It Was Inevitable - iPod Video

Apparently Intel have the technology to make a 6Ghz processor, but they can't make it reliable, how do you know it wasn't the same for the iPod?

Because I can play Doom (the full 3d version) on my g3 ipod from 2002, and play video on the oldest of none colour / colour ipods.

All they've done is added 1" to the screen, used a newer version of the Dell laptop hard disk, and shrunk the scroll wheel - none of those things are technological advances, they could have released this same ipod back in '03 had they wanted, but they knew full well they could slide in another couple of generations between now and then.

The point i'm making is how apple know exactly how to pull in customers, it's not a complaint against the company as such, your right, they ALL do it, but apple do have the marketing and hype down to an art.

Belive me, i have nothing against them, I respect them in a way for how clever they are.

what next ? (Y) i pod with camera ,ipod phone

There's already the Moterola (sp?) phone with iTunes in, which is Apple endorsed... and....

Speaking of which, I wonder if Mod661 wants to take his nano back and get one of these, after returning his iPod Photo 'cause the nano came out :turned:

Haha.. Apple have it. It's being replaced for free 'cos it's dented and the "battery isnt very good" hah.

Then I'll sell it on eBay and buy the new one Woot woot.

Let's hope the new iPod isn't as shit as the Nano has been at denting lol...

He has a point, everytime you wanted to watch on your PC, instead of leaving it to be found by your over curious family, you could just link you iPod up the the PC and watch through that...
