Bwahaha, "802.11b/g -- "Others have done this and it's failed. We understand why it's failed, and we know what to do make it successful. "

Nice job on the Zune slam, Jobs

So, with the iPod classic at $349, and the iPhone at $600, where the hell are they gonna price this thing? I mean, if it's $500, isn't it basically an iPhone that you don't have to activate? Can't you already buy those some places online?

The capacities on these will be greatly reduced, methinks... priced the same as the 'classic', but with lower capacities.

so they have some Beatles and Lennon showing...I'm guessing the final announcement is The Beatles coming to itunes?

wifi antenna looks kind of crappy...wish they could have come up with something better than a window on the back, but still sweet

I'm betting ~$400-450 ... halfway between a 160gb Classic ($350) and the smaller iPhone ($500)

If it's flash-based, I would love Apple to put a 16gb+ chip in there please!

Very nice, 16gb! ...and I called it at $400, wow I can't believe that they actually priced it that way.

I mean, like I said, I don't think they really have a choice. If they'd put 60GB or more, it would have cost as much, if not more than an iPhone. No one would have bought that.

so stupid, i mean come on dude it has to be flash based to make it that small, and i have 8gb and it's plenty, omg you must be that person that thinks they need all 400,000 songs in their music collection with them at ALL times.. i'd glady sacrifice size for speed, wifi, touch capabilities... not to mention a 32gb flash based device would be insanely priced

Ok, so expect a larger capacity flash-based Touch sometime next year ... I seriously doubt they'll put a HDD in one. That's what they sell Classics for.

My 80 GB is maxed ... so yeah, I'm "that person." I like being able to access almost anything I'd want to hear, whenever I want. Some people want to listen to 20 or 30 albums, I want to listen to 2000 or 3000.

20 or 30 albums? what are you comparing it to a 1gb device?

16gb device can hold ~136 albums, and a video is only about the size of 4 albums

Well, apart from adding more storage ... the one other thing that would make this even better is support for bluetooth stereo headphones.

But still, it's awesome, and I know what I'm getting myself for Christmas.

I think I'm gonna hang on to my 3G for a while longer. 32GB iPhone with 3G and GPS, and I'll bite.

in that case you might as well hold out for 160gb, bluetooth, radio, expansion slot as well.

136 albums is still only about 1/10 of my actual album collection (not even my downloaded music)

I was just holding out for the "iPod version of the iPhone" and that day has come.

I am quite content with flash. I am too harsh on my tech devices to be carrying a tiny hard disk around with me. I will gladly give up the storage for the ability to jog/hike with it and such.
