I understand that for its price it should offer more, but jeeze to me 8 gb is huge. like I think it eventually becomes like you just can't leave it alone, changing the track constantly, too much choice...?
I love the UI alot... but I know there are other players that sound better.
I'm waiting for the 16gb MicroSD to go on sale because my 8gb Sanza with an additional 8gb MicroSD isn't even half my music. An iPod classic might hold all of my music, but for that price, I could just buy like, 12 Sanza clips when they go on special on Woot.
iPods break waaay too easily for me anyway. I had my 30gb break five times within the manufacturer's warranty...and every time it was something different. Played out of one ear, lost it's image, froze, no boot, skipping tracks, etc. The one thing that did surprise me, however, was it survived a rainstorm overnight. Worked fine for months afterwards.
I think the WiFi feature is pretty interesting, but I'd much prefer to just get a a Blackberry Bold for that price seeing as I can do a lot more things on the new Blackberry. I'm also not sold on the whole heat sensitive issue. It would make a lot more sense to me if the iPod was pressure sensative. I have such a massive amount of heat in my hands that I end up hitting about 3 keys at once when text paging on an iPhone.
My biggest complaint about all of the above is that working in retail, you learn there's absolutely no profit in Mac products - it's all gross sales. I'm not fond of that type of capitalism, although I gotta hand it to Mr. Jobs, I admire his marketing skills...
But on the upside to the iPod touch, you can't get a shiny lightsaber that goes WHOOSH WHOOSH on anything else.
