300-400 c.d.'s...

I'll stick to making mix c.d.'s for myself and friends, thank you very much.

Otherwise, I just have a cell with a camera and text/IM. That's all the fancy phone stuff I really need.

The iPhone doesn't really look like much use to me, but that's my opinion. And touch-screens!? I'll stick to my *soon-to-be-here* touch-screen computer at work!!

...someday I'll eventually graduate to an iPod...

The only thing NO related on it is the Best Remixes. The rest of it is a collection of post-punk downloads that I've found elsewhere. But I do use my iPod nano to get my post-punk fix.

How do you feel about apples , oranges and bananas , Cozzie?

People used to pay a lot more for their sound systems prior to that... now, a little thing that costs 300$ and a decent pair of speakers will do.

Some people say 120 GB is way too much, well, this gives you actually the chance to put your songs in a loseless format... which is not bad.

Plus, if you use video, that's starting to use a lot of space.

To be honest, I really dig the iPod touch... so I should stay away from electronic stores when it will be actually available.

big article in yesterdays toronto star paper about the new fatboy nano if you can get that near you... apparently the old ones hadn't been available in the eaton centre for a while, but the new ones only arrived saturday

And the colors for the new iPod shuffle and the iPod nano are hideous! I wonder why Steve Jobs changed the color scheme from neon to pastel. I'm not so sure if green, or periwinkle purple (or whatever) would sell. I'm happy with the neon green iPod nano, which I bought for my last birthday. I have no plans to buy the iTouch or the iPhone. I respect Apple for making computers, though. I got myself a white MacBook a few days ago. Way better than the IBM.

Also, have any of you received an iPhone discount from Steve Jobs (after customers complained)?

The point would be that the iPhone is only available in the US ;)

And the iPod Touch has Wi-Fi.

pretty sure the iphone will be available in the uk.

the itouch looks nice, but it will never be large enough memory wise for me. impressed with the smaller size of the new ipods though, once my one dies will have to look into a replacement...

With regards to the 160GB iPod: very nice new pretty interface as well (well, the menu structure's the same, but colourful animated icons all over the shop), and the video playback seems a lot smoother! :)

Oh, yeah, iPhone contract just won by O2 in the UK (announced today), so it'll be appearing in the UK shortly...
